This particular blog is Edward and Bella in the "real world", which means they are no longer in college, all of these stories have to do with what happens in life next. A lot of my other blog's have showcased this particular time of life (Cops and Robbers, Lights Camera Action, Workplace Rendezvous, etc) But these are the stories that don't fit into those categories and really can't fit into one with enough to make a specialized blog for them. So its just all those stories that don't go anywhere else, but are post-college aged Edward/Bella.

Summary: Um. Hi. I don’t really know how to say this, but I have your kids with me, and I was thinking maybe you would like them back. So yeah… call me.
Why Read? I remember when i first came across this story i was so intrigued by the summary given, i mean how the heck does someone leave that kind of voice mail?? So I started to read and I'm really glad I did. I wasn't sure at first if i was going to continue, since Edward/Bella have kids when they meet, and that's something I tend to avoid in fanfic, since I feel like they are hard to write about and therefore end up being too much like babies no matter what age, or too wise for their years, but just a turn off over all. But I was amazing to find that I loved Kambria Rain's writing of the kids in the story, it was beyond perfect, they added so much to the story. Then it also had me hooked as Edward and Bella both had snarky, sarcastic witty humor that made every conversation better. Its my kind of humor so reading about it is the best way to get me laughing. It has a rough start to the story, maybe a little over the top? Its hard to describe, but as you read more you really feel like KR gets into an amazing 'groove' with the story and writing the characters. So make sure you keep reading this story, its beyond worth it. (this story is also highly recommended by my friend MC, we actually read it separately then both rec'd it to each other) And now I'm actually going to have to go reread this now that I've spent so much time talking about it...

Why Read? This story had me hooked from chapter 1, which when i finished reading i called MC up and made her read it because it was that good. Its one of the funniest stories i've ever read, every chapter had me in stitches :) The plot line is great, as Edward and Bella's 'relationship' doesn't really start out in a good place, and the fall out of it is great. Reading through as a ridiculously charming Edward tries to get a thoroughly stubborn Bella to see reason is quite fun. With a lot of witty banter, great characters, pranks galore this story is one you'll want to read over and over again (i know i do).

Why Read? I liked this story because of the interesting way it was written, you go back and forth between different people's perspectives, but it's never confusing (which happens a lot). It starts out with everyone having their awn assumptions and stubborn idea's and continues down a path of misunderstandings and alice trying to fix everything. It's sweet, without being too much but there is also a good amount of drama and angst especially near the end. Well written characters, jennlynnfs really added to them to make them special in their own way.

Why Read? I enjoyed this story because of the adult world they were in. It was one of the first stories I read once getting into fanfic, so always holds a special place. I also liked this because who doesn't like a good love triangle? Bella's faced with a tough choice as two gorgeous men stumble into her life. I also like that Jake isn't villainised in the story, because not a huge fan must admit but he's not a bad guy deep down, he's just a bit annoying. There's also a lot of good drama and suspense in this story, that you'll never see coming. It takes a lot of interesting turns and isn't just your run of the mill love story.

Why Read? Wasn't sure I was going to like this one, but so many people had it as a favorite, had to give it a try. Turns out it's a lot more then i was expecting. I know I loved You've Got Mail but I don't think I've seen Pillow Talk so can't saw anything on that comparison, but it was a pretty unique idea to me. Both Bella and Edward are written as such interesting characters, the growth they both go through is quite something to read about. Lots of smut, but its more than just that, even when it doesn't seem like it. Takes a few unforeseen turns and as its still incomplete i'm trying to be patient as i follow the story and excited to see how it ends.

