In Volterra, the Crown Prince chooses his future queen from the Collection. 35 young women from every province of the country, open to members of all castes, given the opportunity to be the newest chapter in the country's fairy tale. But Isabella Swan didn't want to be part of the Collection, all she wanted was to love a boy and have him love her in return. And Edward Masen was not that boy.

The Collection: A Twilight/The Selection Crossover

For those of you who have read The Selection Series, you will recognize the world of this story and some of the character types, but most of the plot will blend elements of the two series with original ideas, so it won't simply be The Selection plot with Edward and Bella. There will be things that will completely take you by surprise, I hope, and keep you entertained. This idea overtook me while reading the last book, which is the first time a series has done this since Twilight, so I wanted to play with it. Also, it felt right to post this the day before my 9th anniversary in fanfic. Thank you to all my readers, new and old, and my team, past and present, for sticking with me on this journey. 

Isabella Biers had it all. A loving husband, two adorable children and the dream job. One night, however, changed everything. Bella had a spinal stroke, paralyzing her from the waist down. Bella's husband tried to be there for her, but caring for a wife who was an invalid proved to be too much for him. He divorced his wife, unable to cope with her long recovery.

Despite being abandoned by her husband, Bella was determined to not let her disability define her. She wanted to walk again. Enter her physical therapist, Edward Cullen. With the perfect combination of humor, patience, stubbornness and love, can he help her in her endeavor in walking again? Will he open her heart after it was shattered by the man who vowed to be with her, in sickness and in health?

It all begins with A Single Step ...

Summary:  In a heartbeat, Edward's life changed. What was supposed to be the joyful, life-changing experience, the birth of their daughter, turned into a nightmare. The love of his life, lifeless on the delivery table, as he held his daughter in his arms. The gift of organ donation was always his wife's desire. Bella was in the critical care unit at John Hopkins, praying for a heart transplant. What happens when years later Edward moves back home to Baltimore and enrolls his daughter in a dance class? Will the beauty in pink tights capture his heart? But what happens when he learns her secret?

Summary:  Edward Cullen thought his life in the playroom was over, when his leg was amputated from the knee down due to an car accident. Could a submissive with her own ghosts be the one to show him that he is more than enough to take complete control of her body and her heart?

It has been a long time since I have written anything, so please be kind!
