Wish You Were Here is teamfic by pocky_slash, conducted as a series of postcards, e-mails, reports, and sticky notes during the week Gwen is away on her honeymoon.
Fair Game, by Mimarie, is awesome, angsty, lovely Jack/Gwen kink. I love Jack/Gwen, but I've read very little I actually like, because most of it very much stands outside of the actual constraints of those characters in the series. This is that rare fic that takes them on head on, and it really, really works.
Sam Storyteller does awesome stuff, but most of his Torchwood is Jack/Ianto. You might still want to check out his master list at some point, but for a couple of specific recs, try The Quiet Room (I don't even know how to describe this, but I think you'll really like it) and Job Description (Ianto/everyone, but not all at once, and it's weirdly lovely and utterly devestating).
I recommend And Seven for a Secret to pretty much everybody, just because it's so incredibly well written and so very Torchwood and so very Jack . . . despite being written set during World War II. Complete with Indiana Jones-style dime novel Nazis. *g*
Weirdly, since I discovered Torchwood not long before Children of Earth aired, most of what I have bookmarked turns out to be from that point forward. So much of what came before was Jack/Ianto, and because I wasn't around in real time, I wasn't always able to catch the rest very well. But it's a start, I guess.
And I think I'm going to let somebody else do Sherlock. I only read lightly in that fandom, and my eyes are crossing.
