Stay by FictionFreak95
Sometimes a blast from your past is exactly what you need to ignite your future. AH, BxE.

Humbug by iamvican
"If I could work my will, every idiot who goes about with 'Merry Christmas' on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding." Yeah, Dickens kind of had a point.

Leaping by counselor
She has a cabin on the beach for three weeks. He has a three-storied Victorian built by his grandfather. They meet and decide to leap to the last day so they don't waste time. Then they will work their way backwards to 'hello' and unravel the attraction that gives them the courage...to leap.

Seventh and Pine by iambeagle
Eating food, drinking beer, and watching football are acceptable ways to spend your Thanksgiving Day. Wooing your niece's insanely attractive babysitter, however, is not. EPOV

Hatchet by PrettyKittyArtist
Edward Cullen rules Forks. He does what he wants, when he wants. What happens when he meets his match and she's got a lesson or two for him to learn?

The Man in the Long Black Coat by CrackedFic
A confident man with a dark secret arrives in town, ready to make it his new playplace. But when he runs into a teenage girl with a secret of her own, his confidence is shaken, and his life may never be the same again.

Changing My Course by twilover76
Sparks fly when two strangers collide in the dark. Will Edward star in Bella's future, or will the politics of her life be too much for him to handle? AH/M

Highline by EKSmith
"I needed this trip. Rose needed this trip. For me it was closure - a way to keep a memory alive. For her it was empowerment - a way to prove to herself just how truly strong she could be." Set in the Canadian Rockies. A WitFit story. AH, BPOV, Canon Pairings

XOXO

Barefoot in Texas by planetblue
I watch her jumping, prancing, her hands empty but taking pictures. Her feet bare on the hot Texas earth. Everything in my life that was planned to a T just whirled away in a ruffled skirt. 

These Vacant Bones by struckatthesky
His darkness, the same darkness in me, was right there in his eyes. No one else notices the shadows that make toothy smiles uncomfortable. They only see brightness. Edward's light is as dull as mine, but in worlds like ours, that dimness is the center of our universe. (AH, M, ExB) 

Roar Like a Lion by counselor
1936, Edward and Jasper work as loggers. They work hard and play harder. Bella and Jacob come to the camp to open the school. Problem is the unmarried men have a great time running off the teachers. When Edward sees Bella a roar starts to build inside. She's everything he can't stand. And he's pretty despicable. Trouble. 

The Life Aquatic by coldplaywhore
Life happens when you least expect it, and puts you on a course that you never planned, into a future you never even imagined that you wanted. This is the story of girl meets boy, meets boy... aka, his son. Rated M

Complicated by LyricalKris
High school relationships are always more complicated than they should be. Usually, those complications are made up of the drama that is teenage life. Sometimes... it's really complicated. Edward and Bella were already there before the surprise of their young lives threw them into a life they weren't remotely prepared for.

Harkham's Case by Scarlettplay
AH, OOC. B/E. "If it's not Asperger's, then what is it?" Bella asked. Alice paused before answering, "We don't know what he has. He was the first documented case. For now, he's called Harkham's Case number one." Bella smiled as a tear leaked out. "Okay." But nothing was. This changed everything. Rated M for adult content even though it starts out in high school. 

The Gap by capitalab
Their first encounter is brief, minute, insignificant, forgettable. At least it should be. Edward and Bella live very different lives, but a chance encounter forces them to reexamine everything they thought they wanted.

XOXO

Symmetry by aftrnoondlight
Love comes slowly when it's the truest. A modern day romance designed and told by Edward.

Call Me Home by LyricalKris
Life wasn't easy in the early days of the wild west. There were them who settled the harsh land and them who wandered it restlessly. Edward Cullen was of the latter persuasion. He never had a home to rest his heavy heart. Ya reap what you sow, people get what they deserved, so how did a man who knew naught but wrong have something so good and pure handed to him?

