Bella at age thirteen is left with nothing more than a fake ID, and two year old twin half siblings to care for.  She makes due knowing it is up to her to give them a good life and education, she was never given.  Working as a cleaner at the university five years later, she meets Professor Masen a man who believes all women are out to hurt, or destroy him.  Can an uneducated Bella teach him something?  What will happen when Bella is another woman who has hid the truth from him?

Very mature subjects matter - AU- Canon pairing – Edward kidnaps Bella to use as a toy. The Cullen's attitudes different from canon – lots of lemony goodness, or badness depending upon your mindset. Some bondage, ok lots of bondage...

“Everyone has labels attached to them that they acquire over a lifetime…mother, daughter, wife, lover, friend, co-worker.  I happen to have all of those labels attached to me, plus one in particular that I’m not happy about…widow.  I have a daughter who never met her father, and parents who try to help me out but drive me crazy, along with a father-in-law who I take care of in the absence of his son.  Along with the label of “widow” came another label that I’m not happy about and it’s one I assigned to myself…crazy.  The reason I’m crazy is because every night in my dreams, I talk to my dead husband as if he was still alive.  I was perfectly content to live with those labels until someone showed up in my life that caused me to add another label to my seemingly never ending list…screwed. –Bella Black

AH/OOC.  Canon couples, eventually.  This is a story of a woman trying to deal with a devastating loss, so there will be sadness, but there will be humor and there will be love.  There’s foul language, eventual lemons, and it’s told in Bella’s POV.  It’s rated NC-17 for a reason.  It’s a love story at its heart, but it’s not an easy one.

Torn between a woman he loves, and the woman he has, but can never love, Edward comes to a fork in the road; which path will he choose? "The road to hell is paved with good intentions; "I m already going to hell, I might as well do it right!"* Drabblesc Fic* ExB

My brother, Emmett, saw the Craigslist ad, but I was the one who found the deal of a liftime. A blank DVD case never looked so good, or, after meeting its owner, held so much promise before. AH, ExB.

Bella and Edward have a history - one which Bella wishes she could forget. Edward re-enters her life but is not the boy she once knew. Will Bella be able to keep their relationship strictly professional? Does Edward want it to stay professional? What are they hiding from each other?

'The liberties he assumes with my body should enrage me, anger me beyond my own sanity. But it's just not that simple.' Encounters born of need. Consequences neither saw coming. Guard your hearts. Not the ExB you're used to. 

The doctors at this busy, New York hospital all have the same goals; saving lives, setting the on-call rooms on fire, and maybe, falling in love? Grey's Anatomy concept with Twilight character twist. Canon Couples. Rated: M - Romance/Humor - Bella/Edward

If someone gave you three wishes, would you use them? That's the question Bella Swan, practical psychology major, has to decide when her grandmother presents her with a story that she can't believe, and a blue sapphire ring that she's always coveted. If you could go to any time in your future would you make the wish?

AU-Human. Cannon Couples. OOC. Not angsty, but a few tissue moments in places. Language, Lemons (of course...you know me). It's different than anything else I've written. Interested in a little magic?

What happens when the man you've loved for 6 years starts to change right before your eyes? Bella is forced to question her heart when the black sheep of the family returns. In the end, will she put her trust in the right person?

When thirteen year old Edward Cullen met sixteen year old Isabella Swan she became his "Older-Woman-Secret-Crush." Over the next ten years their lives drifted apart only to have Fate bring them back together again and again. Now at ages 26 and 23 they are reunited in Forks. Bella is preparing to marry the wrong man...in Edward's eyes. Bella is headed to the altar, and Edward is running out of time... Can he convince her that there is another choice? Maybe Fate will intervene just one more time.

Told through flashbacks from both BPOV and EPOV. Lemons later because it would just be sooooo inapropriate at their beginning! Humor, romance, angst and suspense...because I love it all!

It has been four years since Edward left Bella in New Moon.  There were no werewolves and Jacob was never more than Bella's friend.  Bella has just graduated from college when Edward accidently crosses her path and finds himself being drawn back into Bella's life.  But Bella is not the same teenager he knew. She is a grown woman with a very grown up lifestyle.  This tells the story of how Edward, realizing he can't live without the love of his existence, and with the help of all of the Cullens, endeavors to win her back.  There are some laughs along the way.  The story is EPOV and rated NC-17 for sexual language and content. 

Bella Swan hasn't seen her boys, Emmett, Jasper, and Edward Cullen, in over thirteen years. Just when they find each other again, an outside threat nearly tears them apart. B/E, A/J,R/EM. NC-17 for lemons and language.

Edward Cullen, enigmatic, flirtatious, and career focused, 30 year old General surgeon, moves from NYC to the sleepy town of Port Jervis, which is a small town in upstate NY, to join his father's practice, after residency. Bella Swan, shy and independent, 23 year old surgical technologist, has lived in Port Jervis all her life. Same stuff different day, is her usual mantra. How will the arrival of the new Doctor in town change things?

This is a Edward/Bella story, which is all human, with canon couples. The story, which is centered around a hospital, is not your typical medical based drama. It takes place in the operating room, where two people from two different sides of the surgical spectrum meet. There is not only romance and drama. There will be Angst and a crap load of humor too. Plus this is rated M for language and future lemons. Please enjoy! FYI this is my first Fanfic and is not Beta'd. So I apologize a head of time for any grammatical errors that there may be. The first few chapters are short, but hold on tight, for they do get longer. This story might just surprise you. I love it and hope you all do too.  Please leave a review. Let me know what you all think.

Turning to Edward, I felt a magnetic pull. His eyes alone wrenching me forward. Stopping myself, a foot away from him, he lightly touched the bruises that adourned my jaw and kissed my forehead, I then closed the distance, latching my arms around him. He embraced me and I buried my head into his chest. Holding me tightly to him, I had finally found the comfort that I have craved since last night.

This was when I just knew, I had fallen in love with Edward Cullen.
