AU's (or not), insecure Rodney / one night stand

[thispe.livejournal.com]

I was visiting my aunt for the week, she has no internet and the only thing to read at her house are romance novels, which probably explains my sudden craving for the following type of story.

I'm searching for Rodney/John AU's (or Rodney anyone as long as it's slash) where John is a rich businessman/CEO/Rodney's Boss etc. perhaps with a certain reputation as a player who at one point or another seduces Rodney or at least tries/wants to. John wants something serious, so does Rodney but Rodney thinks he's only another notch on the bedpost (insecure Rodney would be the greatest). Misunderstanding and angst ensues until the final happy end.

That's basically it, I would be very grateful for any and all recommendations who are remotely like this. Honestly, I would be satisfied with any story where Rodney thinks he is just another conquest/just an one night stand and/or thinks someone like that wouldn't be interested in him, it doesn't necessarily have to be AU.

Thank you!

Beau of the Ball (http://community.livejournal.com/undermistletoe/108006.html) by velocitygrass

Sheppard wanted them to go into the ballroom together, with Rodney as his companion for the evening, a spot normally reserved for high society ladies who combined beauty, grace and intelligence, not to mention one honest-to-god European princess three years ago. This couldn't be happening to him.

It was not some unworldly force hurtling its way to the earth that would change John Sheppard’s life forever, but one lone man, someone literally thrown at John’s feet, tossed away like yesterday’s rubbish, a man named Rodney McKay.

Thank you very much! I already knew For Better or For Worse which is fabulous but Beau of the Ball was all shiny and new for me, I loved it. Thanks for the rec!

Thank you for linking this story, it's one of my favorites of the genre and usually the first I turn to when I get a craving for SGA historical romance.

Hmmm, have you read the teeny sequel snippet?

Maybe she could be encouraged to write more . . .

This might be pushing it- the one night stand thing happened twenty years ago, Rodney got his heart broke but moved on, and now John's back.
