Bella shares a dark secret with her best friends Emmett and Jasper. She left home to escape the whispers and scrutiny, but upon returning, she meets professional fighter Edward Cullen, who has secrets of his own. Bella has worked hard to erect walls to protect herself, but Edward can't get Bella out of his mind. He wants her. She can't let anyone get too close.

This story will contain lemons and is only intended for a mature audience. 

Bella takes a vacation to Hilton Head Island in South Carolina to meet Alice's new boyfriend, Jasper. Rosalie and Emmett come along, too, just in case Bella didn't feel like enough of a fifth wheel. With Jasper's roommate out of town, Bella has his nice big bed all to herself. Until Edward comes home in the middle of the night...

"I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I make tonight."  With that one hope Isabella Swan faces life as best as she can.  The tragedy of her parents' death, leaves her alone in a system where her age leaves her undesirable for adoption.  That is until one day two people come into her life offering her a chance at hope.  The Cullen family takes to Bella like a long lost sister.  What happens when Bella is taken from the Cullens by a lost relative?  Will Bella's hopes be destroyed?  What happens when fate steps in years later to reunite Bella with the one's she loved and who loved her so long ago?

Bella knew what she would say, "Don't you want to be my sister?"

Edward is a 27-year-old alcoholic/addict struggling with his recovery. Bella is a 23-year-old who's moved back home after college. This fic chronicles how they meet, fall in love, and struggle with the complexities of their relationship. Not nearly as maudlin as it sounds (I hope).

Rated NC-17 for graphic (and sometimes non-romantic) sex, drug and alcohol use and abuse, profane language, and brief (very brief) suicidal ideation (although NO suicide attempts). No sexual assault, no cutting.

Bella has grown from an orphaned sixteen year old raised by her older brother Emmett and his friends affectionately known as ‘her boys’, to an up and coming first year medical intern. When a day in the ER turns dangerous can her boys, now members of the best SWAT team in Chicago save her? Eventual Canon pairings. Rated 'NC-17' for strong language, lemons.

He's a young but jaded keyboard player writing lyrics for his band, Breaking Dawn, and she's a naive and frustrated poet looking to break out of her shell; their words collide on-line.
What happens when they meet in high school, unaware of their literary connection?

OOC, canon at heart.
