I so missed this story. As always, nice chapter. I can't wait until Bella and Jasper take of in the romance on the century. She deserves it like no one else.

Funny line:
“Sure it does. You just have to twist your brain into a pretzel and cross your eyes to see it.”
Man that is a mean look if he looked like he ate kittens and puppies for breakfast. LOL
Oop! A shotgun wedding, huh? LOL
Loving JPOV.
That song is perfect for them. Glad that Jasper made a move!

Your story pulled a lot of heart strings of mine since I began it. Emmett is such a crazy person but honestly? The way he killed Edward was just agonizing and terrible to read!
I LOVE the way your tale is going. It's brilliant! I bet the douche mofo is ticked after losing his so called "win" prize. For the record, I KNEW exactly when Alice made eyes at James it was a J/B! Then Char appearance further proved it. LOVE HER! Anyway, so far I think James truly won my heart. No matter how short their interaction was...but truly? I think it's bc of him Bells was able to run away.
I got chills when Bella cried for Charlie/Edward and the cupboard opened etc, I guess people never leave do they? Especially the love one
Love this bittersweet tale. I feel the pain ... for Edward/Bella/Charlie/unborn baby.
Author's Response:
Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. We haven't heard the last of James or Emmett just yet. We still have a ways to go for Bella's happy ending.
This started as a one shot for Beyond the Pale contest and won 3rd place. Its kind of obvious it would be Bella/Jasper since Edward is dead and Emmett's the killer. Jasper is the only one left.

I am so happy to see your update I could scream! Thank you! Especially with all you've been going through. Please know that both you and of course your Mom will be in my prayers and remain there.
I love the fact that Jasper is opening up to Bella and she is starting to trust him. Something tells me that Jasper can more than deal with anything Emmett dishes up - in spades! I love the world you have created here and the characters in it.
Whenever you update, trust me, I'll be here waiting for it with baited breath! Please take care!
Author's Response:
Thanks for sticking with me thru slow updates. I know it's aggrivating to wait, so please know I appreciate my readers! We haven't heard the last from Emmett yet and all country boys know how to deal up a good old fashioned ass whooping. lol!

wow im liking the story already hope u update soon. does ement ever find out who help her esape? why did james help her escape? does james ome out of this alive? I beleive James is under cover agent. I like ties is going to be a Jasper/Bella but i have to say though i thought it might be a James/Bella fiction anyways hope u update soon :)
Author's Response:
Thanks for reading! I'm glad you're enjoying the story. Please check out Creating a Mate as well. It's vamp and E/B. In answer to your questions, yes we'll hear more from Emmett soon as well as learning more about James later. I'm glad you like the idea of Jasper/Bella for this one, I thought it would be fun. I promise never to abandon this story, I just update slow due to real life commitments keep me running almost non-stop so hang with me. I should have an update in a couple of weeks for this. We're moving our youngest back to college this weekend so that will free up a little of my time to write.
Date: 04 May 2013 9:23 PM Title: Chapter 17
I totally adore this story, despite or because of its deeply disturbing beginning. I also totally adore Jasper and I sincerely hope that you can find it in yourself tocontinue this.
Author's Response:
I'm glad you like this story. I know I'm slow to update. Real life has been keeping me hoping now for a long while and we were just thrown for another loop this past week. Trust me when I say this story will get finished. I write CAM for my daughter so that story has my commitment for her. This story is my guilty pleasure so I'll finish it for me. I'm just glad everyone is along with me for the ride.

Forget divorcing Emmett. He needs to be pushing up thorns. No daisies from his grave.
Author's Response:
I agree, or better yet just build a compost pile above his grave. Bella is still thinking in simplistic terms. She's only now finding out just how truly evil he is.
Date: 21 Apr 2013 3:43 AM Title: Chapter 17
Glad that Bella knows everything about Emmett. I do not think that Bella could have stopped Emmett from making her his wife. Even if Bella was thinkng straight after Edward died. I still think that Emmett would have gone after Bella until he got her. And with that maybe alot of other people would have died too. She is still going to have a hard life ahead of her if Emmett's family is a controlling and deadly as Peter makes them out to be. If I were Peter I would be worried about me family being so close to Bella.
Author's Response:
The only reassurance Peter has right now about his own family's safety is that Charlotte and Bella wisely kept their friendship a secret. No one is aware of their tie. Charlotte also gave Bella her SUV to drive when she left Chicago. James also gave her advice on how to disappear. Emmett has no clue where she is or who helped her leave him. That won't last...
Date: 20 Apr 2013 5:57 PM Title: Chapter 17
Goodness, Emmett just keeps getting worse and worse. Stay safe Peter, it looks like Emmett will do anything to keep Bella. Bella stay strong, and do everything in your power to become the woman you want to be.
Author's Response:
Yes he does. Bella is surrounded by good people now who will help her heal...but don't count Emmett out just yet.

