I owe you an apology. I began reading last night really late and became so obsessed with your story that I continued to Rate and hit next. So I decided I would come back this morning, more alert, and give you the review that your story deserves!!!
I LOVE YOUR SNARKY ASSED BELLA!!! Her mouth, even though quite rash at times, simply puts everything into a proper perspective. She has verbalized thoughts that I have kept to my self before. And the blush is perfect!!
I LOVE YOUR GLASSES WEARING, LIGHTLY SCARRED SEXY ASSED EDWARD!!!! His history and personality are killing me softly. And when he blushes I just simply melt. I love that his personality is such that he has a beautiful heart!!
Yeah, I put those in caps. Thought it might put more umph into my feelings about these two. Just from reading this epistle can you tell that I LOVE YOUR STORY?
I read that this was your first forray into writing -- well honey, you broke into writing the right way. Truly amazing way with words.
I also read that this was cathartic for your. I believe that by the time you completed this story you must have felt pretty good!!!
Loving the story -- loving your words so well written across the page!!!

PS - I will do my best to review after every chapter!!! But I promise to always leave a rating. The no review from me means that I had to hurry on to the next chapter!!! Smiles shyly here while peaking through my eyelashes!!!!

Ok - a lap dance from Edward. Crap he didn't see my hand raised so instead of looking stupid I lowered the temp in the room!!! :D
This was a chapter well worth waiting for. Can't wait to see where things go with Rose and Emmett.
Loving the story.

And yes, sounds like Mike is a tool!!
Got to hurry - "Next" is calling.

They say the best is saved for last!!!! I've read straight through, time allowing, only giving you the highest rating available. Now that I don't have another "Next" I need to apologize. I should have done a better job reviewing but I just couldn't stop with limited time for reading.
But ---- what an amazing story!!! You covered every emotion there is. Edward and Bella were very creative charachters. I believe the part that I enjoyed the most was from their wedding through to the end of the story. The most emotional part for me was the birth of the triplets. Love Lizzie's and David's personalities but I Marie found a place of my soul. I could see her tug on their ears and that just tugged at my heart. I know the struggles associated with a challenged child. My 18 year old son is not autistic but he is ADD,has a delayed speech pattern and also slight tendencies toward Aspergers. This might help you more understand my FB rant on bullying regarding the review that you received. Yeah, I'm a mom through and through.
I can't wait to read the sequel, time permitting. Im getting my son read to attend technical school in the fall.
Loved the story. You are a very talented and amazing author. Creativity to the Nth degree. I am so happy that I have an entire catalog of your stories to read!!! Thanks for writing for our fandom. I appreciate you so much.

P.S. -- Cacked when I read Rene's middle name!!!!
Bella thought she had found everything in Edward Masen while she was at high school, but when he mysteriously vanishes from her life without a trace Bella has no choice but to move on.
When Bella moves to Washington DC three years later her past comes back to hit her in the face and she realised that loving Edward is going to be a dangerous game, full of fear, pain, action, but most of all passion. AH

Excuse the language here, but it seems to fit my feelings you evoked - damn, that was some deep shit!!! I don't know who I felt for the most, Bella having to experience being molested by that creep; Edward having to watch the love of his life go through that knowing he couldn't do anything without causing teh whole situation to go south; or Jacob, he has some hatred in is blood for the Volturi doesn't he?

Safe, warm, happy, loved, tingly, family, hope, relief - those are just a few of the words that I'm feeling for these two. And let's not forget beautifully written.
I'm a little hesitant to venture forth. This is chapter 34 of 45 -- I almost hear the words - Dum de dum dum!!! I feel you're holding out on me!!! I guess you might be understanding more of why I prefer to read completed fics. I am so impatient when it comes to updates!!! Call it old age or whatever - but, I must shyly and hesitantly hit "next" because I feel something's a coming!!!!

Now that I can breath and know that E&B and the rest of the family are going to be ok ---- I feel the need to rant. I'm so upset with Charlie!!! And I was bragging on him earlier -- you're evil!!! :D He at least realized his error in the end. But he sure made a chaotic mess there for a while!!! Grrrrr. And I loved that Jacob came to check on them.
Wow, I'm getting close to the end of this part. I am so enjoying your story and I can't thank you enough for gifting our fandom with your words!!!!

