As a Seattle institution the Volterra Academy of Dance received national acclaim when the dance prodigy signed on, but is that the only purpose when the Cullens hired Ms. Swan or did they have hopes that she could teach more than just the students something? Edward hasn't placed competitively since his partner left him high and dry three years ago. That was when he came to teach ballroom at his family's school. He's convinced he's happy, spreading the love for dance through the younger generation, but that all changed when he spied a brown haired stranger. He saw the way she moved at the club and now he can't get her out of his head. He tells himself that it's best that he doesn't know who she is.

Set in Savannah, Georgia. OOC, AU-AH. Canon couples. Lots of lemons...it's rated NC-17 for a reason.  Some violence, though not much.  The devil went down to Georgia...you wanna go?

Eighteen year old Bella Swan has moved to the small Western town of Spoons Valley to meet up with her older brother, Emmet, after their parents' deaths.  She always figured that the Wild West that she read about would be like the descriptions in Harper's Weekly, but she didn't realize just how wild and dangerous things would get once she arrived.

AH.  Canon Couples.

Raised by her single father, Isabella Swan grew up in the land of men.  Their favorite pastime when she was younger was to spend the night at the local dirt track, feeling the energy of the cars as they fought for position.  Was it any wonder that eventually she would end up on the track herself?  

Having paid her dues, Isabella (Izzy) Swan has made it to the big leagues, officially racing for a franchise in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.  Can she hold her ground against a track full of men who want to see her fail, especially her teammate Cocky Edward Cullen?

After fifteen year-old Bella Swan and her older brother Emmett lose their parents in a tragic accident, Bella's life takes a horrific turn for the worse. Once Emmett discovers the secret she's been keeping, he moves them from Phoenix to Forks to live with their Godparents Carlisle and Esme Cullen, and their children, Edward and Alice.

Can a move to a new town help heal Bella, who has deemed herself ruined and unfixable? Can the love of a new family break through the scars of her past?
