What’s a girl to do when she determines that there aren’t any good men left?  She creates them.  Bella Swan was unlucky in love, so she started creating dream men in fiction.  She wrote about the kind of man she’d love to meet and fall in love with, and for the amount of time it took to write her romance novels, she felt like she had a love of her own.  It wasn’t real, but in her opinion, real love wasn’t something that was within her grasp, so the fantasy was better than nothing. 

One day, suffering from writer’s block, she went to the corner café for a change of scenery.  When a cowboy tripped over her purse, she was so captivated by his appearance, that she had inspiration for a new character in her latest book.  He walked away with only a few words in her direction, and all she had was the visual of his green eyes and wild hair to go on, but for her, it was enough to fuel her imagination.

The stars at night are big and bright…deep in the heart of Texas.  Life holds mysteries that one can never fathom, and maybe there’s such a thing as fate.  Maybe, every once in a while, fate gives a hand to a lonesome cowboy and a romantic at heart…sometimes with a little help from a rabbit.

AH/OOC.  Canon couples.  Rated NC-17 for a reason like always.  Saddle up…we’re going for a ride.

Edward and Bella get on the same plane, but it crashes in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Bella and Edward are the only survivors, and they luckily find a deserted island to stay on until someone finds them. But can they survive each other? All characters are human and OOC.

I wanted his hands on me, on every part of my body. I wanted to feel him pressed up against me, his skin touching mine. I wanted our passionate kisses to escalate until I was panting and trembling, on the precipice until I was begging for more. And yet, it still wouldn't be enough to squelch the desire I felt for him in that small space of time.
