Yep, loved ths story. Sad, to see it end but it ended in a good spot.
Date: 27 Feb 2014 7:16 AM Title: Somewhere I Belong
This chapter made me cry. I had barley started reading this story 2 days ago and am already done, well except the epilogue which is next. But between 3 kids, school and work that's huge. This story has been great and mostly realalistic. Most stories are not. But this one kind of is. I just thought I would drop a line and tell you that this is a great story. But I am sad to see it end.

Yeah. Great chapter and story. I loved the maturity of these two. Great job.
Date: 20 Jan 2014 11:18 AM Title: Epilogue
I really enjoyed this story, it was written with a lot of real emotion. You could believe and feel each character come alive. Some you love and some you want to slap around for a bit, but in the end you still got the HEA!
Date: 15 Jan 2014 10:10 PM Title: Epilogue
I'M SO GLAD I GOT TO SEE YOUR STORY TO THE END, I HAVEN'T MUCH TIME LEFT MYSELF BUT I STILL TRY TO READ SOME NOT DOING MUCH OF IT LATELY I JUST GOT HOME FROM A 9 DAY STAY IN THE HOSPITAL I HOPE TO STILL BE AROUND FOR YOUR NEXT STORY.

Wow, Renee really did self-destruct.
Charlie disappointed me in his inability to reconcile with Bella.
How very appropriate is it that a little girl who lost nearly every relative, found a Place To Belong. They have come full circle.
Beautiful story!
I've listed you as a favorite author so I won't miss any of your plotbunnies hopping into existence. Happily awaiting another story.

I got so excited about this update that I startled a couple of my coworkers! ;-) I'm so glad Renee got her first taste of Bella's independence and Mamabear Esme when you screw with one of her cubs! I actually had a laugh as I had a flashback to Harry Potter and the deathly hallows part two mrs weaseley and belatrix "not my daughter you bitch!" Lol can't wait for next update!

I never understood the promise ring for adult people. Why not get engaged and have a long engagement. Just because you get engaged doesn't mean you have to get married within a year. It just means you will one day get married. But I love this story. I will miss it.
Date: 29 Oct 2013 11:31 PM Title: Somewhere I Belong
Loved reading this story.Her mother is a real piece of work!but the Cullen's love them!

Woo Hoo Glad Esme got there in time. ROFL for Tyler and Garrett making Renee lose her cool.
Aww for T-day.

That was so beautiful. Can I belong here too? Great job. Btw. Last chapter. Esme totally channeled her inner mrs weasley. Loved it.

Will Renee's affair be exposed?
Will Charles Swan divorce Renee?
If Renee is out of the picture maybe Bella and her father can attempt a reconciliation?
Momma bear, Esme, is truly a force to be recond with in the midst of her rage.
I like the idea of a betrothal/promise ring.
Date: 28 Oct 2013 2:39 AM Title: Somewhere I Belong
This was so good. So what does Charlie really think of everything that has been going on with Bella? Is Renee giving him the truth or her BS??
Loved it and looking forward to more :)

Congratulations on becoming a grandma! I thought I was too young at 48 to carry the title, but the past three years have been a delight to share with the beautiful little girl that calls me grandma. She has a brother on the way in November. Another bundle to hug and spoil! I'm not so leary of the distinguished title any more. I hope you are blessed with several more to fill your family with joy and endless energy.

