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.
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.
I just wanted to be a normal girl, well as normal as you could be with a werewolf for a boyfriend and a family full of vampires. Normalicy may escape me, but i can still have fun. These are my Misadventures.
My favorite Review for the chapter "An American werewolf in....":
Thank you Panda!
Ok...so other than the fact that I think you have completely lost it, HAHA, it was an amazing chapter. I love that Jake and the pack are legendary in the werewolf world. Go Quiluetes! waiting for part deux...
Renesmee is finally "fully grown" and ready to start living. How do the people she loves most react when she is ready to be a woman?
Gravity Gravity!
So, I recently was reading through Gravity, and I realized how bad some of the begining (like the first thirty :]) chapters kinda...well, SUCK! so i'm going to be reposting the edited chapters of Gravity over on FF.net. same story, just better!
Nessie and Jake are married. The Volturi are getting restless from laying low for the last seven years after their embarrassment in the meadow. Dawn broke when Nessie was born and Bella was changed, what is in store for the new day?
Leah Clearwater is someone who has always been left behind. Her father is gone, her Sam has moved on and her body has betrayed her. Where is her happily ever after? When dawn broke the Twilight world changed, but not for Leah. Thanks to the Cullens she is stuck in limbo between barely a woman and sort of a wolf. Will she ever find a way to live in peace with the vampires she has come to blame for her unhappiness? Will an unexpected friendship save her when she finally finds love in the most desperate of circumstances? Can you ever truly be fixed once you've been broken?
Bella never thought things would get this way. It had never crossed her mind. The hurt and betrayal from all parties stung like constant bee stings, but something more important is at stake.
**Rated for violence and rape and takes place between New Moon and Eclipse.**

Title: Chapter 8: Charlie
"It broke my heart to think he'd doubted my intense love for him even for a second."
[chapter 4]
"This was so hard. I'd never denied her anything in her entire life. I'd watched her go through every phase in her short childhood. This was just one more step we had to take together- teenage rebellion."
Nessie asks if there were any other men in her mother's life. Obviously, Bella has quite a story to tell . Nessie confronts Jacob and... well, you'll see.
^^^ thanks you Little Miss Mionie for the LOVELY banner!! ^^^

I know what you're thinking, Jake and Nessie, canon, blah blah blah. But please give it a chance!!!
Laurent manages to bite Bella before the wolves can stop him. Now she is changed and alone and wants to find her way back to the Cullens. She immerses herself in the music industry hoping that someone will hear her message.
A few years have past since Breaking Dawn and Bella Swan Cullen is facing a whole new set of problems. Her daughter (and immortal) Renesmee is ready to get serious with her boyfriend (and werewolf) but Bella and Edward (both vampires) aren't ready for her to grow up. Join the Cullen crew for lots of love, lust, fights, and friendship!
Excerpt from Chapter 1:
"So, so far jacob has whined about how his four year old half vampire is tempting him but he can't touch her because he's afraid that Bella and Edward will bite him and their friendship will be ruined forever?"
This story takes place a few months after Breaking Dawn. Follow Bella, Edward and their family as they begin their "Happy Ending". Rated for lemons, language, and adult situations. Mixed POV's, however it'll mostly be from Bella and Edward's perspective.

Seventy-five years is a long time if you're human. For an immortal its a drop in the bucket!
It is seventy-five years after Renesmee was born, and the Cullen family is moving back to Forks. How do they react to being "home"? And what do they do when yet another once in a lifetime (or rather existence) event occurs? And how do the Volturi take to this development?
Amazing new banner by SoapyMayhem!!!! Thank you so much sweetie! You're fantastic!

Madison Davis comes highly recommended as the entertainment industry's best Personal Assistant. Throughout the past three years, she's worked tirelessly to establish herself as a force to be reckoned with. However, when an opportunity presents itself to branch out into the Motion Picture industry, she never dreamt it would challenge her knowledge and abilities as a Personal Assistant. Ever since the release of Twilight, Robert Pattinson has become demanding, egotistical, and compeltely self-centered. His ridiculous demands and outright rude attitude makes Madison want to strangle him. Can Rob get over this blast of fame and remember what it's like to just enjoy life? Can Madison open Rob's eyes to what life is like outside of the Twilight craze?

oh, this is so good!
Author's Response:
Hey there!!
Awww...well thhank you sooo much! That just put a huge smile on my face! I'm so glad you're loving the story! The next chapter is almost done and it should be up in the next couple days. I can't wait to hear what you think of it! Again, thank you so much for the review, it means the world to me! :)
Exactly a year ago, Jasmine left her disastrous past in Australia and moved to LA. She makes a modest living playing music on the street and working in a record store, reveling in the anonymity of her now relaxed life with her new friends and comfortably messy home.
Robert Pattinson is, give or take, the most wanted man in the world, an overnight prodigy. When chance has it that he quite literally crashes his way into Jasmine’s life, he accidentally can’t leave her alone. A few more change meetings take them on a journey of discovery where they experience the effects of sleep deprivation, Steve Buscemi’s face etched into a wall, some amazing live music and a great deal of food based nostalgia. Oh and they may or may not have a crush on each other, or something.
How important is it to stay true to yourself, when the bright lights of Hollywood threaten to burn right through you?
NC-17 for language and lemons.

Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9: You Rock My Boat
A story of how Kristen and Rob's relationship progresses while filming Twilight.
Rob is a big fan of Kristen’s works; his main reason for auditioning was so he could be in a movie with her. Kristen is amazed by Rob’s humbleness and dedication to his work; she sees something in him that captivates her. What started out as just another movie turns into something much more as Kristen and Rob’s undeniable chemistry propels them from ‘co-stars’ to ‘friends’ and possibly…. ‘lovers’?
Things are not always so simple in Hollywood and the two stars have to face some harsh reality. Is Kristen willing to leave her first love and longtime boyfriend, Michael? Does Rob want that? How can they make a long distance relationship work with Rob living in London and Kristen in L.A?

Title: Chapter 7: Hero/Herione
When Catherine Hardwicke hires a young, unknown actor to play the lead in her new vampire movie "Twilight," Kristen Stewart is convinced from the start that something is not quite right about him. The team laughs off her bizarre theories - but what if she is right? What if the actor playing Edward Cullen is just pretending to be Robert Pattinson? What if the true identity of this man is not that of a young aspiring actor from London, but something completely different - an ancient Transylvanian vampire on the prowl for revenge and blood?
The madness of being an actor is certainly getting to Robert Pattinson. He loves his job, but feels empty and alone. After meeting a mysterious girl at his friend Sam’s show one night in Vancouver, he starts to wonder if he could ever have a normal relationship. As fate would have it, Rob meets her again at a poetry reading later that night and gets a taste of the one who hopefully will not get away.
