Rosalie is content to live her vampire life to its fullest, regardless of her resentment of her immortal situation. One day while hunting she comes across a dying man with an innocent face that she cannot resist. In an act of strength, she brings him home to change him into one of them.

How does the vain and selfish Rosalie deal with an irrational newborn vampire who can’t see past his lust for blood to even notice her? Will she be able to swallow her pride and have the patience to stand by him? Will Emmett be the man who can change her life for the better?

Bella’s blood was just too tempting to be ignored.  In this version of Twilight, Edward takes Bella on a sadistic journey with his monstrous side.  While Edward drags her around the world, barely keeping a step ahead of his frantic family, Bella battles the monster for possession of the gentler vampire inside her captor.  EPOV.

“There was no other blood like this.  Once she was gone, it would no longer be within my grasp.  But if I stopped now, she would heal.  Her body would make more.  The blood would replenish.  I could drink again.  The promise of more – it was the only incentive that could have caused me to stop.”

A camping expedition goes awry when Bella's friends disappear after a hike. While searching for them, she stumbles upon the manor of Edward Cullen, unaware that she is about to become a pawn in his dangerous game - a game she can't afford to lose.

NO BABY, just newborn Bella dealing with the highs and lows of being a vampire and the youngest member of the Cullen family, with the help of her new parents and siblings. Unlike in Breaking Dawn, Bella won’t have an easy time of it. She will struggle with various aspects of being a newborn and is also dealing with being in a committed relationship for the first time, with all the give, take, and compromise that relationships require.

Stephenie Meyer hinted at the difficulties that newborns face in the books, but never took Bella down that road.  I will.

Sequel to Captive, but I am told it is not necessary to read that story in order to follow this one. Each chapter stands alone (no cliffies!) but builds on the previous chapter to form a cohesive story (at least that is the plan), detailing Bella’s evolution from volatile newborn to stable vampire.

Edward’s vigilante days have come a little later in his existence. He lives in solitude, the rest of his family dwelling in Alaska and hunts the truly evil across the US.

Bella knows nothing of the vampire world, and although she was never involved in an icy car accident, she is still a magnet for trouble.

If he had met her alone in a dark alley, say, after saving her from creepy guys in Port Angeles, would it have been different?

Edward seeks out the counsel of his father and brothers after agreeing to be with Bella after their wedding. What will Edward do with that advise and how will he and Bella prepare for their upcoming wedding night.

Edward and Bella are web geeks, friends, and colleagues. He kicks ass at code, she kicks ass at Nerf wars.

A serious case of social retardation prevents Edward from going after the woman of his dreams. Can Edward overcome his inability to communicate in order to help Bella, whose dark past threatens her future happiness?

Humor, healing, romance, and rampant geekitude collide in this Edward & Bella love story.