Poor B. Hard to hear all that I'm sure.
Author's Response:
The hits just keep coming for her. How much harder is it knowing your abuser also murdered those you love.
Date: 20 Apr 2013 3:19 AM Title: Chapter 17
Wonderful. Bella is opening up again and reaching out for life tentatively. And Jasper seems to be her key. His very prescence is so real to her that he seems to ground her. Now she is able, with Peter's help, to hear and deal with the truth. Hopefully, she will stay at the ranch. If she fears for anyone in her life because of Emmett, she just might try to take off in an effort to keep them safe.
Lovin' every word! Thank you!
Author's Response:
Thank you for your wonderful review. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. Bella and Jasper need to actually communicate with each other instead of assuming how the other feels. Neither wants to upset the other and all their doing is making the other feel even worse.

Author's Response:
I'm glad you like it. I live in a small town in Texas so I know a few cowboys personally. My Jasper is a combination of the best parts of each of them.

You're welcome. I'm glad you liked it.

So happy to read your update! This story has such heart! I know what you mean about having less time. My own daughter is a sophomore in college - she lives at home. I swear I have less time now than when she was in high school!
Jasper here is a true character! He feels seriously and yet won't take a step closer to Bella. His sense of honor is marvelous and it takes a ribbing from his brother-in-law to get him moving. I love it! He is the solid guy Bella truly needs to let her believe in men and life again. Thanks for all your hard work. I'm looking forward to more!
Author's Response:
I don't know if it holds true in your house, but I feel like I can't ask for as much help from my daughter when she comes home to visit as I expected from her in high school. Even over Christmas when she didn't have any studying to do, I still didn't get much help and she always wanted to spend the weekends shopping or going to movies with me. I'm certainly not going to turn down any opportunity that she picks me to spend time with over friends.lol!
I live in a small town in Texas and know several 'cowboys'. My Jasper is based on some of the best parts of all of them...along with the stubborn mulehead that seems to be a large part of every one of them as well.

this is going to be a slooooow burn isn't it. She is going to be so skittish and he has a little chip on his shoulder.
Author's Response:
Well if he'd pull his head out of his ass and not make her feel like he hates her, he might stand a better chance. What would you think if every time you walked into a room someone left? It's not so much a chip on his shoulder as it is that he's just to stubborn and blind to see beyond his own nose. I promise not to drag out their song & dance.

I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. Unfortunately I don't have a posting schedule. I keep trying, but real life gets in the way.

Loved the update/recap;. It was a good way to handle coming back to the story. Your Jasper is a great character. All m-a-n but very sweet. Have to say that I love that Charlotte was yelling at him too. LOL Can't say that I blame her.
Can't wait to meet Maria Whitlock and read what she has to say about everything.
Welcome back!

Author's Response:
I'm glad you liked it. It seemed a good way to get back into it and to show what kind of man Jasper is. Like any well raised southern man, he's quick to temper, doesn't stop to think before he opens his mouth, but a heart of gold.

wow jasper I can see why your so harsh but my goodness
i am glad char was able to get ahold of you and bella is staying the one night. my heart was breaking and was in fear if bella was sent away and if all the light and hope in her would be gone. i am hoping bella gets her wits about her and is able to heal and figure out what her next step should be. she still has so far to go
love it
Author's Response:
I'm glad you liked it. It always helps to be able to get inside someone's head to see why they act the way they do. Jasper is protective of his family, but doesn't always think before he acts...typical of most men. lol!
Now to see if Bella will stay for more than one night and give this cowboy a chance to prove he's not an ass.

I didn't even think of that when I named his horse. I was thinking Dr Pepper (it's a big deal at Baylor University where my daughter is going this year).