Boundaries Undefined by Mylisssa
High school is a raging screaming battle that's mostly in her head. She won't be happy until she has him, but hell if she'll ever tell him. She sees only deception in his deepest truths,while he doesn't know the falsehoods of what he reads from her actions. Someone has to bend or the other will break. AH E/B

I Was Broken by Kismetian
After the worst possible thing imaginable led to the splitting up of Edward and Bella Cullen, they both had to try and move on. Staying in limbo was too hard, and any future had to be better than this, surely? But has Bella made the wrong choice and taken a path to more despair? Only time will tell. As always, this will end as all my stories here do but it will take a while. AH.

Just a Number by LyricalKris
Numbers are often invisible obstacles. For Edward, a significant age difference between him and Bella dictates the confines of their relationship. Can Bella teach him that sometimes a number is just a number?

Bringing Home Bella by counselor
1872 brothers Edward and Jasper return from the war to rebuild the farm. Edward has a son, eighteen. The three bachelors work sun up and down. Edward visits Forks twice a year for supplies and to scratch an itch with a woman there. When he finds her sick he makes a snap decision to take her home. He has no idea who she really is. And how lonely they are at home. Trouble.

Losing It by JandMsMommy
Edward is losing it... in more ways than one. A story about two people who should never have gotten involved. Already completed. Will update weekly.

Glass House by Livie79
Edward and Bella had it all, but one night changed everything. How will they survive when it all comes crashing down? Love, lies, loss...life. This is that story.

Jasper's Girl by punkfarie
Between the loss of one life and the beginning of another, something grows between friends.

Lost Half by LyricalKris
Even though she kept her feet on the ground, Bella always wanted to believe in the magic of true love. Edward could have taught her that kind of love existed. Too bad he showed up too late. Can you still find your soul mate when your soul has been completely shattered?

A Love So Broken by mafaldac
A story about a love broken by life. By lies and betrayal. By accidents and stupidity. A story about one boy and one girl hitting the bottom and climbing their way back up. ExB/AH Written based on WitFit prompts beginning July 17, 2012.

OPERATION: Break the Dawn by katinki
An experimental weapon, one of the most lethal chemicals ever created, has been stolen. Its final destination is unknown, but there's no doubt the powerful faction behind the theft is intent on one thing: War. But they didn't count on a fight. A team of Marines, led by Capt. Edward Cullen and accompanied by Spec. Dr. Isabella Swan, isn't about to let the world go up in flames. AH.

XOXO

Honest Liar by aWhiteBlankPage
Bella once told me that there was nothing braver than a flower growing through a crack in the sidewalk. I laughed because she was always giving feelings to things that don't feel. If she was standing next to me, I'd tuck the dandelion behind her ear. Or she'd blow on it and make a wish. A hundred wishes. Or maybe just one.

I was so excited when Jen told me she was writing something new. I adored Pocket Change, and am already in love with this one, too.

The writing is gorgeous, the subject matter gritty, the angst high. It is everything I love in a fic and more. I find the hole in the mangled gate that leads to the freeway underpass. The pillars are covered in chipped paint. This town's failing attempt to beautify corruption. I can remember laughing at the cement covered in yellow sunflowers when they were first painted. Laughing because the homeless who sleep here at night don't care about cement flowers. My wife thought they were beautiful. We were just married. It wasn't the first time I realized that we don't see the world with the same eyes.

Honest Liar is a story about more than just addicition. It is about love, and struggle; losing and gaining moments that slip too fast through your fingers or linger stubbornly like rain.

I'm lucky enough to preread this story, so I know a little of what's to come, and in all honestly, I can say you are not going to want to miss out on this one!

Melt by ineedyoursway
An old soul, a hard past, and a very, very small town.

This is one of my favourite stories right now. I adore it.

ineedyoursway has the ability to mix reality with originality in just a short amount of words. Her writing style continues to blow me away, as does her storytelling qualities and characterizations.

Thursday.


I open the blinds.


It's getting darker as we draw deeper into winter. The trees seem to move closer together, an optical illusion, almost as though they huddle for warmth. Even the air gets colder, though not cold enough to snow.


There is no moon, no sun.


The sky is a thick porridge of clouds, threatening rain.


And, well, I open the blinds.


The light across the way is already on. There is only one car in the driveway. Angela always arrives an hour before her first class, anyway.


