Have you tried reading the Romance team's entries at mcshep_match? I haven't read every single one (yet), but if you work your way back most of them should have just enough angst to make it interesting, and plenty of romance, schmoop and/or hurt/comfort to please.
Um. I'm off to make up with my lack of voting now, but I'll try to rec you something specific too.
Thank you, funny you should say that I'm just in the middle of doing that right now. Right back at ya with the lack of voting \o/ but I thought I'd read 'em all first and then vote. Something specific would be great, thanks.
You could also check out Slow Road to Enlightenment (http://mmmchelle.livejournal.com/250011.html) by mmmchelle; it'd the McShep almost-relationship through Rodney's eyes from mid-season 2 through most of season 3. Excellent story, and too angsty, I don't think. Just enough. ;-)

The Way the Light Catches (http://www.reversathon.com/Romance-blind.html), lost in the dark together, mmmmmm.
...and I just noticed how many stories I have neglected to read. Darnit. I'd better get on it. Sorry for the small number of recs, but hope you like!
