Title: Two Stepping
Author: Jewels64
Rating: M
Genre: Romance/Humor
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Bella is a reporter sent to interview Jasper, a champion horse trainer. She meets Edward who is a horse breeder and a British Duke. Sparks fly. HEA? Romance/humor/lemon. AU.

Why Read? I loved this because of the way everyone was written, Jewls64 has taken the gang and wrote them in a way that's unique to the story but still encompasses everything we love about them. Bella's outgoing and not going to back down attitude is a perfect change of pace from a lot of stories out there. A longer fan fic, but its worth it to see how the plot twists and turns and how everything happens.

Genre: --
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Edward Cullen, an Olympic swimming star, goes to Beijing with winning gold medals on his mind, but is distracted by the beautiful but clumsy reporter he meets on his way.
Why Read? At first I was worried about the "cheesyness factor" of this story, it just seemed to cookie cutter for me. But i'm happy to say i was so wrong. It's happy and sweet but its not over done or unrealistic. Bethaboo writes an enchanting tale of love in uncommon circumstances during a stressful time. How can they cope with the press? The competition? And the stress of being at the Olympics? You'll have to read to find out!




Title: Off Limits

Rating: M
Genre: Humor/Romance
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Womanizing Edward has been told to stay away from his band's new lead singer, Bella. But with their instant attraction and obvious chemistry, how can he adhere to that? OOC. AU-H. Rated M for naughty humor, intensely bad behavior, language, and sexing.

Why Read? Edward's your typical fanfic man whore, but we all know there is more then meets the eye. Struggling with who he is and what he wants in life, Edward just seems to be stuck. That is until the band hires Bella, and force Edward not to screw this up for them. Starting off on the wrong foot and it doesn't get much better, Edward and Bella don't know what to make of each other. This story is about growth and change, love and so much more. All with an amazing amount of humor and fun.

Why Read? This one captured my interest because it really didn't give away a lot of information. When I started reading it was really interesting story, snarky characters, an in depth plot, and a few good twists and turns that you don't see coming. If you want something good to read, look no further.

Summary: Two network news anchors. One desk. In a race to get the story, love might become the headline - if they don't kill each other first. AU/AH Canon Couples, smart people, particle physics, and tap dancing
Why Read? One of the funniest fan fic’s I’ve ever read. Its got all the snarky, sassy, sarcastic humor that I love so very much. Filled with great characters, lots of sexual tension and action all set to a great plot line. Right off the bat, WriteOnTime wastes no time getting into the lives of the characters and straight to the action. I'd write more but the story is unfinished so i don't know where its going to end up, but where ever that may be, this story will be amazing.

Summary: Her glass is half empty. His is half full. Together they may just cause an over abundance of…liquids. Seattle's #1 anchor and her new camera man may be perfect for each other; if only the truth could be caught on film. ExB – AH - M

Why Read? This has got to be one of the funniest stories i've read in a long time. 107yearoldvirgin's Edward and Bella have got to be the mosts awkward dysfunctional pair of people i've ever read about. Somehow they find themselves in the most ridiculous situations every chapter, i almost cried i was laughing so hard. If you need a good read, or just a good laugh - check this out!

Title: Going Down?

Summary: Bella is hired as a photographer to do a photo feature on the cocky, playboy tennis pro Edward Cullen. Bella is determined to resist his charms, but Edward can't seem to leave her alone. Does love really mean nothing in tennis? Slightly OOC, AH. Rated M


Why read? I've heard about this story for a while, and finally got around to reading it. I'm so glad I did!! Right from chapter one, i was hooked. Though i shouldn't have been surprised since I really love MandyLeigh87 (author of Best Served Cold). We have Edward Cullen, the cocky manwhore of a tennis player meets Bella photographer. Edward doesn't do relationships and Bella doesn't like to open herself up because she's worried about being hurt. They keep mixing and coming together, quite the volatile couple, if that's what they are. 

Excerpt chapter 1:

"Average?" He tilted his head and let a sly grin sneak onto his face.

"Average. And to be completely honest, I'm not interested in a one night stand with someone who probably doesn't even have enough fingers and toes to count the number of people he's slept with. So I'm going to save myself the trouble and the STDs and excuse myself to continue celebrating…on my own." I sighed and barely made it two steps before I stumbled over my own feet and crashed to the floor.

"Fuck me!" I yelled, trying to stand up again.

