Title: Shire Morns series
Author: Elderberry Wine
Rating: NC-17
Summary: A (long) series charting Frodo and Sam's relationship from its beginning shortly after the Party to the start of the Quest.
Comments: Long is an understatement, but set aside lots of time and it is so worth it. Frodo and Sam go through the trials and tribulations of being together, and deal with the expectations of friends and family. Contains lots of beautifully realised secondary characters.
If you don't have time to dedicate to the whole thing, then Sweet Cider, at the very least, is a must-read.

Title: Let it Be
Author: Cassiopeia
Rating: PG
Summary: Frodo must make another difficult choice. Sequel to Time To Be.
Comments: The first part is an absolute classic; beautiful but agonising. Personally I've always thought it's better taken on its own than with the sequel, but I've included that too for completeness.

Title: A Spring After Winter
Author: Cassiopeia
Rating: NC-17
Summary: New love is never easy.
Comments: Tagged 'established' because our hobbits are already together at the start of the fic; however, this is primarily about the trials of a new relationship. Contains a lovely altruistic Frodo who thinks he's more emotionally mature than he is.
