Edward is a single father and CEO of Cullen Corporation.  He's emotionally closed off and doesn't want a romantic relationship.  A couple of chance meetings with Bella, a part time entertainment journalist and one of Cullen Corporation's new employees, and that could all change.  Everyone has a past, but can love be enough to build a future?  Bella is willing to try, but Edward's self imposed rules on no dating make it difficult.

Bella didn't like surprises. Her life was safe, predictable and she knew what to expect.... until fate brought her breast cancer and everything changed. This is not a tragedy; it's a story about love and hope because that's what life is all about.

Edward Masen has lived the life of a nomadic vampire, travelling with James and Victoria since he awoke as an immortal. His ability to read minds has had the unusual side effect of making him a vampire with a conscience. Despite the ridicule from his coven mates, he's confident he's making the best of his existence and doing what's morally right... until he stumbles upon a brown-eyed girl reading in a meadow in Forks. As he attempts to befriend her and learns more about the sleepy town of Forks, Edward finds there's a lot more to being a vampire than he ever thought possible.

Bella is a witness in peril. Emmett Cullen is the deputy assigned to protect her. When the witness protection program proves unsafe, Emmett has Bella pose as his brother Edward's fiancée. ExB. AU/AH.

Bella Swan & Edward Cullen have been friends for years when they in London. They both had feelings for each other but they have never have acted on them. Tragedy strikes and Bella moves back to the states where her life isn't at all like she makes it seem.What will happen when they come back together & brush the fine line of friendship.

What if the first time Bella dreamed of Edward she wasn't really dreaming. Would their growing relationship be tainted by what had already occured?

Based on the 'that was the first night I dreamed of Edward Cullen' deleted scene from the Twilight DVD.

Edward Masen is a single father, ex-con, and an ex drug user. He and his child move to Forks for a fresh start. Bella Swan is a straight edge, young woman. When these two people meet, the attraction is inexplicable. AH/M.

Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight. Stephenie Meyer and Summit own the right. I just play around with the characters.

"Bella Swan had become beautiful to me. The pain of that realization stung worse than venom ever could." NOMINATED FOR AN ETERNITY AWARD: Edward's Twilight, but not Midnight Sun. AU detours/missing moments. The slow burn begins with the flight to Alaska.    

Bella Swan was a successful journalist and a bitch.  She craved to meet someone who would ignite passion in her dull, monotonous life.  When asked to interview a popular romance novelist, Bella's fate is forever altered. Enter stage left... Edward Cullen.  A man who comes into Bella's life...and is mysterious, aloof and...bad.  A man who has endured a traumatic past and is trying to regain what circumstance had taken from him.  A man who will do anything to be with his one true love.  Rated for language, bitchy banter and lemons. Bella/Edward/Alice points of view.