I promise the story isn't on hiatus or abandoned. My oldest daughter got married in Dec and 2 weeks after our middle daughter announced her engagement. Her wedding is this weekend. Right after that we move our youngest off to college. My summer has been a juggle of wedding and dorm shopping. As soon as it's over (and I have my empty nest meltdown) I'll be able to focus on writing again.

you realy know how to make a girl desperate waiting for the next chapter, hope it wont be too long a wait, keep up the good work
Author's Response:
RL is kicking my butt right now so writing is slower than a snail's pace. One daughter heading off to college and another getting married (within 2 weeks of the other) is sucking the life out of my summer. I have been working on the chapter as time allows and am hoping to get it up by next week.
I'm glad you're enjoying it. This one will be Jasper's pov. ;)

Nothing wrong with a Jasper/Bella story and I am so totally Team Edward! But I am not obtuse in that I cannot enjoy another good pairing and this story ROCKS. LOL
I love all that "ma'am" - ing that Jasper is doing! *sigh* I am a sucker for a good ole southern boy!

I love your writing, becoming a fan with the perfect wife . I didn't want to like it, but I soon found out I couldn't get enough. I am a married mother of 3 boys and would never condone them treating a girl like some of these guys do, but I love your stories just the same. I have hung in with story and have to admit I get giddy when I see your update. Please don' t stop! I Want to see how this ends.
Author's Response:
I promise not to stop. I love writing ff as much as I do writing my own novels. I appreciate my fans who stick with me thru the dark parts of my stories and slow updates.
I'm hoping to get the next chapter up by mid-May along with the next chapter for CAM by next weekend. RL is about to get out of control again with our youngest daughter graduating high school and all the end of year stuff, getting her off to college and our middle daughter's wedding in August. I'm also working on 2 novels for release next year.

Brilliant idea having Jasper react harshly when Bella arrives. It takes her reaction to his words and volume for him to realize who she really is. Trusting Jasper is in many ways Bella's first step on a road to recovery. It is a true leap of faith. Thou also give the reader a true sense of Jasper here. He's tough, protective, but a true gentleman inside. He hates that he frightened Bella. She could have been met calmly, easily,and gently but you did so-o much better! Kudos!!
Author's Response:
Thanks! I'm so glad you liked Jasper's introduction. Having a "polite meeting over tea" just didn't fit for the kind of man Bella is going to need. She needs someone who is willing to protect her.
Plus it just felt more real. First impressions aren't always the best.

Oh, I love a good J/B story!
Very nice image of him on the horse...yeah. Can't wait to see how things unfold in this story. And I'm so very happy that she was able to get away from Emmett.
Author's Response:
I thought it made a great first impression. Did you catch the misdirection with the horse description? Just a little fun. ;)

I started reading this story, and could not stop, she is amazing!
I never thought I'd like a story where Edward died, a story in which Emmett is the villain, but I love this story so much.
Sorry my English, I am Brazilian, I just wanted to say how much I like your fics.
Kisses.
Author's Response:
I'm glad you like the story. I try to do the unexpected so readers don't feel like they're reading the same story over and over.

Absolutely. I am a diehard E/B fan but your story is so diobolically evil (Emmett murdering Edward the way he did & took such pleasure in it), that I couldn't stop reading.
Having Jasper not related to Rosalie & having darker hair helps.
Really good story - looking forward to more but I have to tell you, the way you wrote the first love between Edward & Bella was beautiful.
Author's Response:
My daughter says she still gets chills when she thinks about Emmett telling Edward he was going to kill him and then whistling after.
There are some great pics of Jackson Rathbone with dark hair (natural) that are just downright hawt! I had to use that as my muse instead of blonde from the movies (that changed with every one).

oh you throw me for a loop on the good guy/bad guy situation from the very beginning, and I was still hoping Edward would come out of hiding lol. Ok, though, Jasper standing tall in the saddle w/ the sun shining behind him has all the makings of a really good hero. Then he blows it by being a dick to her lmao. Lets see how this works out for them...
Thanks for good read
Vicki
Author's Response:
most men stick their foot in their mouth on a regular basis and screw things up. I figured I'd let Jasper get his idiocy on the table right off so he can spend the rest of the story making up for it and proving he's a hero. ;)

Great chapter
Bella has a lot of heeling to do inside and outside
Author's Response:
Yes she does and a peaceful setting with a hawt cowboy may be just what the doctor ordered. After Jasper makes up for being an ass.
Date: 13 Apr 2012 5:45 AM Title: Chapter 13
wow not a great first meeting jasper
i am glad bella is staying
god knows if em gets ahold of her again it could be the last time
her days are numbered with him. now that she has run off i'd say he would need to make an example of her.
Author's Response:
Emmett won't give up without a fight...but he has to find her first.

Great chapter! Happy for Jasper to be the good guy in this one, though I do love me some Emmett;)
Author's Response:
I'll owe Emmett a hero story after this is over.

Thrilled she's finally met up w/ Jasper. Loved the chapter looking forward to more.
