Guardian by ChampagneAnyone

If by chance you're one of the few who arent already reading this then you really should. Bella is orphaned at the age of 8 and is placed in care of her godparents Esme and Carlisle. She is the heir to Cullen-Swan Enterprises and grows up with Edward and Alice. Now the reason behind the deaths of Bella's parents is still an unsolved mystery. All we know is that they were murdered and Bella's mum made her hide out in which she was found later that even by Edward and Esme. The people who killed Bella's parents were looking for something, what that is, is still unclear. But just because Bella is now older doesn't mean that everything reguarding that fateful night has disappeared.

Bella has grown up hero worshipping Edward. What turns from a childhood best friend turns into teenage lust and adoration. Bella really loves Edward but feels that its unrequited. But things start to change for Edward too. He starts to see how much of a beautiful woman Bella has turned into and he realises how much he actually loves her. Edward then sets a path of claiming Bella as his and won't settle for anything else.

But behind this very passionate love affair, we have Carlisle, who seems to not be who we think he is. In fact, in my opinion he's very shady. He's plotting at something big, we just don't know what that is yet. Of course, this is all theory on my part. Like the rest of you I don't know for sure what is going on, I'm reading as the chapters get posted.

This little ditty of a story has sucked me completely in and I can't wait for more.

Take the Ice by bellamarie117

Looking for a story that has Figure-Skaterella and Hockeyward all wrapped up in one? Then this is the story for you!

We have Bella who is an ice princess, champion throughout the world of figure skating. But an accident which causes her a serious knee injury takes her away from competing and while she's in recovery she moves back to Minnesota. But she doesn't move back there just for her recovery but also to get away from the clutches of her over bearing mother and find independence.

Her mother Renee has control of every aspect of Bella's life and treats her knee injury as though it nothing serious and keeps trying to force her back onto the ice before she's ready. Trust me even though Bella is thousands of miles away she still tries to control her. Bella realises through spending time with Edward, Alice, Rosalie, Jasper and Emmett that she needs to take control of her own life, which she starts off doing without Renee knowing.

Edward, Emmett and Jasper are all on the same Hockey team. Edward wants to help Bella in any way he can. They start off as becoming friends and they form a tight bond. With Bella getting the all clear from her Doctor to start back on the Ice, Edward is there every step of the way encouraging her when she has doubts. Off course the two end up getting together but its not sudden and it takes a while for Bella to let down her walls and let Edward get close to her in that way.

This is a beautifully written story that focuses on Friendship and finding love when you least expect it. Its about Bella learning that there is life outside of her skating and she CAN have the best of both worlds. Its a journey also of finding herself and learning to stand on her own two feet Its still early on in the story and I cannot wait to see what happens next!

Faithfully by LailaB

I found this little ditty over the weekend and fell in love with it. Its pretty fast in the terms of Edward and Bella getting together but sometimes that's what we love, right? Well, I do anyway.

Edward is a rock and roll star and lead singer of Eclipse. He feels like his life is were he wants it to be and feels pretty fulfilled. That is until he crosses path Bella in a music store in London. Edward lives there and is just about to embark on a world tour with band. Before he gets a chance to talk to Bella she walks out of the store which causes Edward to follow her. They end up in a coffee shop where they end up talking for hours and before Edward leaves he asks her to come to his show the next night.

When she shows up and later after the show in his dressing room Edward warns Bella giving her a chance to back out of being seen with him. Why you ask? Well Edward is 35yrs old and has never been seen or been pictured since he became famous with another woman. So by Bella being by his side it will be like tying a rope around their necks as far as the paparazzi are concerned. Bella is also only 20yrs old so they have that hanging over their heads, even though the age difference means nothing to them.

Edward asks Bella to come on the tour with them and she readily agrees as she was travelling Europe with her brother Seth and his girlfriend. She meets the rest of the band consisting of Jasper the lead guitarist and Emmett the drummer. Also going on the tour is Jaspers girlfriend Alice and Emmett's wife Rosalie.