"Well I tried but you wouldn't let me," the man said as he helped me up onto my feet. "What are you celebrating anyway?"

Summary: With only twenty-six days left of school, second grade teacher Bella is supposed to be running her classroom ABC Countdown. However, all she can think about is her sexy co-worker Edward, and the much naughtier version of the ABC Countdown he inspires.

Why Read? Excerpt: "

Twenty-six days left of school. That's when the teachers in the primary grades began our ABC countdown: each day we did a fun activity starting with a letter in the alphabet. Today was "A" and my second graders were doing Arts and Crafts.

But me? All I could think about was Mr. Cullen's ass."

This is a funny, hot story about Bella who is hopelessly in love with another teacher Edward Cullen, who has been that unattainable man since when they first meet he was married. Now she just has to lust at a distance, and because she is a welcome of all things ridiculous she decides to make her own "ABC countdown" and list all the things she loves about/wants to do to Edward. Hope no one finds it :D

Summary: Endless scripts to read, a tyrant boss to tolerate, and a rather lackluster personal life. It was a good thing Bella Swan's office provided the perfect view of the building's hotshot lawyer. Now if only they'd share more than a glance each day. E/B

Summary:  Bella wanted Mr. Perfect, but he didn't want her. When Mr. Imperfect comes along, can she look close enough to see just who is more perfect for her? A story about falling in love with the imperfections. AH - Rated M for lemons later.

Why Read? I’d recommend this story because it’s a realistic look on love and life. Bella’s got herself in a complicated situation that I’m sure many readers will be able to empathize with on one level or another. This story isn’t all happy and amazing, but it’s better because of that. xrxfanixrx is an amazing author and you won’t be sorry you read her story.

Complete/Last Update: 9-18-11
Summary: A/U All human. Edward is a cold career Doctor who's personal life is non existent. Bella is the fun and flighty new attending who turns his world upside down. Edward struggles with accepting change...can he?

Why Read? This might be one of my mo’s for fanfiction – cold Edward, epic Bella = perfect couple. But this is definitely not just that simple. Ancora Imparo 83 throws a good amount of curves into her plot line to keep you guessing and keeping the intrigue with the story, their lives and their relationship new and fresh.

Summary: Sleeping her way to the top was never Isabella's intention, but in an act of desperation, she agrees to a deal she never knew it would change her life. All Human. Drabble-ish.

Why Read? Was a little weary at first but glad I gave it a shot, again I wont’ say a lot but its not what you’d expect (in a good way) and very well written.



Title: Try
Author: shellshock81
Rating: M
Genre: Romance/Drama
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Bella moves to the other side of the world, leaving everything she's ever known behind, including a broken heart. Edward, star player of one of New Zealand's best Super15 rugby teams is so smitten over his new Pilates trainer, he can't stop himself from going after her. Will they find a way to make it work on and off the field?

Why Read? One of the sweetest and funniest stories I’ve read in a long time. Great characters, really taken all the best parts of cannon and made them her own. A quicker read, but worth reading and then rereading and rereading and rereading!

Genre: Drama/Romance
Complete/Last Update: 4-23-13
Summary: 22 year-old Bella Swan works for Edward Cullen, the 39 year-old VP at Providence Medical Center in Portland. After years of fighting the attraction, a tryst in the break room leads to a complicated relationship. Trying not to get caught by the prying eyes of their entire workplace, they're forced to hide their relationship and deal with his ex-wife and his 16 year-old daughter.

Why Read? It’s a great story. Discordia81 places our favorite characters Edward and Bella in a crazy situation but doesn’t make them crazy. They are pretty level headed and realistic about the story (or as realistic as things get in fanfiction). I loved that since this story could have gone in so many bad directions, but it stays true to characters and to how people would really act, for the most part.



Title: Life Support
Author: shadowed by passion
Rating: M
Genre: Romance/Friendship
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Isabella Swan is an attorney at Cullen, Volturi and Denali who broke her laptop. Edward Masen works tech support. What will happen when these two get together? Can he fix her laptop? Can she fix him and his laundry list of issues? M just incase

Why Read? Wasn’t sure what to think of this one but it was recommended by a friend and I thought it couldn’t hurt to give it a go. Really glad I chose to do that, it’s a light and fun story a bit angsty but more about their characters/development and no so much about the relationship so I don’t really think of it that much.
