Bella, a struggling student at Arizona State, returns to her dorm room one afternoon to find her boyfriend in bed with her roommate. Unable to look at either of them, she moves out of her dorm, seeking refuge at her parents' place until she can find another room to move to.

Since it’s halfway through the semester, there are no other rooms available, so she takes to the classifieds. Just how good is the view being advertised? 

AH - Bella/Edward

Romance/Humor

Rated NC-17 for language, adult situations, and later, lemons . . . because this is fanfiction after all.

Bella Swan is a writer that is on a trip of a lifetime. Edward Cullen is a famous actor, whose life is a blur of film-sets, hotels and screaming fans. A destined encounter and a battle of mind over matter erupt amongst sensual music and a shared longing.

Bella and Mike wed four years ago and their marriage hasn't exactly been the picture of bliss. A carefully guarded secret surfaces, destroying an already fragile Bella. Everything she knew was a lie, everything she wanted for her life, wiped out with the click of a mouse. An E x B story.

Warning: There is mention of past sexual assault, crappy childhoods, an even crappier marriage, and some very prevalent social issues (that I’m not going to mention here, because it would defeat the purpose of reading the story).

Excerpt: I looked at the clock again, 5:44.  Jesus Christ, did time stand still? Those fourteen minutes felt like fourteen hours.  As the moments ticked by, my palms began to sweat and a nervous pressure mounted in my chest. It's not the end of the world Bella; just the end of your marriage...and everything you knew. God, how was I going to do this? People up and left their spouses on a daily basis and never looked back. Of course, how many of them were under these same circumstances, I wondered.  How many women were faced with leaving the man they loved because he'd woven a lie so hurtful? When it finally surfaced, did it kill them?

Out of great tragedy springs great love.  

Esme is dying.  She wants her only child, Edward, to be settled before she goes and she's running out of time.  Will Bella be the answer to Esme's prayers?

Story is ExB.

Bella Swan opens a bookstore in Port Angeles, which happens to be located right next to the music store owned by a young man named Edward Cullen. Watch as they meet and form a relationship.

Bella and Edward have been pen pals (the traditional kind, pen and paper stuff) for over a decade, but they never met for reasons even they didn’t know.

They move fast, and a wedding is set for a mere four months after they get engaged. Bella invites Edward to the wedding, wanting to finally meet her longtime friend, and when things go sour the night of the rehearsal dinner, Bella, in her shock, ends up in Edward’s arms. And this is all just the tip of the iceberg for these two…

Rated NC-17 for mature sexual content. Little to no bad language.

I wanted his hands on me, on every part of my body. I wanted to feel him pressed up against me, his skin touching mine. I wanted our passionate kisses to escalate until I was panting and trembling, on the precipice until I was begging for more. And yet, it still wouldn't be enough to squelch the desire I felt for him in that small space of time. 

I didn't know what was worse: waiting on the edge of oblivion or the sense of it never being enough...

Rated for language and graphic lemons...with yummy firemen...
