Proud of Edward for deciding to stay.
Loved all the "accidents". I'm wondering about Bella's step cousin Laurent. Wouldn't Tanyq prefer him? Although this Laurent seems too nuce to saddle with her

Great chapter. I'd like to see an outtake on James' offer to Tanya. Why didn't she take him up on it? Did he not offer enough money? I can't imagine why else she would have declined.

Summary: Click here to watch the video trailer created by lilabut.
At a pivotal moment in New Moon, a simple choice alters the course of Bella's future, and she is forced to endure several more weeks before Edward's eventual return to Forks. Victoria, a pack of young werewolves, and the blossoming of an undeniable bond become the least of Bella's concerns as she undergoes her own supernatural transformation. It turns out vampires and werewolves aren’t the only things that go bump in the night. Edward/Bella/Jacob

Title: Chapter 12: Into the Woods
Forks hospital has a Dr. Tines? Was that intentional? Good story. Can't wait to see how it plays out when Edward returns Author's Response: I figure that a hospital has multiple doctors, so I felt okay with introducing a new one. Hope that sounds realistic.
Thank you for the lovely compliment!

Title: Chapter 13: Human
Very interesting. From B's thoughts about where she was found post attack, I would guess that E or another of the family hs lready been here, just behind the scenes Author's Response: Theories! I LOVE theories!
Hmm...but wouldn't the wolves have picked up thier scent???? We'll just have to wait and see.... ;)
Summary: 
Bella went cliff diving, but it didn't turn out so well. She broke her back. A decade later, Edward reappears in her life on the same night she loses her best friend and husband to a freak accident. Now a graduate student in Women's Studies, Bella isn't thrilled to see him. But when the Cullens re-enter Bella's life, they bring change, hope, and a new joint project that will require all their expertises.

Special Update:
For personal reasons (a ridiculously full teaching schedule and being recently put in charge of a bi-annual local conference and ongoing project), I am no longer able to reply to reviews and questions. But that said, I wanted to give a BIG THANK YOU to EVERYBODY for the wonderful feedback and kind words that have been sent my way since the completion of this story in August 2009. I do still check my messages about once every 1-2 weeks and read *every* review. I just have too many to reply to anymore, but I didn’t want anyone to think I was ignoring her/him in particular, or didn’t appreciate readers taking time to leave a review. Writing this story was tons of fun and I’m thrilled readers seem to enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed the chance to write it. I can’t tell you how flattering that is!!! As I used to reply to all reviews, I feel a little badly about this decision, but work has been requiring virtually all of my time since the new (academic) year began.
Best to all of you in 2010 and beyond!

I loved this chapter. I want to see Martha's conversation with Edward & with Charlie. I also want to know what's up with Bella.
Everyone is jumping to the conclusion that Brady is behind this. He is the obvious suspect. Prior to Bella's kidnapping she was thinking of the bad blood between Clayton & Edward. It would really be stretching it for Clayton to be the kidnapper, but I wonder. Maybe there is an obscure connection between him & Brady? Author's Response: I won't say too much, but I WILL say that nobody has been introduced in this story (in more than passing) who doesn't play some role in the end.

This has been a great story. I'm sad that it is almost over. I love the growth in all the Cullens, particularly in Edward & Bella.

Summary: New Summary!
"What if I'm not a superhero? What if I'm the bad guy?" He smiled playfully, but his eyes were impenetrable.
Bella comes uninvited to a strangely twisted Forks shrouded in a mystery that seems to revolve around Edward Cullen. What if Edward was the bad guy?

This is an interesting spin on the story. I'm not used to seeing the Cullens as the bad guys. I'm eager to see where you go with it.
