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.

This story begins by re-imagining a favorite scene from Eclipse, in which Edward and Bella are stuck in a blizzard and must call on Jacob to keep Bella warm.  The original scene hints at Bella's curiosity, Edward's awareness, and Jacob's lust, and the possibilities that lie within that love triangle.  This version asks, what if Bella took what she wanted? What if Edward's long-dormant humanity were finally sparked? And what if Jacob's fantasy finally came true?

"Anything I had ever felt, allowed myself to feel, had been only a hint, a taste, a glimmer of that all-consuming heat.  That heat that Bella had plunged me headlong into, mercilessly immersing me in Jacob’s subconscious, ruthlessly repaying me for her months of frustration.  Teaching me desire in one cold, confusing night."

happy to see my local Blockbuster advertising my fic for me:

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.

Alice and Bella want what any couple wants, a baby. Bella asks her best friend Edward to contribute to the cause. He agrees but on one condition.  B/A and B/E pairing.  NC-17 for lemons and content.

Thank you christine30974 for this new banner!

A fun, smutty story that starts off with a bang and has twists and turns popping up later. AU Human, not entirely cannon pairings throughout, but all cannon by the end. 

Bella, Rosalie, Emmett, and Jasper have known each other since they were kids. Problematic friendship and hatred wreak havoc on Bella and Jasper. But what happens when one bet changes everything? And how do a guy named Edward and a girl named Alice change the little clan?

On one rainy afternoon in April Bella Swan, Forks school’s resident loner found an envelope the color of the Phoenix sky wedged in her locker. Who is behind the pen? Bella doesn’t know. Is it possible to find yourself again through picking up the dry-cleaning of a stranger? How about through a job application or a train ticket? Why is someone sending her on these adventures? These adventures that lead her to a mysterious boy and his friends.  These adventues that are pushing her to confront her past.  Will Bella, with the help of the letters’ sender, conquer what lies behind her, or will the fear of what lies ahead defeat her?