Summary: Bella and Edward were high school sweethearts until Edward breaks it off and leaves for college. It has taken Bella four years to put herself back together. Her new life and possible happiness are threatened when a new tenant moves into the apartment across the hall from her.
Why Read? I recommend this fanfic because it has an interesting plot line and really expresses emotions well because of the great writing. This story has a lot of angst, but really if the "love of your life" broke up with you and then disappeared for 4 years, only to move into the apartment across the hall, wouldn't that bring about an insane range of emotions? As the story goes to try and figure out what to do with this situation, mostly how Bella wants to move forward, be friends? Forgive and forget? Beat the crap out of him? It's all up in the air. Along with this main story line there's also a good amount of drama and some suspense. Great read

Why Read? I love this story because it surrounds Bella's faith, she's devoted and dealing with life, and Edward hasn't gone to church since he was a young boy - due to a lot of horrible things happening to him. As they meet and try to handle each other it's an interesting plot. Edward learning to grow and heal, while respecting Bella, and Bella trying to figure how Edward fits in the long run and how to deal with all the new feelings she's feeling. The story is sweet and fun, with lots of action, drama and some suspense. The writing's interesting because it switches POVs sometimes, which gives you a more in depth perspective to how everyone's feeling and what's going on. I'm excited to keep reading and find out how everything ends up.

Why read? this is a new story, only 4 chapters so far but its great. I started reading and couldn't stop, greatly saddened by the fact that there wasn't more to read. I really love jaxon22 (author of Help Wanted), such a great writing style, really gets into the characters and plot. Bella told her dad she wanted to help people, and feeling like she hasn't really done all she could she started teaching at a prison, where Edward (and a lot of the other crew) comes in. He's a punk with more issue's then you'd know, and well we don't know much about him just that he's got issue's. Interactions just started, since Jaxon 22 took some time with back story and introduction (which was really nice/helpful to understand) but from what's there so far it's all sparks and fire. I'd say, go read what's there and put this story on alert, you won't regret it. I'd also like to say congrats to jaxon 22, with this story just having put out it's 7th chapter (6/4) it's received 1,030+ reviews, which honestly is an insane amount, so i'm not alone in thinking that this is one of the best fanfiction's i've read so far. *side note, almost stuck this blog into the "fallen stars" blog but i thought it might do better here* (also her Emmett may just be one of my favorites written, he's amazing)

Edward left alone with a son and didn't know what to do, and Bella who had high hopes for her future finds herself with nothing (as in sulking in her apartment eating ice cream and watching reruns of old tv shows) I love SydneyAlice's Bella, she's a strong and independent character, who doesn't take people's crap.

Edward works in Chicago and isn't home a lot, actually Bella's never meet him in all the years working for them. But that changes when he suddenly shows up and asks for Bella's help. The prenup they signed said that any party to cheat, would lose any right to the money and wouldn't have a say in the divorce, and Edward's sure Tanya's not being faithful.

Why Read? First off let me just say i'm excited to be recommending another story by GreenEyedGirl17 (the first was Illegal Contact, its in the Education blog - go read it!!) This story has a lot of great elements in it, its got a lot of depth, character development, angst and romance all in perfect amounts. I love that she stays true to her characters, nothing they do or say goes against what you'd expect, and that doesn't always happen in stories. Its a true testament to her writing ability. Bella (22, turning 23), is dealing with life when she meets Edward (33) who contacts her because he's looking for a house in the area and Emmett (Bella's brother and Edward long time friend) said she'd probably be able to help him. They strike up a friendship that turns into more then they could have imagined.

So far we just have a few chapters of Bella, getting to know her life and her past with edward (a brief flashback or two) before Edward actually shows up in chapter 3, dropping a big bomb per say on the plot. Excited and new, just a few chapters long which i always find exciting, you can comment more and following a story from the start is nice, makes them mean more - especially when they come to an end haha

Summary: Bella prefers the virtual to the actual, but feels herself being tugged from the safety of her online realm into the world of a rough edged Edward. This time she'll write her own story. Collab with twistedcoincidence AH/AU
Why Read? This one i've seen on every sight really, but i just never sat down to read it. Not sure why, just always something else, but after seeing like 3 people in a row telling me to go read this story, i gave in and went to see what everyone was talking about. I'm so glad that i did :) this is a heartwarming story about Bella, who lives her whole life through facebook because she doesn't feel she has a story worth telling. She keeps it safe and doesn't set outside her box and hates that about herself, then one day she makes a decision to go into a bar to see if the handsome man she saw would be there. Only to find that he actually owns the bar. She's awkward and stuttering through word vomit and after a fail attempt at well everything she runs out of the bar, only to leave a stunned Edward behind. He's content with his life and the way he's living it, until this mysterious funny brunettes comes walking in. Both their lives are flipped upside down, and neither knows exactly what to do about it. As they try to figure things out, there are bumps in the road but overall a good time.