What a great confrontation scene. Truly dynasty worthy. Great job.
Date: 05 Aug 2013 6:52 PM Title: Done
Well, Renee didn't show her hand per se; but left us all believing she is directly involved with the negative image photos. Let's think about the actual value these pictures could have for Edward and Bella. Maybe the photos could be released to the press under the guise of 'young love knows no political boundaries', 'but shares a common desire to serve people through the world of medicine'. That would beat Renee to the punch or anyone else for that matter trying to discredit the two young lovers.
I have a feeling Edward was right on the money when he mentioned Charles Swan not being truthfully informed of his wife's threats against his only daughter. What will the fallout be for Renee when all this is revealed?
Where is James?
Author's Response:
Hi! First I want to thank you for the awesome review and then second I want to thank you for the amazing idea. Your idea about releasing the pics to the media in a positive way is awesome and I've decided to run with it. But I also want to give you the credit you deserve for the idea. So I can do it a couple of ways. One would be to use your name or a name of your choosing in the chapter as the reporter who gives releases the stroy to the public. The other would be to thank you in my authors note where I would let everyone know it was your idea I ran with in the chapter. Either way is fine with me as long as you don't have any objections to them. Just let me know which way you'd prefer and I will go with it.
You can contact me through here or at my email address of cullensince1918@gmail.com

Looking forward to more!! SOON PLEASE! :)
Date: 16 Jul 2013 2:51 AM Title: A Part of the Family
So glad Bella finally got the chance to set Luke straight on her feelings for Edward. The visual actions between E&B sent the message clearly stating they are together right where they belong.
Alice's rant/interrogation of Edward was very slap stick funny.
So that noise Edward heard as he walked Bella to her dorm room was a photographer snapping shots of them kissing. It's possible Renee sent them but I'm wondering if Luke's sister Kelsey trying to make Bella look bad in the eyes of Edward's family?
Author's Response:
Hi! Yes Bella did set Luke straight. One of the things that really annoyed me about Bella in the books was how even thought we knew she loved Edward in a completely different way than Jake, she always weavered on making that clear to Jake. So I wanted to make sure Luke knew without a doubt who her heart belonged to.
Yes Alice is a hoot. I had a lot of fun writing that scene. And yeah, the sounds that Edward heard was someone snapping pics of them. You should have a pretty clear idea who is behind it soon.
Chapter 22 will be up later today once I get it back from my beta and have it all fixed up. Until then here's a teaser for ya...
"Mmm, good morning," she whispered and rolled over to face me.
Somehow when she'd shifted her position her breast had slid under the palm of my hand. Bella froze and her eyes shot to mine. I moved to pull my hand away from her but she grabbed my wrist and held it in place.
"It's okay," she said softly leaving me frozen this time. "You can touch me."
I didn't know what to say. What to do. So I did nothing.
Bella removed her hand from my wrist and placed it behind my head. She then pulled me down to her and kissed me softly before gazing up at me. Her eyes sparkled with desire.
All sense of restraint left me when she hooked her leg over mine and rolled back, pulling me on top of her. I pressed her into the mattress as I covered her lips with mine and kissed her with all the passion that was surging through me.
Bella responded instantly with equal fervor, hitching her leg tighter around mine and pushing up against me. The urge to grind against her was overwhelming
....Is it just me or is it getting warm in here? Thanks for reading!

Good. I'm glad no one gave her a hard time. But I so think mama and papa swan are up to no good. They just wouldn't let Bella go without causing some sort of trouble.

Hi! Edwards family will be behind them 100%. I think after the next chapter you will know who is behind the pics.

I am so sorry your life has been so hard lately. I hope you and your daughter are happier. I get the whole crazy ex...
Now I would like to say a couple fo things. (Venting, NOT FLAMING!! Please don't get mad.)
1. He wants her first time to be special.. Am I crazy, didn't they make love on the island?
2. Bella's confidence might not have been shaken to the core, if Edward would have just grown up and not acted like a "I don't know if I can forgive you"BRAT!! She didn't tell him who her folks were. It was miner all in all!
3. Her folks are POS's!! ( yep that is pieces of sh*t!) She will need a lot of support to come to terms with these ash-holes. Her mother is the worst... but her dad is no angel!!
4. IF he hadn't been such a jerk, then maybe his fears of her leaving him wouldn't arise. Guilt will do that to you everytime Edward. You have created that little demon!!
5. He talks a good game. Hope he stands by what he said. And not get his panties in such a twist anymore.
I hope you stay happy, and good luck with everything. Thank you for letting me vent. I do love your story!!
Have a wonderful rest of the week.