Bella and Alice hit it off right away but Rosalie hates Bella from the get go. Rosalie has lusted after Edward for 10yrs and as much as she tried to nail him he never went anywhere near her. So she settled for Emmett and married him instead. This doesn't mean that she still doesn't want Edward and she's constantly pushing Bella's buttons with snide remarks. Bella doesn't back down though. She's strong and can hold her own and is constantly putting Rosalie in her place. Why Rosalie still wants Edwards is a mystery, if its for the simple fact that she wants what she cant have or that she does harbour more feelings than she lets on for him, well its too early to say, its only 8 chapters in. But what gets me most of all about the Rosalie situation is the fact that Emmett is either completely blind to the situation or he's choosing to ignore it. Either way I want to shake the hell out of him and tell him dump her skanky ass!

This story is fast becoming high on my list of favourites and I highly recommend you give it a go. Lots of lemony goodness to, by the time I was caught up on all eight chapters I was in need of a cold shower!

The Handcuff Bracelet by SoulReaper616

If you like a story with a confident Bella then this is the story for you!

Bella moves to forks to live with her dad and to basically get away from her step father Phil. He's not pleasant at all and while he isn't physically abuse he is mentally and gives Bella a really hard time.

Bella is confident, dresses racy and can hold her own in a fight if needs be. She can stand up for herself and wont let anyone walk over her. She carries a knife for protection and loves to spend time with her 'friend' MaryJane (if like me you don't understand what that means, you will after the first couple of chapters).

Alice befriends her on her first day of school and like to keep the peace by trying to be friends with everyone. Bella instantly likes her and is soon introduced to Edward, Alice's not so social adoptive brother.

An instant attractive assumes and they start of playing little games with each other. But after an accident in the school hallway in which Bella saves Alice from being crushed and only manages to get herself injured (Not seriously) Edward escorts Bella to hospital and a bond starts to form.

Edward doesn't 'date' and Bella isn't looking for anything serious but after a couple of chapters of mixed signals and an angry Bella they come to an understanding. You'll just have to read it to find out what that is.

Underneath all of this though, IMO, is two lost souls finding one another and working through their problems. Learning about each other and dealing with not so nice pasts. We've been given little hints as to some of the things that Bella has been through as well as Edward. But I don't think the story is anywhere near revealing what these two crazy kids have been through. I also feel that this is a story of two people who don't trust anyone and they have to learn to trust one another. From revealing to each other their many secrets and the meanings behind their Tattoo's.

Every chapter will leave you wanting more, so I implore you to go read this little ditty and leave some kind reviews for the author!

Silver Strand Nights by GreenEyedGirl17

I fell in love love with this story right from chapter one. The only reason I didn't rec it right away is because I wanted it to be a few more chapters in so that I got a better feel for it and give it the justice it deserves. As its now nine chapters in I feel now is the time to do it. Don't get me wrong the story is just starting to build and its a slow burn which I love.

We have Edward, a former NavySeal who's moving back to California to work with Emmett in training new NavySeals. We don't know yet what happened to Edward other than he was injured in the line of duty. Little things are coming out through each chapter of his past but if you think I'm goin to reveal anything here then of course you would be wrong. I've never revealed anything plot wise in my previous rec's and I'm not about to start now.

Emmett puts Edward in touch with his younger sister Bella who works in the Base and she helps him find a house for when ever he moves back. Edward emails her asking for her help which leads to coversing over IM and then talking on the phone. All sounds easy right? That would be another wrong.

Bella is incredibly shy around people but more so men. She's never had a boyfriend and basically has a one time horrible experience as far as sex is concerned. She has zero confidence and lives within her own shell. When she tells Edward she has a facebook he finds her page, and he likes what he see's. He asks her out to dinner when he moves to Cali and she agrees. Of course she also likes what she see's but doesn't think that a guy as hot as Edward would ever be interested in someone like her.