He's not in the window.


But, he will be.


I'm so interested to see where this story goes. There is a lot to uncover, with it only being a short way in, and with the characters only just hitting the surface with their respective connections, it's not one to be missed!


Wild Child by FluffyLiz
Just months away from inheriting a fortune and the family business, 17 year old orphan, Bella, is out of control – a wild child with a platinum card and a killer bod. Can Edward, as her legal guardian and CEO of Swan Publishing, rein her in and prevent her from ruining everything he's worked for? AH. Rated M for a reason.

Caught Looking by Marvar
Sometimes it's easier to live your life for someone else.  To ignore your mundane days and sleep through your lonely nights.  And then one day, it's not enough.  A story about finding love when you're not even looking. You just get caught.

Catch My Breath by tanglingshadows
Once upon a time, a quirky woman barreled into a soft-spoken man's life and turned it upside down. Not that he complained about it...

Pinky Promises by PrettyKittyArtist
A girl that tries to follow the rules. A boy that has none. What happens when the rules just don't make sense anymore? Fictionista Workshops WitFits July 2012

Dodge and Burn by abstract way
He assumed Isabella Swan was crazy, yet that very fact had intrigued him. He hadn't dealt with a compelling person, sane or crazy in quite a while. She just seemed ripe with possibilities to be anything but mundane.

Dear Veronica by cosmogirl7481
1994 was the year that The Cranberries lingered on our radios and Jordan Catalano was still the hottest boy we could imagine. But it was also the year that Bella Swan decided to keep a diary. A record of her actions. A place to share her thoughts.

In The Waves by Jadalulu
A little something about a girl in love with the edge of her world. Daily updates based on June 2012 Fictionista Workshop Witfit prompts. ExB

We Are Young by MyLifeandHis
Destiny doesn't do home visits. I can sit and chit chat with Bella, flirting with her on my balcony all I want to, but am I actually going for it?

Popular by dariachenowith

Not me. That's who this girl is. She is not me. And for the first time, Edward wants someone who is not me. The tequila sits at the bottom of my stomach and begins to grow tentacles. I am tequila brave.

Happiness Defined by muggleinlove

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7907272/1/Happiness_Defined

After the death of her parents, Bella moves in with her aunt Esme and her family. Edward is Carlisle's brother who is starting his life over in Forks after a bitter divorce. Can the two make it despite outside obstacles?


Review by SusanQ


It’s been over a year since we’ve had a new story from Muggleinlove and this one is off to a great start! Bella is a 17 year old who just lost her parents in a car accident. Edward is in his late 20s and just moved to Forks after a bitter divorce. They’ve both come to stay with Carlisle and Esme and the attraction to each other is immediate.


"Welcome to Forks," he replied returning a half smile. Our eye contact lasted a little longer than usual before I broke away biting my lip nervously.


…I could still feel his eyes on me as I started to eat, but I avoided looking his way focusing instead on my food.


Edward and Bella both have a lot they’re dealing with and they share a lot of common interests. The pair meets to talk each evening and despite their difference in age, have formed a nice bond. It’s all very innocent until Edward hears Bella talking to her friends about her feelings for him.


"I've tried to stay away," he said his fingers softly caressing mine. "But I can't."


Then don't," I answered…


Get in on this story while it’s still new. Muggleinlove doesn’t disappoint.

Happy reading! XOXO


A Soft Place to Land by btwnthestacks

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7775714/1/A_Soft_Place_to_Land

Single father Edward Cullen and his daughter are looking for a soft place to land. In an attempt to help her, he turns to a program at the local library. While two furry friends help his child find her confidence, their owner will mend his broken heart.


Close Your Eyes by CaraNo

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7799137/1/Close_Your_Eyes

Bella barely remembers her godparents, but after losing her mom and dad, she's shipped off to rainy Washington to live with the Cullens for her final semester in high school. On the outside, the Cullens are perfect. Behind closed doors is another matter.


The Veil by belladonnacullen

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7784269/1/The_Veil

You always have the choice between life and death... until you don't. There is poetry at the beginning and end of our journey, but it's what you make of the interim that counts. BxE, rated M, canon parings.