I am so glad that I saw this rec'd. I don't remember where but fortune was with me that day. I must read the prequel before I put these two characters aside. I know it will be equally as good.
I always enjoy romance but add in suspense and mystery and you are after my heart. Dangerouly In Love had all the elements of a fantastic story. Many authors ramble through their stories only making sure there is lots of sex to hold the reader. But DIL had a true beginning, middle, and joyous ending. You held my attention each and every chapter. That within itself is a feat.
I would love to see you tackle a historical romance - 1800 Regency England. Our fandom has so few of these and this genre is one of my favorites. I feel you would do this type of story justice!!! Who knows, perhaps I just hit you with a plot bunny!!!
Thank you for taking so much of your time writing for our fantastic fandom. You're a brilliant author and I look forward to reading more of your stories and hopefully your book when published this summer!!!
See you soon -- enjoyed!!!! :D

I really like the double entendres and the way you "turn your words" to get the effect you want in a sentece. So few can do that!!!
Thanks for writing!!!!! And I'm enjoying reading on TWCS. After all my favs and alerts have played out I may never go back to FFN!!!

Sinfully delicious - red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting!!! Warm tingly feelings and lustfully delicious.
Loved your story. Was here from FFN simply marking favorites to continue receiving updates and came across this delicious story. I quit marking my favs to read. Captivated by summary and banner!!!
Really liked that Edward was British. Loved the names Bird and Bean. Perfect names for these two characters of yours. And by the way, I could smell chocolate and coffee. Funniest part for me were the teal vans -- sniggered really big on that one.
Well you're my first author to read here - first story - first review. And why did I never find you on FFN. Just realized you were there. "Last Friday Night" is next to read for me. You need to post all your stories here my dear!!!
Thank you for writing for our fandom. Your story was awesome and promise to read and review more of your work. Sorry I can be a wordy girl if I like it!!! :D

Author's Response:
Yay! I popped your TWCS cherry. LOL!! Oh, I love red velvet cake. Like whoa. Nom nom nom. I hate writing summaries so I'm beyond thrilled that mine was able to catch your eye. And isn't the banner fab? I love it. I had to do a British Edward even though I don't know many British-isms. LOL! And you don't like Edward's teal Vans? Hehehe. I don't even know where the idea came from, I was just writing and that's what I typed out. I'm not big on self promoting so I just let the story go by word of mouth. Are you going to read LFN on FFn or are you going to wait until I move it over here? Either way, I hope you like it. It's my baby. Thank you so much for all your kind words. It really means so much me. And apparently I can be a wordy girl as well. LOL!!
Hugs!

Wow, I feel as though I've just completed a run on The Chute myself. The view you painted was spectacular from beginning to end.
I began reading yesterday and have almost read completely through!!!! I've hurried up all my chores to make time for reading Black Diamond. You've definitely put together a perfectly told story. Just the right amount of love, respect, angst, suspense, drama -- well you know -- you wrote it!!! LOL
I must say that I fell in love with Edward when he was on the highway in the Denali. He was one of the most perfect and human Edward's I've read -- and believe me -- I've read thousands of fics. He was, for lack of a better word, perfect!!!
I enjoyed both story settings immensely - ski resort and wine country. I love the learning process regardless of the avenue!!!
I normally read on FFN but have gravitated more and more to TWCS after the great fiasco a few months ago. I've found some awesome authors and stories here.
Thank you for writing for our amazing fandom. I'm looking forward to reading your new fic!!!

School teacher Bella sends a care package and letter to Army sergeant Edward, who is stationed in Afghanistan.
They begin a relationship through letters, phone calls, and video chats.
There's love, there's language, and there's adult situations, plus a strong, independent Bella and the Edward we all know and love.

I don't know of a single reader that you haven't touched something in their lives. Each of you are amazing authors but together you are a dynamic duo that is a force to be reckoned with.
Words that come to mind - palpable, tangible, happy, sad, love, want, desire, togetherness, alone, promises, tenderness, all-consuming -- I could go on and on. Can't wait until tomorrow - And Deb you put a kitten here also!!!!

Heartstrings pulled, tingles and silly giggles. Those are a few of the emotions I felt reading this chapter. I even heard the thud when his head fell against the wall!!! I love it when and author not only gives me tell-all words but also the ability of what I call a "mind video.!"
I don't know what I'm gonna do when I catch up to all that is posted!!! I don't normally read WIP's because when a story is as good and as well written as Coming Home I can get impatient as hell waiting on updates!!!! :D Brilliant authors are what make our fandom so great.

Girls you have to know how great your story is. It's our favorite Twilight couple but a very unique storyline. You are the only WIP that I'm reading right now. I just don't do them -- but -- you can thank Jules Twifanwesomesox for this. We rec each other all the time.

Ladies, I was a full week behind -- bad, bad -- but also good for me!!! I got to read all those chappies at one time. And there will never ever be enough of this story at one time. I'm sorta looking forward to rereading when it's completed.
I also enjoyed the pics of Sarge's things. So sweet of Irina to save those things for him. People simply don't realize the that mundane, everyday simple things are the ones that usually have the most memories of those we loose. Beem there, done that!!
I enjoy each and every chapter that you girls write. Words aren't enough to say how much I appreciate you two writing for our fandom. We have so few really, really good authors that know how to tell a story on pages!!!

