That's a tall order. Mrs Muir's
Sanctuary is one of my favorites and I totally get why you want more of that sort of thing.

It's been awhile since I read it so I don't recall if Spike had secrets or not. It seems like he did. He was older and owned a bar...
Little London by caatjehttp://spikeluver.com/SpuffyRealm/viewstory.php?sid=16590&warning=NC-17Summary: AU Story. 24 year old virgin, Buffy, never had a boyfriend and is shy around men. Not knowing how to act around them or to get their attention. Spike's your typical 'bad boy' though soft on the inside. He owns a bar where Buffy and her friends have been coming to the last two weeks.
