As Jane and Maura start to settle into their life together in...1800s Arizona , they weather out the ups and downs of any relationship, grateful to be sure of how much they are loved by each other- but they find it more difficult than anticipated to escape Jane's outlaw past. What they didn't anticipate at all were complications from Maura's. EPILOGUE ADDED.

AU, 1959. Revolves around teenaged Rizzles: Jane fighting her attraction to Maura, and Maura, once she figures it out, trying to get her to go with it. Actions speak louder than words. Because I love a slow burn and the journey of figuring it all out. EPILOGUE POSTED in two parts.

(one-shot.) Kate visits Gibbs at the holidays, and paints the wooden toys he's made for a local children's shelter, and he becomes more approachable in the process.

Dr. Isles is brought to BPD while Detective Rizzoli is on leave, mourning the death of her husband. On her return, Jane is barely a shadow of the charismatic, fun-loving person Maura had heard so much about. Everybody assumes they know why this is. Maura becomes the first to learn all the reasons why, and is the first one who truly gets Jane Rizzoli. *TEMPORARILY discontinued :(