Guys, really enjoyed the updates!!! 10,000 reviews on FFN - wow!!! But look up top - you have almost 1,500 on TWCS - and that's awesome for this web site. New fics on TWCS don't get hits like Coming Home has unless it's been up for quite some time. So congrats again ladies!!!
The love between these two simply transcends the pages of this fic. It's quite palpable, not only when they talk to each other, but reading their thoughts. Simply beautiful, sweet and droolworthy!!
Love that Sarge is surprising Bella this way for her birthday. Dare I ask if the red ribbon will come into play -- nicely tied around and ever-growing appendage? It's 8:15 p.m. here in Georgia - yes, I was late reading updates today, but that makes less time between them and I'm already impatient as hell for tomorrow!!!
Love you guys. Love your writing. I'm not looking forward to withdrawals when this comes to conclusion -- guess that means that you two have to come up with another plot bunny just as good. I know you can do it!!!! Just think of all the girls on the FB page not having anything like this to read!!! Feel guilty yet?
Thanks for writing for our awesome fandom.

Jeez, I'm one big hormonal, old woman right at this moment!!!! Wonderful story. You did an awesome job writing and putting it into a format that drew your reader right into the story. You made me feel just like Bella. I want to jump his ass, too!!!
I was looking for something that I could read over several days intermittently between housework (dust bunnies are getting to be the size of Texas because of FF) when I found "Walk." Yeah, right. "Next" flew by like it had nitrous oxide pumped into it!! And what a ride. I absofuckinglutely loved your story (sorry for the ugly word).
Loved the ending!!! Kate finally got her comeuppance and Lilly got a reprieve (“You're off shit shoveling duty, squirt.”). And let's not forget these words "When I first met Bella, I thought she was too young to know what she wanted. Too naïve to make decisions that would affect her entire life. Now that she is surrounded by our five children, I can see how wrong I was to assume such things. She taught me how to live again. She taught me how to love again. She taught me how to walk." Only thing I could add would be the joy of watching both Edward's and Bella's characters go from lost lonliness to love forever, together.
I've already looked for your other stories so I'm sure I'll see you there.
I also owe you an apology. I'm normally a much better reviewer even though I only read "completed" stories. You deserve so much more that just one review from me - so - for that, please accept my apology and promise that I will do better next time.
Thank you for writing for our fandom. I enjoy reading all the wonderful stories that authors give so freely to their readers. I appreciate you so much!!!

Bella Swan works as a nurse at Cook County Hospital in the ER. She's older and desperate for love. It's hindered by her shy personality and plump body. Her father, whom she lives with, teases her relentlessly for being fat and single.
Edward Cullen, thirty-three, is hired as a doctor in the ER. He's getting over a divorce. He moved to Chicago to be closer to his family: sister, Rosalie, and brother, Jasper. Rosalie is younger than Edward by ten years and is struggling with an eating disorder brought on by a heinous rape of her ex-boyfriend. Jasper, twenty-seven, is finishing up his doctorate in history.
Bella is charmed by this new doctor in the ER. He's kind and thinks about his patients and maintains a friendly rapport with the nurses and orderlies. Edward is intrigued by the sad nurse who does her job efficiently but doesn't have a sparkle in her eyes.
Will she allow Dr. Cullen into her life or will she let her insecurities get in the way of her happiness. Perhaps, Dr. Feelgood can write her a prescription. A prescription for love...

What a great story!!! Lots of emotions. I loved each chapter and am sorry that I didn't review after each and every one. I just kept hitting next. So sorry for that.
I want to applaud you for taking on a subject that is near and dear to my heart. Overweight. Not every human is lucky to never experience that. While throughout my life I've had my ups and downs, I finally just learned that I am who I am. Once I accepted that fact my life became more bearable. Even people's perceptions changed. I believe others experience the vibes that you exude. They see the way you face life.
One thing that I would like for you to consider. I know you have a lot of writing on your plate. You do an amazing job telling stories. I'd love for you to write a PG-13 version of this story for the younger girls who struggle with this issue. Self-worth is a valuable trait and can be hard to obtain. As you wrote Bella, you put each and every aspect into the proper perpsective, from when she was younger, losing her mother, dealing with a self-destructive and abusive father through learning how to love onself and believe that it's ok to be what you are. But the wonderful way you put Edward's love and friendship for Bella into words was very powerful and simply special. There is someone out there for everyone - somewhere, someway. You just have to have faith, continue to believe in yourself and have hope. And as you've relayed, sometimes these things come even when you least expect them.
I've loved all of your stories that I've read. I still have a few more that I need to get to. Thank you for writing for our fandom. I admire you and your talents. Your words are very heartfelt.