Summary: When Bella's life takes an unexpected turn she's forced to find her estranged father, but not everything is as straight forward as it seems. Blood isn't always thicker than water. AU AH.
Why Read? This one is definitely not like the other stories i've read but i really do like it a lot. It starts out with Bella living with her grandma i believe since renee is a no show. She has her best friends Leah and Jake (dating) and Seth (a few years younger/in love with her). Then one day tragedy strikes and she has to go looking for her father, who she thought that no one knew who he was. Turns out they did, so once she shows up at his house why does everyone seem to know her? and why are they all being so mean? Really interesting plot and great characters. Just a little note, this is a Edward/Bella story and cannon couples in general thought it might not seem that way in the beginning. Starts out with Rose/Edward dating and Jasper and Bella in a friends with limited benefits situation (just like making out). There isn't a whole lot of Edward in the first 27 chapters but all the drama, and other characters make up for his lack of being there. Give it a try, I bet you'll like it.

Why Read? This story starts out and you feel for Bella, she does everything for everyone else, not living a life when she finds out she has terminal cancer. She decides that she's going to talk to Edward Mason, the mysterious "new guy in town". No one really knows anything about it, but there are rumors abound (none of them very good). She runs into an old school friend Alice, makes the first decision for herself and moves in with Alice until her lease ends. This throws her into a whole new life, "Hello." His voice was stunning, deep and sort of rough. "My name is Edward." as Bella struggles to deal with the fact that her life is ending before it begun, family who just doesn't understand and figuring out how she wants/how to get it. great story

Why Read? Honesttly, who wouldn’t want to see the twilight cast on a reality tv show? I mean I don’t want these types of reality tv shows, but I love reading about this one. xXTailoredDreamsXx’s created her own special personalities for each of our beloved twilight cast and really is having the time of her life writing about it.

Why Read? So I love the fact that this is set in a circus, really makes for a fun atmosphere to write about. Bella’s shy and a little naïve but she’s got a pretty good head on her shoulders, or would if she never ran into Edward, the main womanizer out there. But don’t underestimate either of them and though their characters might seem cliché, they really aren’t. Written in both E/B’s pov this story is just enough sweet and a good enough plot to keep you interesting, wanting more and even keeps you guessing at exactly how everything’s going to go down.

Why Read? I know there are a good amount of stories that sound like this one, but this is one you should be reading. I.ts sweet and funny, with a little spice in there as well. Its also not just one where there’s no development and they just jump each other right away without thinking about it. Definitely more of a complex plot then that!

Why Read? [I know this isn’t “real world” but
there’s really no good place to put this…] Honestly there’s not a lot I can
say but you’ve got to give this story a chance. Its confusing (good way), funny
and well written – which is all expected because its written by Savage7289 and

Why Read? Great story, and a new
plot line – or at least not like anything I’ve come across so far. Its just
enough light hearted story with a good mix of sadness and healing. Makes for
believable story and great characters. And just a side note i think this could have gone in my "fallen stars" blog post but i think because Bella is such a strong character throughout the story that it just doesn't feel right to place it there.

Why Read? Well I thought it was a
crazy plot bunny and well couldn’t help but be curious. It turns out that it
didn’t go where I was thinking, the characters didn’t act like I thought they
would which made it a very interesting read and one that keeps me on my toes.
Its romance, its drama and a little mystery thrown in there. Sometimes
characters drive me crazy but that’s the age gap and well you just need to
trust your authors and hang in there!