The bond that these to form is really a beautiful thing to read. Edward really cares for Bella as she does for him. She's helping him deal with his problems and he's slowly bringing her out of her shell.

The only thing is Edwards mother is a meddling mother and is trying to set him up with Vicky who is also Friends with Emmett and his wife Rose. Vicky is easily told no though and when around Edward she flirts constantly. I can see her being a problem in the future. I could be wrong but I just have a feeling. Also add to the fact that Edward and Bella are keeping their relationship a secret from Emmett and we have a few things building in the background.

The author updates every Wednesday and I find myself refreshing my email every hour, yes I truly am addicted and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Shattered & Shrouded by Red20881

I stumbled across this little ditty at the weekend when looking through others favourite stories. I'm so glad I started it and it goes to prove that you should never judge a story because of the review count.

So what's it about you ask?

Well we have Bella who has no memory of her life before the age of 17. Now years later after she's graduated from college she gets her first job as Edward Masen's PI.

Edward himself is moody and rude and trust me when I say for the first couple of chapters you will get serious whiplash from his drastic mood swings. But something gets revealed through later chapters that all is not what it seems with Edward.

Bella starts to have dreams and she can't determine if its actually her past she dreaming about. Edward seems determined to help her find out who she once was even though Bella doesn't want to remember in fear that something terrible happened to her in the past.

Its 13chapters in and more and more secrets are being revealed. I can't wait for more to see what else is going to spring up and bite these two on ass. It honestly had me hooked from chapter 1. So I implore you to go read it. More importantly please review it and tell the author how much you love it.

How To Save A Life by unholy.obsession

Yes I know I've recc'd this before but Im doing it again because well simply I can. I have close to 200 stories on my favourites list....This is by without a doubt my number 1 all time favourite. Why might you ask?

Well we have former golden boy Edward who is now broken and a shell of his former self. Bella moves to forks to finish high school where she instantly befriends Alice. Alice's brother Edward doesn't really talk to anyone, ditches school a lot and gave up on everything about his life. He smokes weed to numb the pain he's feeling and basically just wants to be left alone.

After Bella see's pictures and hears a lot about Edward who was once happy, she kinda takes on a rescue mission without even realising it. She slowly but surely breaks down some of his carefully constructed walls, speaks with him sporatically and offers him a chance to talk about things if he ever needs too.

Of course he tells her no and seems to fight off her offers until one day when Bella gets out of biology for feeling sick after blood typing. She stumbles upon Edward in the middle of an emotional breakdown and he finally asks to talk to her. He talks about some of his problems but not the main thing that has him feeling or acting the way he does. Its a small break through that doesn't really change much but its yet another crack in his wall.

Things more or less develop from this point on, he tries to get his life together and Bella seems to become more constant in his life. Of course we have set backs, and trust me with every set back you want to hug the hell out of Edward as long as wanting to scream with frustration on Bella's behalf.

Its an emotional rollarcoaster that I would happily ride repeatedly. You feel Edwards pain and you feel Bella's 'want' with wanting to help him. You feel her frustration, her need, her anguish and also I found I felt her exhaustion. Yes, it does get to the point as its now on chapter 25 and Bella is utterly exhausted. I feel that right along with her but its so worth it. Nobody can be complimented on making me feel these thing EXCEPT the author. I can only commend her writing and the effort and feeling she puts into it for making this an exceptional story.

There's a lot of twist and turns and it's just hit a major turn in the storyline, at the end of chapter 25 I was literally speechless and thinking 'OH MY GOD' and I don't even want to talk about it because it would give too much away. You'll just have to read it to find out what happens!

Please make sure you review, its important for an author to hear you feedback and it also means a lot to them for the hard work and effort they put into writing for us to read for free :D

My Reason for lack of Fic Recs

Recently there has been a lot of things happening within the ranks of FanFiction.net Stories are being reported and pulled for violation of Terms of Service.

Yes we get that that they did break the rules but this is due to FanFiction.net not having an MA/NC-17 rating.

