Uphill Battle
by Anais Nin
Summary: M/L PG The story is set in Germany, before, during and after WWII (1939-1945, Europe). Max is German, Liz is Jewish. They were friends before Hitler came into power, but their different nationalities drove them apart. Wonderful, heartbreaking story.

Destiny's Circle by Kath7

This story is the only one I've ever read that made me hate Kyle. That alone is enough to give Kath props, lol.

But this story is great, and gets you emotinally vested in the characters. A wonderful piece of fanfiction set in midieval times. "Midieval Mayhem involving our favorite Roswellians", the author's own words.

This story does not dissapoint, and is well worth the time.
