Strangers by Garrae reviews
"Beckett took a look at him. He was faintly familiar. Neurons started to twang in the back of her head. Her voice was calm and very cool. Her brain had just exploded. This was Richard Castle. Richard-freaking-Castle, right there next to her. He was top of her Freebie Five list. And she liked the books. Loved the books. And she was single." AU meeting, pre-series. 3 shot. Pornado.

And, of course, there's a spark between Kate & Rick, but he's currently seeing his on-again, off-again Kyra Blaine, which makes things a bit more complicated.
