Summary:  I was sent packin' after the fiasco that was Bella's 18th Birthday. Edward almost drained her, but I got the blame! I was accused of pushing my bloodlust onto him. Oh, they all believed him, all except two! (Bella/Jasper)

Bella Swan, they shy freshman at the Univ of Wash, catches his eye.  He fights to stay away, but can he? Love can heal many wounds if you give it a chance.  Travel with Edward to see if he gives into temptation while dealing with his tainted past.