Then we have the asses who have made themselves known as Literate Union. They read a story, leave a ridiculous review completely flaming the author with their over rated opinion and then top matters off by reporting said stories to FFn.

Do these people not have jobs? Do they not have lives? What I would like to know is who made them the 'Powers that Be' of FFn and what gives them right to flame and destroy a persons freedom of creativity?

At the time of writing this all seems to be quiet from LU, maybe its the calm before the storm. But either way Im going to start reccing again. Not all recs will be for FFn but for a new site also that is new and up and coming called The Writers Coffee Shop Library.

New Rec's will be up on Monday March 8th 2010.

Thank you to whom ever visits this blog and for sticking with me, reading stories that I've rec'd so far. It means a lot to the authors when you read and review their stories.

Problems with FanFiction.net!

Ok, so as a lot of people have heard already FanFiction.net have been getting a lot of our favourites stories reported and therefore have either removed them completely or pulled certain chapters.

The rumour mill is that a certain hater group is directing underage readers to M rated stories and then reporting the stories because the readers are underage.....Make sense??

This angers me so much that I fell like my head is explode into tiny pieces. If a story has an M rating meaning for mature reading that over 18 years of age. Then why the hell are the under aged minortiy that click on the damn story not being banned instead of getting a story pulled especially a bloody good story that we all love.

Another thing these haters are doing are reporting the author for "Breaking the Rules".

Can I just say that this group is calling the kettle black as my dear friend Tweter found out from visiting their forums. Below is a letter she sent to FanFiction.net to highlight these issues.

To the Admin of FFn:

I writing you not only as someone who has posted stories on your site, but as a reader and a parent and an educator.

It seems that as of late, several FF are being pulled due to a vigilante group called "Literate Union." This group has a forum on YOUR site where they CLAIM to be writer friendly, with the goal of helping FF writer's improve their stories. http://forum.fanfiction.net/forum/Literate_Union/61196/ Their guidelines for the site are:

1. Forums are not to be used to post stories.
2. All discussions, language and content, must be suitable for teens.
3. The owner/moderator(s) of this forum is solely responsible for content posted within this area.
4. All forum abuse must be reported to the moderator(s).

While checking into this forum after several complaints by authors, I found the following statements:

1. I'm in a bad mood today; if they contine to splatter their crap all over this forum, there will be some virtual blood splash here tonight. -_-

2. Semi-illiterate douches that blindly defend their leader in doing the wrong thing.

3. And besides, she's a mod. Bow down to the mods, bitch. -_- It says so in the rules that you are actually meant to read. Go to the correct thread or you'll be banned. And you don't want that now, do you?

4. Because I know Anti-Flamers love that shit.

5. Topic: Shit that Happens Here, FR SRS

6. "Your story broke the fucking rules. STFU~"

7. Still better than a dyslexic American trying to correct my mistakes. They cretiniZe.

8. That person is an imbecile. They should stay away from the internet, and social life. Petting cardboard bunnies in a room with soft walls should be the best occupation for them.

9. A list of shit fics in need of killing. Bold = deleted.

10. Seriously. -.-; This kid needs a harsh wake-up call.

11. To my dear fucktard,

If they weren't against the rules, we wouldn't report them. I am done explaining to absolute morons like you who love to see your favourite characters banging. Grow up and get a life. Get a job. Go away. You're not wanted here.

ALL OF THESE COMMENTS WERE MADE BY MODERATORS OF THAT FORUM AND ARE IN CLEAR VIOLATION OF NOT ONLY THEIR OWN RULES (LANGUAGE SUITABLE FOR TEENS) but FFn rules as well. They are harassing and degrading writers, most of them young writers. These people are ADULTS. It's one thing to go after our M stories for "illegal content" as they like to put it aka: "smut" or whatever, but it's another to make a kid who is expressing their creativity feel like a failure and an idiot.

