Photographer Bella Swan loves everything about living in Hawaii. The beach, the surf, the warmth. Everything but the two weeks when Professional Beach Volleyball takes over. Now, she's been cast with the joy of capturing every moment with her camera. Only, a tall, auburn haired player isn't making it easy for her to stay professional. Cannon Couples. UA and MA

In the blink of an eye, your world can change. You can experience the greatest happiness … or succumb to the world’s worst pain, losing someone that had no reason to die …

Edward Cullen, a decorated fireman, after losing a woman in a deadly apartment fire, left his life and family in Seattle, trying to escape the ghost of the beautiful woman, the concert mistress of Seattle Symphony. He stayed away from Seattle, living in Boston, working as an arson investigator until his mother called him, informing him that she had cancer. Without a second thought, Edward moved home to help his family.

Dr. Isabella Swan, a renowned oncologist, specializing in women’s cancers, went through the paces of life. Her mother, an ovarian cancer survivor, was her impetus to become a doctor. However, she was closed-off and had been for many years … since the death of her twin sister, Angela, in an apartment fire. Bella focused on her job, working to forget the empty pain of losing her soul mate. Even eight years after her death, Bella was profoundly broken because of it. She never let anyone in … Until … a handsome, sexy man and a son of one of her patients … Edward Cullen …

Everything in her mind told her it was wrong, but in the blink of an eye, your world can change. You can experience the greatest happiness. Your life can come back to life, especially when you find your new soul mate … the Fire of your Soul.

Some secrets will damage your reputation.  Others will ruin your social life.  But then there are secrets that will change the way the world looks at you, now and forever.  What would Edward be willing to do to keep such a secret?  And who will pay the price?

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?

Earthquakes so rarely occur in the Pacific Northwest that the phenomenon causes the members of the Quileute tribe to investigate. They never would have expected to find her. She is stubborn, wild, and fiercely independent, and she willfully goes against everything they try to teach her. Especially when it comes to staying away from vampires. AU/Supernatural

Going on horrible dates was something that Bella always did well at. Nothing made her happier then to see the back of a man as he fled to get away from her. She was having so much fun until she ended up on a date with the most chauvinistic man in New York. How could one date have gone so wrong? Now her little tricks maybe the reason she is forced to stay with a man she loathes.    

THANK YOU TO IPSITA CHAUDHURI FOR HER AMAZING BANNER!

A failed marriage and long divorce left Edward with a lot on his hands. Moving his kids closer to his family in New York was the fresh start he needed so that his family could thrive. Not knowing how he would juggle work and caring for his kids, he jumped at the chance to hire his brother's nanny to care for his own kids. But the moment Bella walked into his house everything changed. She started out as the nanny, but she quickly became everything he wanted.  

Bella's POV of this story is posted as Everything I Needed.

Edward Cullen is a fallen angel, living among humans. He’s dark, snarky, tattooed and a total badass. However, he still has his wings and angelic powers because the ‘powers that be’ believe that he is capable of redemption, despite being cast out of heaven. His exile was due to the fact that he was interacting with an unknown evil that tempted him over sixty years ago. Because of his mistake, he’s resigned to live out his immortal existence as a bitter angel, caught in limbo.

Isabella Swan, a human, is in the wrong place at the wrong time. In her innocence, she manages to worm her way into his heart, bringing him back into the light and out of the darkness.

This is what nightmares are made of. There used to be six of us… Now I’m alone. Will someone save me from the cusp of death? I don’t know, but when the darkness comes, I hope I'm strong enough to find out. **Slow to update**  

Bella Swan was dreading going back to her ten year high school reunion, over Valentine’s Day Weekend, for Hillsborough High School. Her time in high school in Tampa, Florida was not high on her list of pleasant experiences. She was quiet, unassuming and secretly in love with Edward Cullen. It was that unrequited love that forced her to move away to Seattle, as far from Tampa as possible. He never knew she existed. Or so she thought.

Edward was looking forward to his high school reunion because he was anxious to see the one that got away. Bella Swan was the quiet girl who never really interacted with anyone, but Edward saw that she was something special. But as ruler of the school, he had certain expectations to maintain. It was one of his biggest regrets. His life would have been easier if he had followed his heart. Now, he was a divorced father of two. His ex-wife, Tanya, who was his high school girlfriend, left him for a younger man and abandoned her children.

Will Bella be happy to see Edward or will she stay hidden amongst her classmates? Will Edward finally break the mold that was expected of him and open up his heart to the beautiful and shy Bella Swan? Will he be able to win back the one that got away?

Bella left Edward and everything she knew in Forks ten years ago. She knew he would never leave the MC, but circumstances drew her far away to accomplish her dreams. When Bella returns under somewhat mysterious circumstances, Forks will never be the same. AH. Tattward/Bikerward. Think Twilight meets Sons of Anarchy.

**Rec'd on The Lemonade Stand- go check out more recs from the TLS ladies!!**

She was the leader of her people. 

He was a gruff, by-the-book star ship captain. 

An interstellar war, negotiations for a peace treaty gone wrong and a taboo relationship between two species. 

Captain Edward Cullen was in charge of the starship, Volvo. He, along with his crew, were given a mission to deliver Empress Nirabelle of the Cygnarian people to the nearby planet of Lapus, to negotiate a treaty between their two worlds. For over a millennia, they have been fighting a vicious battle. For what? They don’t even know. It’s ingrained in their minds and their history. 

The Empress is to meet with the Crown Prince of Lapus, Jakob. The Volvo is transporting her and her envoy, Maralice to the planet. There are strict rules in place for the Empress’s transport. She is to not have any contact with any males on the ship, per the cultural norms of Cygnarian society. The trip should take as little time as possible and if no headway has been made within one day of being in orbit, Captain Cullen is to transport the Empress from the planet’s surface. 

However, something goes terribly wrong on Lapus. One communication to the Volvo and a brief face-to-face conversation forever changes the future of the Empress and Captain Cullen. 

Will they survive this threat or are the Star Crossed lovers doomed before they even have a chance?

Isabella Swan, thirty-six, is reeling from her recent divorce from the man she thought she would be spending her forever. Her mind and heart shattered, Bella purchases a home, but in need of repair near Seattle. Bella hires two men, Edward and Garrett to complete the repairs of her new home. Will these men renovate Bella's new home or is more in store? AU/AH Full Summary inside.

Bella's parents never split up, Renee never followed her dreams and escaped Forks. Thus, Bella has grown up in a constantly overcast small town with a police chief father and a mother who's checked out emotionally.  She's still the straight A student whose never met a boy who peaked her interest but she did find other ways to escape her suffocating life. 

Edward and the Cullens move back to Forks as they did previous to the first novel, only Bella is already there.  Edward is still a vampire with an Edwardian man's sensibilities, and he's still drawn inexorably to Bella, despite her pasttimes.

The accident prone waitress runs in to a jerk. Little does she realize how her life will end up changing, hopefully for the better. The jerk she runs into isn’t so much of as a jerk as he is arrogant and dominant… But Bella doesn’t know that.

One time, no matter how hot or sexy was not enough. We both knew it. So he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. For the next year my body would belong to Edward R Cullen; the billionaire, the genius, the sex addict and the married man.  How did I get here and why don't I want to leave?
