Summary: 
Bella Swan had big dreams. You know what they say, the bigger they are the harder they fall. When her life takes a sad turn she is forced to do whatever she can just to keep her head above water.

Title: Chapter 52: I Need You
I wanted to drop you a quick note, I LOVE THIS STORY!!! I sat down and read it in about 3 sessions after work, between kids and husband.....fabulous! LOVE LOVE LOVE this Bella (normally I hate her on priciple) and I don't even know what to say about Victoria being a cleaning lady (not that there is anything wrong with that!) I adore that you throw in nods of so many fabulous movies i.e. Pretty Woman, Maid in Manhattan, etc. I think you are truely talented and can't wait for your next update!!! Author's Response: Wow! What a kind review. I'm really glad you're enjoying the story!
Summary:  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.

I usually hold my reviews for the end of a story, but I wanted to let you know I absolutely love the way you write.....
You are one of the few I have read recently, and I read ALOT, between here and FanFic that captured me from the first sentence.
You have a gift and I appreciate that you choose to share with us!
Summary:  Edward Cullen was a loner, an outcast. He clearly hated everybody, including himself. He was not a nice person. So, why was I so drawn to him? And why did I get the crazy feeling he felt the same way?
WARNING: This story will deal with the aftermath of child abuse and rape. If that bothers you too much, I strongly recommend that you don’t read.

Summary: 
Tina DeLuca prides herself on always being in control. She’s irreverent, intelligent, and quick to say what she thinks. In her professional life, she specializes in making people better at their jobs. In her personal life, she’s always got a way to do something better, faster, more efficiently. She has everything she’s supposed to have: a husband who supports her career, a child who loves her unconditionally, and a ride on the fast-track at her company. Until one day, it all falls apart. While sorting it all out, she meets someone who challenges her need to always be in control, and who himself has virtually no control over most of his life. Her friendship with Rob Pattinson grows into something deeper in spite of all her best efforts to stop it. Will he be able to show her that the only way she can really be happy is to finally let it all go?

*sniff* *sniff* I am sooooo going to miss these two!! Thank you for letting me peek into their lives, and spend some time with them! Well Done! Author's Response: Thanks, Jeanette! I miss them, too. It's hard to believe how much they became a part of me... I guess that's what happens when you spend ten months or so creating something. As much as I wrote this because the story - the idea - of Tina haunted me, I also really loved hearing from the folks who took the time to read it, and to let me know what they thought. I know it wasn't the shortest thing out there (ha ha!) so I certainly understand the investment you made. I really appreciate it, and I appreciate that you let me know you liked it.
Keep your eyes peeled... as soon as these kids of mine get back to school and work calms down, there's an outtake in the future. I think there's a lot of fun to be had if Frannie convinces Rob and Tina to take her camping. She's working on talking them into it right now. The joys of Girl Scouting. heh heh!
Summary: On her way to London, a broken Sarah Anderson meets the one person who can save her from her darkened existence. Their age difference is the least of their worries. What will they teach each other and do you really have a second chance at forever?

I honestly can't remember if I have reviewed before on this story or not, but I wanted to tell you, it has been a wonderful journey to be on with you and I also read your other stories, as well. I am so happy you didn't stop writing this and remember, as important as our reviews may be to you, your needs and desires to share your TALENT (becuase that is what it is) is so much more important than one person's opinion. You have a gift and I hope you don't let anyone cause you to question that.
I look forward to the next chapter on your other stories...thanks so much. Author's Response: Hi there!
Thank you so much for reading and reviewing and for your kind words.
So glad that you enjoyed this journey.

I have to tell you I love that you include photos of the things you reference in your chapters, it is awesome to get the visual and it adds so much depth to your story. I even Googled Bulan to see it, perfect description! Thank you! Can't wait for the next chapter. Author's Response: Hey britojhb,
Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!
I'm glad you like the photos. They're just for fun, really. I'm a very visual person and need a clear image of who I'm writing about, so I thought I'd put them in the story so others can see too! How funny that you googled Bulan! Love it! I changed the location and some other bits and pieces to suit the story, but it's still pretty close. :)
Next chapter is on the way very soon! Hope to see you back again then!

Summary: 
Bella Swan had led a very ordinary life. She'd married her college boyfriend only to be betrayed when he left her for another girl. After the death of her father, she pulled out a map and threw a dart. The implications of that one simple act would send her life in a direction that would surprise her beyond belief. She found a home...she found a job...could she find love again after surviving a cheating husband? Only time will tell...What secrets will the beautiful stranger she meets have and how will she deal with them?
AU/AH...Canon Couples...with a twist. NC-17 for smut, dirty language, a smattering of BDSM, and the usual lemons.
Stephanie Meyer owns all things Twilight. I like to put them into awkward positions and see what happens. Take the ride?

Title: Chapter 38: Chapter 37
OMG!! 100% Pure extract please!! Hottest chapter ever!!
Summary: When Bella and Edward hook up at a party their lives quickly become complicated, causing a rift in their close knit circle of friends. Despite the fallout, they can’t stay away from each other. Neither of them are able to admit the depths of their feelings for the other and when Edward has to leave for Italy and Bella realizes she’s attracted to her friend Claire, their already shaky relationship is in danger of falling apart.

This is ultimately a Bella/Edward story but there are non-canon pairs initially and later in the story there is a Bella/Claire slash pairing for a portion of the story. If this is something you aren't comfortable with, please disregard this story. Rated for language/underage drinking/lemons.

Summary: 
***BANNER BY CHILDOFSUMMER - THANK YOU!!***

***BANNER BY BABISTARR - THANK YOU!!!***
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.

I have read all your stories, and love the way you tell them!! I chuckled out loud when I read what her "books" were about, very clever!!! Can't wait to finish this one......
Summary: Bella and Mike wed four years ago and their marriage hasn't exactly been the picture of bliss. A carefully guarded secret surfaces, destroying an already fragile Bella. Everything she knew was a lie, everything she wanted for her life, wiped out with the click of a mouse. An E x B story.
Warning: There is mention of past sexual assault, crappy childhoods, an even crappier marriage, and some very prevalent social issues (that I’m not going to mention here, because it would defeat the purpose of reading the story).

Banner thanks to Forthelongestday
Excerpt: I looked at the clock again, 5:44. Jesus Christ, did time stand still? Those fourteen minutes felt like fourteen hours. As the moments ticked by, my palms began to sweat and a nervous pressure mounted in my chest. It's not the end of the world Bella; just the end of your marriage...and everything you knew. God, how was I going to do this? People up and left their spouses on a daily basis and never looked back. Of course, how many of them were under these same circumstances, I wondered. How many women were faced with leaving the man they loved because he'd woven a lie so hurtful? When it finally surfaced, did it kill them?

But I have to say, even though he is hurt, that parting was handled with pure class and grace by Emmett. But will he be able to move past it if she chooses her family? Really move past it?
I guess we shall see.........I can't wait.