I realize it is the goal of the site to keep it user friendly for ages 14 and up . . . but how is this user friendly? As a parent, I'm more concerned with my child's emotional well-being getting trampled on by this group of people than them reading something deemed "inappropriate." Besides, it is MY job as a parent to know what my children are looking at on-line and reading. Kids are quite capable of getting their hands on any form of smut in this day and age via internet, book, and/or TV. It shouldn't be FFn responsibility to see that I'm parenting my children correctly. It IS however, FFn's job to ensure my child as well as other's are not being attacked and belittled by groups like Literate Union.

Furthermore, it is crap that this group "sends" teen readers to various authors/stories to read and then has them turn said authors in. This is malicious and hateful. If you, FFn, feel as though there is a problem with Mature rated stories on your site, perhaps you should address the issue yourselves instead of allowing this vigilante group to do what they are currently doing.

FanFiction.net . . . YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. By allowing this Literate Union forum to exist as it does, you will not only lose Teen readers/writers but your Mature readers/writers as well. The fandom is a tight-knit group of people, we are not going to allow people like Literate Union have this kind of control and power over the things we read and write. I would hope you would put a stop to this ABUSE, as that is clearly what it is . . .

~t.c.~

Extemely well said!! I couldnt agree with you more!

Locked Up by twiXlite

This is a story that is only 8 chapters in and has completely captured me and sucked me in. We have Edward who is in prison for a crime he didn't commit...He's accused of the murder of his fiancée Tanya. He's always said he's innocent and is still trying to prove his innocence after two and half years behind bars. He has an appeal in the works, but even fighting the justice system without the support of his family can take its toll on him and leave him with doubts that he will be freed and acquitted of the charges brought against him. But even though he's locked in a place he shouldn't be it doesn't stop him from becoming Top Dog that all the other prisoners look up too and nobody messes with him. Well that is other than a new inmate, James. He wants to try and take the position from Edward but all he ends up is getting his ass landed in the infirmary and Edward gets sent down to the block on basic rations.

Enter Bella, who is the new psychiatrist on Edwards wing. She's vowing to get to the bottom of what makes Edward tick and who he is behind the shield of the Top Dog Position. But whilst looking over his file she comes across holes it. Things and certain evidence and testimonies that were ignored and lead to him being found guilty instead of innocent. Now she vows to help free Edward and get him acquitted also.

A revelation from Edwards parents whilst he's in prison leaves him more broken than he was and its only with the help of Bella that he manages to get himself together. We also get to see an underlying love story bloom between Edward and Bella. She risks her whole career to help him, and also there is a few chaste kisses along the way. As I said before, this is only 8 chapters in so far and I cannot wait to see where it goes from here. With Edwards appeal coming up I'm sure we are all in for one hell of a plot!

GoodFortune by RobotMoose

When I first started reading this story my heart was Tiny, Black and Ice cold. Seriously the solar ice caps would have been like a trip to the Caribbean compared to it. But with each chapter my tiny, black and ice cold heart seemed to swell in size and become pinker faster than you could say "Holy-Clark-Kent-Superman-Edward" We have a Bella and Edward who are stuffy accountants by day only to reveal the tattooed, pierced and motorcycle riding Bella and Edward by night.

We have Bella and Edward who have worked together in the same accountancy firm for roughly 6 years. Edward has admired and wanted Bella from afar were as Bella see's Edward like everyone else in the firm, a nerdy, boring, stuffy, grey accountant. After a chance meeting at the copy machine Bella see's a side to Edward she has never seen before and upon a hot kissing session and the removal of Edwards glasses this is what Bella thinks:~

"Boring Edward isn’t boring; he’s hiding. He’s fucking Superman hiding as Clark Kent all day, just like I am. And he’s a kissing god. I can only imagine what other super powers he possesses"

Things move from a hot make-out at the copy machine to an extremely hot sexual encounter in the supply room!