OMG - I am completely drawn in!!! I've had Sperm Donor Wanted on alert since the beginning -- see I don't usually read WIP's. Sorry ;) I've been burned with fics left in the water to drown and am such an admittedly impatient person waiting on a fic to update. But, all it took was your posting "A new spin on one of my older fics...Hope you like it!" and my curiosity for rewites. So I had to have a look. Read the first few lines with trepidation. But scruffy bikerward just sucked me in. And then you thow in the most mindgrabbing story line with 2 cute-as-fuck kiddies, one that's a smarty pants and one that says "heben." And now, of course, little old impatient me can't wait for the next update!!!! cackles loudly here!!
Well, let's just say, you have a new admirer. I will be here for each and every update and FB posting! Smiles shyly and drags toe across floor.

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this quick read. I don't usually read drabbles but I am so glad that I took the time this morning. I must also tell you that JA Mash's graphics in each chapter were absolutely perfect. Simply nailed!!!
Love a good Beachward. I don't believe there are enough in our fandom. But who am I to say -- just one of my many preferences. :D
The story was very well written. Sometimes, for me, the electricity between 2 characters is more powerful than the actual lemon. You captured that perfectly. Both their stories are so sad yet they get a happy ending. I was surprised at Carlisle's character. This is my first fic where he is gay! Those two chapters about him made me draw my breath in. When I read he turned off the engine my heart was in my throat and the word "tortured" came to mind!!! I have several gay and lesbian friends and I feel after reading this that perhaps I haven't looked at life from their perspective. So much food for thought here.
Thank you so much for writing for our fandom. I appreciate the gifts that you gift to us!!! I look forward to reading more of your work.

I do believe this is my favorite Edward that you've written, a bit more complex. He's simply sexy as hell!!! I also enjoyed the strength that you gave Bella. A "Oh woe is me!" Bella would definitely wilt on that chair!! :D
The story was fantastic. The visuals an extra experience that was unexpected. I hope this bit of fluff helps everyone realize they all have a "personality" that resembles this - even if deep down.

Great story! I enjoyed OTC very much. Smirky is among my favorite fic Edwards now.
Sorry I didn't review after each chapter, but I really got into the story.
I kept waiting for all the grammar problems that you talked with me about on FaceBook. There were a few, but, as the story progressed they became less and less. Perhaps it's just not being sure which adjective/adverb to use in our crazy English language. Anywho, the story is strong enough for any reader to overlook the few that are there.

I cannot tell you how honored I am to know that you love Smirky so much. The greatest joy of writing is knowing that I put a smile on someone's face. So thank you for telling me this.
I still shudder when I read the first chapters of OTC, that's how much the mistakes bug me. But I'll take your compliment graciously and just say that I'm thankful to have you read and leave such a beautiful review for me.
I love being a part of this amazing fandom and having the friends I make on facebook through it (wink!wink! You're one of them. ;) )

I also enjoyed that there was a real story and not just a lot of fluffy lemons. Don't get me wrong, I love to read lemons, but this story just didn't need them.

Sophisticated, beautiful and touching story. Down-to-earth situations that many, many people experience in their lives. Perfectly written to create similar feelings in your readers.
Bella and Edward both experienced overwhelming love, self-doubt, and overwhelming heartbreaks that created near unconquerable fissures. All of their happy and heartrending feelings jumped off the page into my heart. I kept tissues by my bedside and used them often. I also piced up a magazine and fanned a few times. If I smoked, I'd probably have smoked an entire pack reading the last chapters.
I've enjoyed reading "Angry All The Time." I hope to read more of your stories in the near future.

I was looking for a short, quick read to help me get to sleep last night when I found ATLBL&H. Boy did I pick the wrong story! I was consumed from the very beginning. Eyes wide open and wanted more when I finished the last chapter.
The electricity between Edward and Bella was quite tangible. I enjoyed watching them skirt around each other until they finally had to face reality. It was like kissing and falling in love. I felt like a voyeur watching these two tango and tangle.
Bella’s reveal was very shattering. Simply heartrending. And, jeez, when you revealed that Edward was a virgin, I simply sat straight up and said “I believe I need to read that again!” Awesome spin on his “tarnished douche canoe” character.
I enjoyed reading ATLBL&H sooo very much. Sorry I didn’t review until today. And yes, I did get to sleep with some really nice thoughts of an awesome Edward.

I enjoyed your story very much. Bella was such a tenacious mother. Edward was her perfect partner. He somehow seemed to know what she needed, when she needed it and did his best to make sure she received it. They were perfect together.
I enjoyed reading Tanya in a different light. I have a lesbian niece and you nailed her character. There are so many misconceptions about a gay lifestyle.
