The Collection: A Twilight/The Selection Crossover

For those of you who have read The Selection Series, you will recognize the world of this story and some of the character types, but most of the plot will blend elements of the two series with original ideas, so it won't simply be The Selection plot with Edward and Bella. There will be things that will completely take you by surprise, I hope, and keep you entertained.

Also, it felt right to post this the day before my 9th anniversary in fanfic. Thank you to all my readers, new and old, and my team, past and present, for sticking with me on this journey.

His bills were piling up and he was afraid he was going to lose his livelihood if something didn’t turn around. Over the radio, he heard about a stranded driver, stuck on the back road. Edward pulled on his winter coat, gloves and started his truck, driving to the location.

A small sports car was stuck in a ditch, almost completely covered with snow. A beautiful woman, wearing heels and a fur coat was shivering outside her car.