But, damn there's always a But! Edward has secrets he's hiding and when Bella finds out after said encounter in the supply room, the shit hits the fan. All this in only the first couple of chapters! Bella isn't so perfect herself though has has issues of her own to overcome, she has fears and insecurities, but will Edward be able to help break free of them. And will Bella be able to help Edward break free of his owns demons from his past? Well you'll just have to read to find out! We are 21 chapters in so show your support by reading and reviewing!

Becoming Bella by Ms. Bond

OK so every time I read a new chapter of this story I hear this simple line from the Twilight film "You're a strong independent woman" and through the chapters that is what I think of Bella.

Bella finally has the courage to leave her mentally abusive husband James. He doesn't physically abuse her but throughout they're marriage he tears down her self esteem and confidence . He makes her feel like she isn't worthy and her best friends Rose and Alice only want her to leave him. One day Bella has enough packs a suitcase and turns up on Rose and Alice's doorstep telling them she's left James and is never going back.

Does James let her go willingly, that would be a big fat NO! He calls pretending to be nice and wants her back only to be fuelled by hatred when she tells him no. He tries to emotionally drag her down time and time again, but Bella is having none of it.

Then we have Edward who's just moved from Chicago and is starting his life over, meets Bella and is instantly drawn to her. He hears her playing the piano and singing one night at the bar she helps run and is mesmerised with her. From that moment on we see a beautiful relationship begin. Of course as friends first and then it blooms into more.

Edward learns all about James and his treatment of Bella and vows to protect her and it seems he may need to as James starts to show off a violent side when he wrecks Bella's car after her refusal to do what he wants.

We're 14 chapters in so far and I've loved every part of it and can't wait to see were it goes!

Hit By Destiny by ocdmess

This is an amazing Angst story, it's incredably Dark so if you aren't 18 or over then I wouldn't advise you to read this. If you do, you do it at your own risk!

Bella wants to die and is constantly plotting ways to commit suicide. She never used to be this way up until 3 month prior. Her mother is all kinds of bat shit crazy. She did something to Bella one night that involved Billy and his son Jacob who was also at the time best friends with Bella. We haven't got to the point in the story yet were its revealed what happened but we do know that what ever it was they done went wrong and they forced Bella to say she tried to commit suicide to cover up for them. Now Bella actually wants to die to escape he life that is a living hell.

Not only does Bella have troubles at home she has troubles in her school life as well. She's picked on relentlessly and called names "Goose" being the main one. Enter Edward Cullen. If you think your going to fall in love with him from the first chapter and he comes in and saves Bella then think again. Edward is THEE biggest Douche I have ever read about in all the FanFiction stories I have read so far. God he really deserves the award for "Assward" of the year! But this is what the author wants you to feel about him and I have to praise her because in every chapter I wanted to write myself into the story and kick his hateful arrogant ass.

He hates Bella and when she accidentally bumps into him one day and knocks him over and get him covered in mud. He stands up and threatens her in front of everyone, telling her he'll kill her before stumping of home to get changed. Little did he know that that night that he would run her over with his precious volvo. He hits a patch of black ice and can't stop in time. Bella ends up with major injuries that will leave her with a disability for the rest of her life.

Now you'd think that this would change Edward, Wrong again! At the scene of the accident he mentally shuts down and become numb, therefore becoming an even bigger douche than he already is. He blames everyone, especially Bella before he will own up to any fault himself. But what I read throughout Edwards Douchebaggery is that he is in a state of denial. He's more broken by the accident than he cares to know even himself. So he puts up this wall and his asshole attitude come out in full force.

So far the story is 23 chapters in and we don't see the tiny changes in Edward until chapter 22. After an accident at school involving Bella brings out Edwards vunerable side, and by that I mean just a tiny bit. I'm so excited to see what happens from here. I can't wait to see the relationship between Edward and Bella progress from hating each other to becoming friends and then more.

Your Not Sorry by edwardandbellabelong2gether

Oh how I lurve this story! If your looking for something to read were James has lost his damn mind and is evil in every sense of the word. Then look no further than Your Not Sorry!

