Title: This Perfect Mistake (17/17)
Rating: FRT/PG-13
Pairing: Hotch/Elle
Spoilers: Indeterminate timeline in early S5; to be safe, let’s say up to 5x07 “The Performer.”
Disclaimer: None if it is mine, except for my original characters
Summary: After leaving the BAU, Elle set out to New York to begin a new life. But when she finds herself in danger with no one else to turn to but her former boss, past collides with present as she finds refuge with a soul as broken as her own—and faces greater peril than she ever has before.
Notes: That’s right, this fic is finally complete! Thank you so much to my LJ-less betas (you know who you are) for your help and encouragement, and a huge thanks to everyone who’s commented on this! You guys have been a huge factor in motivating me, and I sincerely hope you like the end!
Feedback: Is better than pizza rolls.
