The Accidental Guide is a Jim/Blair story by Spikedluv. It was written for au100 prompts and Harlequin Style's Mistaken Identity Challenge. It was originally posted to 852 Prospect, which was then imported to AO3.

Summary

Jim wasn't looking for a guide, but then he met Blair Sandburg.

Reactions and Reviews

Known sentinels and guides, required bonding, red-hot sex, mistaken identities? Man, oh, man, this reads like a bit of lusciously kinked-out Jane Austen.

“Jim opened his hotel room door to find a young man with long curly brown hair that was pulled back into a ponytail, instead of the room service he'd ordered.

The kid was wearing a soft green and blue plaid flannel shirt that had seen better days and a pair of tight blue jeans. A blue t-shirt peeked out of the one undone button at his neck, and above that, a tempting thatch of chest hair. Not exactly what he'd been expecting from an agency that claimed to offer men who'd take your breath away, until he smiled and it lit up gorgeous blue eyes.

"Hi," the kid said, lifting his hand in a little wave, then reaching up to play with the silver hoops in his left ear.”[1]

This is the fic that inspired me to write Point of Contact.[2]