Bella moves to Forks to live with her Dad and two brothers Emmett and Jasper. On her first day at Forks high she bumps into Edward and they form a relationship almost instantly. In comes his two best friends in the form of James and Jacob who take an instant disliking to Bella as they believe she is trying to take Edward away from them.

James will literally stop at nothing to tear the love struck teens apart. Jacob is forced to go along as James knows he's hiding a secret and he uses it as a form of blackmail against him.

Such Great Heights by SydneyAlice

This has to be one of the most endearing stories I have ever read! Bella having graduated 2 months previously in Elementary Education is stuck in a rut as she can't find a teaching position. Rose and Alice form an intervention of types and get her a job as Roses brothers new nanny. Edward is at his wits end as four nannies haven't been able to cope with looking after his son Riley. Why might you ask?...Well, 5 y/old Riley is dealing with the fact that his mother left him.

Now we all know that there are plenty of nanny stories out in the fandom, so what makes this story so different from all the others? In all the other stories we read about a child who is more or less beyond perfect. In this story we read about a child who at first seems like the devils spawn. He lashes out, throws things and hates everyone who he doesn't know. But really what we are reading about is a 5 y/old boy with insecurities of abandonment. His mother Jessica never really showed him proper affection. Never played with him and had very strict rules.

Bella comes along and immediately knows were the problems lie. She helps Edward see the mistakes that have been made and how to rectify them. She more or less helps Edward to learn and grow as father.

Of course there's feelings between Edward and Bella, but this is a slow burn story. Its about helping Edward and Riley first and foremost. And guess what?...its only 4 chapters in so far!!

I'm hooked and have been since chapter one! I started off being horrified at Riley's behaviour only to be crying for him by chapter 3. I'm sure he wont be fixed just yet and we have a long way to go yet. I cannot wait to see were we go from here!

Breaking Trinity by VvDeadRosesvV

Were to start with this one?? This is a story thats full of rawness, passion, lust and of course Snarling. If you think that the snarling is because Edward is a vampire, then you would be wrong! Because its an all human story.

When Edward crosses path with Bella his animalistic side comes out in full force. He can smell her and sense her and generally he feels the need to consume her fully. But underneath the rawness, passion and lust there is a plot of secrets and pain with the both of them. Bella has ran away from Phoenix to live with her dad, but what exactly did she run away from? And what is Edward hiding that could possibly ruin everything he has built up with Bella?

You must read this story, like now!

Disgusting & Vile Human Beings!

A story has come up on FanFiction.net about paedophilia. I am urging all account holders to report this at:-

reportabuse@fanfiction.com story id:5665275

I will not be posting any links to this story as I refuse to read it. Its disgusting and the author who wrote it should be ashamed of themselves.

They say this was written as a bet. Who in their right minds comes up with something so sick and twisted is beyond me.

All I will say is that I really hope the author of this story and those involved in the bet seeks medical help as soon as possible.

Also I think they fail to realise that anything to do with child abuse is a POLICE MATTER!! and they could possibly serve jail time for this. I hope they do!

*Update* FanFiction.net has pulled the story....Thanks to all who reported it!!

The MotherFucking Colour Of Edward Cullens Hair!

Ok so I have to say that this is a bit of a touchy subject for me. There is many amazing stories out in the fandom that have this subject so wrong.

BRONZE IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM CAN BE DESCRIBED AS COPPER!

Copper is a colour that is a lighter shade of ginger.

Bronze is a medium brown with red under currents giving off the bronze effect.

Now I mean no offence to any author out there who has described his hair as copper in their stories. I just had to get this off my chest. I love a lot of the stories out there with this description. I just have to close my eyes and take heavy deep breaths every time I see the word copper.

Volition by Rochelle Allison

This is a story which I now hold very close to my heart. When I first seen this in other peoples favourites lists I kept reading over what it was about and having a war inside my head as to if I should read it or not. It took me a few weeks to actually do it and I'm so glad I did.

