To be fair to Billy, perhaps he felt the indescretion he witnessed between Jacob and Jared was only a one time thing and that Jake came to his senses by choosing Bella.

It is nice seeing Edward's walls crumble. Needing to keep Jared at theirs away from the sleeping Bella was perfect. I cannot wait to see Edward's reaction to Bella's comment about Alice's shoes....

What a beautiful and emotional day with the parents! I must be so nice being pulled into such a wonderful family setting when you would otherwise be alone with your memories and heartache.

Esme requesting her special song was a treat. Edward is falling hard and is unable (unwilling?) to hide it from anyone. I liked the stop on their way home. It showed depth of a moment and Bella had a moment to release more emotions. I found the officer checking in to be a nod to Charlie and Jake even if Bella didn't pause to consider it such.

I enjoyed the moment of clarity at Wild when Mike stopped in to declare himself. Jessica made an ass of herself, displaying her bitchy self before her ex and her date. Edward had a moment to claim Bella on a discreet level, but still showing his support of her while she dealt quite well with the situation.

James is going to continue to be a pain in the ass, isn't he? It would seem that his wife should be able to step up and remind him that he is supposed to be HERS and to stop oogling other women.

I can't help but feel I am missing something between Jasper and Emmett... Obviously they are placing bets, but I'm not always sure over what specifically.

A couple days of true reflection and healing for Edward. Time to move forward. A night of drinking and dancing, and one HELL of a hot kiss!

Rose really set Bella up for an incredible opportunity. Edward's arrival back home couldn't have been any more perfect! Then his eavesdropping on the girls really was an eye opener for him. I wonder if Alice knew he was listening?

I bet if Bella makes herself go on a date with Mike, she ends up miserable pining for Edward. Edward who know is mentally referring to Bella as 'his'... very interesting development!

Bella certainly has been welcomed into the fold. I look forward to her meeting Edward - er - Alice's parents. I guess that they will think similarly to Alice toward Bella.

Hehehe! What are the chances that the scene in Alice's office was orchistrated byt the girls??

Good for Bella! Running sucks. And very nice writing on the lime!

ohhhhhh....nothing like competition to open 'someone's' eyes!!!

I was so happy when I got the update email from fanfic but went to read it and it wasn't there. So I decided to review here.

Option 1 dress is my favorite, but I also really love the color of 5.

I really love how Bella came to her senses quickly and went home. I am also very happy that they know Tanya was lying about those critic reviews. Can't wait for the next one. 

I was so happy and excited to see Chapter 25 god I love this story...I can't wait until they go to Forks....they haven't had sex yet but god it is so HOT !

Brenda

Well I am glad she followed Tanya. At first I thought she was nuts. I think it was a great idea. She saw he did not follow Tanya. She heard that sick woman's story. So all he told her based on what he knew was true.  Great idea.

I am glad she applogoised.

Damn this chapter really turned out Wonderful!!!! Thank you big mouth bass Tanya for spilling the beans so to speak on the way she treated Edward, Not EDDIE Tanya, he hates being called Eddie~ Tanya! 

Thank you so much for letting Bella really think things through and realize that he loves her and give him a chance.  Loved the Lemons of course.  They are perfect together !!!!

Great chapter, I'm glad tanya could give Bella a little more confidence during thier, umm...heart to heart?

Bella has grown so much since the begining of the story.  Can't wait for th enext one!

First, I love this story. I'm so in love with these two it's not funny. I read the first 24 chapters in one day. Second my vote for Ball Gown # 3. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next chapter.

I'd hate to think I would contribute to any withdrawal symptoms!!

Really excellent chapter, I'm looking forward to reading further!!

Oh How I love Love LOVE this story!!!!

Laters BB  Kathy xoxoxoxoxo

Oh my I think it's starting to get to him!!!! "starting?  yea right..."  that boat already sailed!!!!

can we say priceless Jane!!!  Can we say Triple take Jack!!!!  That was wonderful Edward!!!!

yes, as heart wrenching as it is, I saw this coming!  But now she knows there is nothing she could have done to change the outcome. 

so glad that our sweet Bella moved to Seattle, Renee is one crazy rude bitch.  Want to see a totally deplorable Renee as Bella's mother go read "People Like Us"...

Love this story!!! You rock!!!!

EEK!!!! God she is a danger magnet can't imagine the type of trouble she will get into...

oooooh loved the glimpse into Carlisle & Esme, but this turn of events at then end is positively maddening... where is Bella going?? why is she following Tanya? will this lead her to more clues about the mystery person? Can't wait....

Love the chemistry and dialogue building and I also liked the little bit of Alice's perspective. Very fun.

wow... you are one awesome writer!!! I can hardly wait to read your next update.... thank you so much for this terrific story!!!

loving this story.

YAY!!! They finally kissed. Great story...I started reading yesterday and I can only read after my kids go to bed so needless to say, I'm missing out on sleep. It's been worth it!

i love the story on twlilighted and saw it on here its getting really hot and heavy cant wait to see what these 2 have instore for eachother

Great just great!!!

Whats the bet the lone customer was someone special????

Yuk!! James creepophile...she showed him, ha, ha...just love the idea of Clive A. Seagull.

There is one that sits outside the window of a particular restaurent in Allessio, Italy, every evening, (or did up until last year) looking for scraps...it was hilarious, cheeky big bugger as well use to tap on the window.

Can you believe Billy willing to destroy three live to save him having to face the truth. Some friend to Charlie and some father in law to Bella... loved the last line in the chapter.

There is so much in each chapter...where do I start...the father's day meal, all of them are so sweet and caring. The fight outside of the restaurent, she is not as helpless as you think. Her present, she is bright ,intelligent and knows her man...he,he

All the pieces of the story are subtley arranged within the story...every now and then one bites... Mikes a twit, he,he.

Ha,ha,ha,ha...he is so completely and totally f*cked!!!! just love it.

Okay here is another way to look at this sexual innocence. She dated a gay guy and of course no sex. She married and still no sex and she is stressing out because she waited to be married and then not full filled. Now she is dating yet another more experienced handsome guy and because she is not experienced he wants to wait..... SHE HAS WAITED LONG ENOUGH. Now granted she needs to be loved not just f..ked but hey. She has done the waiting thing. That is why she feels so inferior.

wow... need a shower..

1. Love the lovin'

2. why oh why is all the money in her ROOM. I'm going to be so upset if that gets stolen......

Bella bless her heart married and still a virgin. That could destroy self confidence in a woman.

Edward came off the top, so his girl was a whore. Yes she messed with his business and made him feel it was not solid. At least he came away with his own masculinity.

I realize she gets him in the end. I think Jacob was never a real friend to do that to her. He used her I guess in the worst way only for his front.. BEARD as they say.

He hasn't got a chance...

Awwwww. Very sweet. Lovely little pep talk, very thoughtful.

Hmm... time for a little pixie dust. -- best line ever :)

I really like how you told Rose/Emmett's story. It was intense- I was ready with Bella for a breather.

As a big fan of Jasper in general, I cannot say how much I appreciate the danger-man persona. Lovely complements to the Main Game of course, of Bella and Edward...

Alice is so evil...

I have only read the first 2 chapters so far but can tell you that I am hooked and will be here to the bitter end. I am loving your writing and am shocked that you have so few reviews. Keep up the FANTASTIC work!

Rereading just love this story.
