 Pregnant at 18, Bella struggles to make peace with her decision to give her baby up for adoption. Her father suggests moving in with her mother and step-father in Ohio for a change of pace. She meets Edward, a young Amish widower conflicted about his faith after his wife's death. Can they form a bond strong enough to help each other heal?

This story is very loosely based off of a story called Autumn’s Promise by Shelley Shepard Gray. It has no smut in it and is very Christian based (it’s an Amish story, so...lol!) but it’s so sweet and I hope some of you will check it out!

Edward Cullen is the heir-apparent to the most infamous crime families in Chicago. He was notorious for his time with his enemies, his many dates and his ruthless skill in the board room, the front for the illicit dealings of the Cullen Crime Consortium. However, to take over the family, his father reminded him about the stipulation that Edward needed to be married. Edward hated that stipulation, but he agreed to it and he had less than a year to make it a reality.

Isabella Swan is a struggling graduate student, working as a waitress in a local diner, The Swan Dive. On a chance meeting, Edward finds Bella to be enchanting and the perfect woman to marry. He makes an indecent proposal, suggesting marriage and paying for Bella’s tuition, and then some. Will Bella accept his proposal, with the possibility of having her dreams come true, but married to a sexy, enigmatic rich businessman? Or will she figure out the truth, that her future-husband is Married to the Mob?

A troubling childhood has left Bella shy and scared of her own shadow. Her life is turned upside down when she is sent to live with the Dad and brother she never knew at the age of 15. Can Charlie and Emmett along with Edward and the gang help Bella? E/B, A/J Em/? *abuse is discussed*

What if Edward did not take the dramatic route and wait till noon to step into the sun in Volterra?  What if Alice and Bella were incapable of getting to him in time?  What if he was not the only casualty of bad timing and misread visions?

This story takes us down an alternate path than what we followed in New Moon.  The Cullen’s are no longer whole and Bella is so badly damaged that she may be unreachable as she closes herself off to the pain of the outside world.

Can a new love save her?  Can his voice pull her from the darkness?

This story is rated NC-17 for major angst, suicide and the possibility of far off lemons (who am I kidding?  If you have read any of my stories, you know there will be lemons…but not for a while).

Edward left Bella the day after he makes love to her for the first time. Join Bella on her journey of love, laughter, pain and tears. Will love be enough to bring him back? Will the love of his baby be enough?