The story is set in Belfast 1972 and basically when "The Troubles" as it is referred to in Belfast was just reaching its peak. Edward is in the IRA along with Emmett who are fighting the cause against Police Brutality. Now I wasn't born until 1981 but my parents lived through this time and it was one of the worst times to live in Belfast. My dad is English and couldn't speak outside his home in case the IRA thought he was in the armed forces and he would of been killed. Hense the reason why I was hesitant. But this story gives you a look into a time when it wasn't about Catholics and Protestants killing each other because of their religion. It goes back to were it all really began, when it was a cause worth fighting for.

Rochelle put a lot of research into this story even down to the slang we speak, those little quirky sayings that you would never hear anyone say outside of Belfast. Every place told or described within the story is real. Every street name and down to our very own Queens University.

But not only is this a factual story, its a love story too. Bella loves Edward and chooses to stand by his side through thick and thin. She wont give up on him but will she be able to tame the reble that is Edward away from a very dangerous path he's on? Well read it and find out. More importantly make sure you review it!

I'm so proud of Rochelle for bringing this story into the FanFiction world, she's done it complete justice and I'm so glad I read it!

After having enough of Edwards attitude Emmett confronts his brother and an argument begins with Emmett then saying things he didn't mean. That same night Edward packs a bag and leaves a note stating simply "Be Careful What You Wish For".

This story has captured me from the first chapter and I highly recommend you go read it and review it. The storyline is unique and concentrates on an issue which in my opinion isn't overly voiced enough throughout the world. It will open you up to something that most people would think doesn't really happen and the author therfore is raising awareness to this particular subject.

Vegas Baby! by jslack

What's that saying your friends always tell you "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" it's such a shame that no one ever told Bella and Edward this.

Chapter one starts off with Bella waking up in a bed in one of the most expensive suits in a hotel having no idea how she got there. While controlling the pounding in her head she notices a lot of opened condom wrappers and suddenly flashbacks start happening in her head.

In a drunken stupor she married playboy Edward Cullen. Edward appears from the bathroom freshly showered and freshly angry from the previous nights nuptials. When their friends come to Edwards room an argument erupts but Bella is pulled away from it by a phone call telling her that her Ex-Boyfriend, enter Jacob Black, has been involved in a motorbike crash. Bella leaves Vegas under the impression that Edward will start proceedings for an annulment. Pity how things never go as planned.

Full of Angst/Drama I love this story. Yes by the title you might think you all know what happens but you couldn't be farther from the truth. There is a lot of twists and turns with in this story and we get to see how a playboy finds the one thing he never though he had missing in his life.

How To Save A Life by unholy.obsession

This story by far is my #1 favourite on the Angst scale. If you haven't started reading this amazing story so far then I highly recommend that you start right now.

What's this story about you ask? Well Bella moves to Forks for her senior year of High School and meets the bubbly Alice. Alice then introduces her to Jasper, Rose and Emmett. In comes her brother Edward who was once the Golden boy of school and is now a former shadow of himself. But what has Edward this way? I'm not going to tell you here as it would spoil the plot and the Angst that this amazing author has built up. All I can say is, that Bella has a tough exterior on the outside whilst battling with her own demons of a flighty mother. But she will stop at nothing until she finds out what happened to Edward. She wants to help him and slowly but surely each chapter Edwards walls start to crumble bit by bit and he lets her get closer to him than any of his other friends or family. I'm not saying Bella achieves this easily, far from it.

The build up in each chapter will leave you wanting to hug the hell out of Edward and wrap him up and put him in your pocket to protect him. You'll want to jump into the story yourself and take him away from the path of self destruction he's on. You'll want to stand side by side with Bella as she tries to help him.

You'll cry, smile, and *sigh* a lot throughout this story which I can only commend and give praise to the author for as it shows what a truly amazing author she is. And this is only her first story! So please read it and more importantly review it. Nothing is more important to an author than reviews from the readers.

Its currently 15 chapters in and I promise you'll be hooked from chapter 1! I cannot wait to see were it goes from here!
