Bella Swan has been living with and working for renowned business man, Edward Cullen, to pay her way through college. The problem? She's his chamber maid. The complication? She's in love with him and he treats he like the hired help.

Edward is married and devoutly Catholic, but what happens when he meets the love of his life two years later? Will he follow his heart or will he honor his past commitments and stay true to his faith? AU/AH, B/E/T, A/J, R/E

Bella and Edward are reunited after breaking up five years ago.  Can Bella move beyond the pain he caused her to accept him into her life again or is the past too painful to overcome.

When Bella moves to Forks, she's surprised that there's someone living in the house across from hers... and even more so that her window faces directing into someone else's! Will these two window buddies be able to get over their naivity and shyness to discover that they're meant to be? AU, AH BxE all the way... enjoy!

Used to feeling lonely in a crowded room, international film star Edward Cullen meets a certain journalist that captures his attention.  Soon afterwards, she's gone ... or so he thinks. 

Four weeks before her wedding to Edward, Bella is frustrated. She knows there's little-to-no chance of getting him to bend his rules and boundaries now, but there's no harm in fantasizing about what could happen later. So she begins compiling a list of things that she and Edward can do together once they're happily married. She's surprised to find she might be able to cross some things off earlier than she thought...

In the wake of his divorce from Tanya, Edward's life spirals downward into failure and depression.  Even his music has abandoned him. Without love or music, he starts to wonder if there's any reason to go on.  Then he meets a troubled young woman who seems to understand what he's going through. Life has stolen all hope from these two lost souls, but can they find in each other a reason to live?

Scarred by events in her past, Bella relies heavily on her best friend and roommate, Jasper. When Jasper falls in love with a girl named Alice, Bella is excited for him but can’t help but wonder – where will she fit in? Her answer partially arrives in the form of Alice's older brother, Edward, but as their friendship grows, Bella comes to realize that she may be too broken to give Edward everything he needs.  Canon pairings, AH/AU

This contains explicit content, elements which may be offensive to some, and dark themes.  It is intended for a mature audience.

First comes love. Then comes marriage. Then comes...a baby carriage? Isn't that what everyone wants? Bella and Edward cherished their love, their freedom, and their mobility; neither felt the need to be encumbered with children for years to come. Suddenly one of them has a change of heart and is ready for some baby-making. Will the other go along with the idea, just for the sake of their marriage? Or will they truly find that what they wanted all along had been right in front of them? This is a story about deciding what is most important in your life, and doing whatever necessary to get it.

Here's another amazing pic that fits in with Dark Side of the Moon perfectly -thank you to JohannaL for ID'ing the author:  http://smirks-works.livejournal.com/ check out her (I assume) other manips - she's a genius!

Updated November, 2009

This story is now COMPLETE!

Dark Side of the Moon is my version of New Moon from Edward’s point of view.  Witness how Edward agonized over leaving Bella, hunted for Victoria, faced the Volturi, and came to realize that with Bella was where he was meant to be. 

This tormented story has been a part of my life for about a year and a half – and what a ride it’s been!  Meant to be canon and in character, I hope you enjoy angsty Edward and his suffering during New Moon.  As unhappy as Bella was during this time, Edward suffered so much more (I think).  So be sure and crack open a fresh box of tissues before reading!

 Thank you to everyone for all the reviews, especially to those of you who reviewed each and every chapter!  Your support and loyalty have been the driving force to me getting this project finished – and I hope it’s lived up to all of your expectations.

Love you all,

PS.  As one last thank you, I’ve posted a formatted, printable copy of Dark Side of the Moon at http://bit.ly/2vLHMi, as will also post as an electronic version suitable for viewing on a kindle or MobiReader.  I’m also posting a ‘Director’s Cut’ that includes citations of all of Bella’s quotes from Twilight, research notes, and even funny comments from my betas in this version in the same directory.

Use of the dialog from the series is just for clarity - Stephenie Meyer owns all things twilight!  I'm making absolutely nothing from this work.

Bella and Edward are "buddies" and while Bella wants more, Edward pulls away every time she tries to make things more official.  Then one evening, she meets a tall, dark, handsome man out in a club, and he promises her everything she always wanted.  Will Bella take it, even if it's not with the person she thought it would be with?  And what will Edward do when his friend is suddenly no longer available?

Bella is reunited with her childhood friend Alice under unlikely circumstances. When sparks fly between Bella and Alice's older brother, will she be able to resist? And what secrets is he hiding?

Isabella Swan never imagined that one night at a club would change her life, that it would jeopardize everything she had worked so hard for, everything she held dear. If only she had known when she met Edward Masen that it would be the beginning of the end of life as she knew it, perhaps she would have turned the other way. Then again, maybe not?