I love belladonnacullen’s storytelling ability. I think that’s what draws me in to her fics, and ‘The Veil’ is no exception. Also, the writing here is blunt and beautiful; every word has its purpose. I’m still not sure what to expect either, which I love. The story is shrouded in mystery and there are little red herrings everywhere: Is the story AH or AU? Is Bella dying or not dying?


I love that nothing is obvious. It keeps readers interested and guessing, and tangles you up in its web.


Nighttime, in Edward's arms, his breath in my hair. "You are my life now," he whispers.

I wrap my limbs tighter. I don't want space between us. I need his hands to make me come alive.


I need him to light these dark times I have away.


"I'll love you forever," he breathes as he rolls a nipple between rough finger pads.


There is no forever. Not for me.


"No forever tonight," I insist.


He sighs.


"Just now," I request climbing astride. There's no lingerie tonight. I want skin on skin, slipping against satin sheets. Men in this position don't often argue. Edward is no different. His hands grip my hips, pressing our bodies together where it counts. Forward, up, down, we both groan as he fits inside.


I slide; he pumps. I press thighs, he grabs my ass.


"Come here," he demands.


I fall forward and his lips catch mine. He sets the pace. His biceps flex as he rocks me forward. Faster, harder… I sweat, I tingle. He tugs my hair; I arch my back.


His lips close over my breast.


Eternity is just a kiss away.


Death and love are heavily featured and explored in this story, both beautiful despite the pain that lingers in both. ‘The Veil’ is gorgeously told, and addictive, and will have you asking yourself questions after reading—really make you think.


So if you haven’t read this yet, get your thinking cap on and get consumed.


Head Over Feet by iambeagle

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7829578/1/Head_Over_Feet

It's simple, really. A story about two best friends realizing they're head over feet in love.


Review by Jaime Arkin


Anyone who knows me, knows I dig the fluff... I swoon over it! I love good banter just as much as a good lemon and with Head Over Feet iambeagle does not disappoint.


Bella and Edward have been friends and neighbors for years never single at the same time they've built a solid friendship. Through the chapters there are hints that Edward has wanted more... wants more now, but Bella seems a bit oblivious. Or, maybe she's just afraid of taking that step and messing up a perfect friendship. Either way I love the characters iambeagle has created in this and I just adore the relationship she's built between these two.


There is the sweet...


I let out an unattractive laugh. "Whatever. Don't lie. You were always Team Pete."His brows furrowed. "No, I wasn't."


"Oh my God!" I shoved his shoulder. "Yes, you were!"


"No." He rubbed his shoulder. "I was always Team Whatever Makes Bella Happy."


and the funny...


"I mean, you don't want to take someone like that home to meet your parents."


"I don't?" he questioned, setting his chopsticks on the edge of his plate. "Who should I take home to meet my parents, Bella?"


"I don't know, but not someone like that."


"You keep saying 'someone like that'. What do you mean?"


"You know, like," I cupped my hands to hover over my breasts, "Chesty and...so forward with what she wants." The hostess looked our way again. I realized my hands were still placed in front of my chest, so I quickly picked up my glass.


And I'm holding my breath for the lemony stuff - because I know it's going to be just as incredible as the rest of this sweet story.


Go now... seriously. iambeagle is 8 chapters in and it's quickly moved into place on my 'must drop everything to read' list!


High Fidelity by IReen H

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7771737/1/High_Fidelity

Edward is an unfeeling bastard. Bella gets caught up in his games. Language and lots of it. Lemons eventually. It's a slow burn, slow and painful. Mature. Lots of random pop culture references. AH, AU, ExB.


Like Crazy by willyoupleasebequiet

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7779095/1/Like_Crazy

They say that there are three certainties in life: birth, death & taxes. A fourth certainty in Edward & Bella's life is their friendship...okay, five if you include Edward's fixation on seeing her boobs. Inspired by WhatsMyNomDePlume's "Best I Ever Had"


Cutlass by Tkegl

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7792629/1/Cutlass
