That is terrible everything that Bella has been through and it is good that she wanted to tell Edward about it so that he knew about it.

Well Rosealie was surprised and the center of attention which is good and now I wonder what their wedding is going to be like and what kind of antics Emmett is going to pull at church.

Wow it is sad that Edward had to go through all of that before he even got to be around the fakeness that is sometimes hollywood.

It is a good thing that Bella is trying to move on with her life and if it is with Edward then good for her!

Wow it seems that there is never a dull moment there when Emmett is around!

Well I guess there is more to Edward than what others know about him.

His past has come back to haunt him.  That was such a happy chapter til then I love Bella ranting about his penis to funny.

I am not getting this he saw her?  He went out with her as in saw her. Or she was on the road and he SAW her. Or he had a dream and he saw her??  That is confusing.

They are getting close to marriage and all hell is breaking loose.

He is desperate because Bella may get mad and leave him??

YOU ARE SO MEAN.

If I didn't know better, I'd say you have it out for these two. ;)  It never even occured to me that this would happen.  I can't wait to read LRM and see the exchange between Edward and Meghan (if there was one).  I am a bit shocked that Em didn't pick up what was going on; however, if he was in "buying snacks for the road trip coma" I can understand why... hee hee.

On a totally different note... I am currently betaing two stories by babylou23.  It has been my priviledge to to do this and I thought you might be interested in checking them out. (O, who am I kidding?  I am totally wanting to pimp my girl out here!Ü) The stories are Speak and Please Remember Me, by babylou23 (here and on fanfiction.net also).  I actually fell into the beta position shortly after she started both because I was immediately intrigued and hooked.  Please Remember Me's Edward is angry, complicated, and lost- I love him; and Speak's Edward and Bella are nothing compared to Edward's son Anthony!   

Can't they catch a break? So glad she didn't freak out about the car.

Well seeing Meghan must have been a kick in the pants.  I know that he doesn't have feelings for her, but I bet is was a shock. Bella sure gets these crazy bouts of diarrhea of the mouth. She is going to go crazy for the next 60 days with Edward around all day and night. I can't believe Edward was saying Bella was driving too fast. This can't be the same Edward who has a Vanquish. Maybe she just wasn't paying attention. She does have a problem with daydreaming.

you deserve every award you are nominated for!

Poor boy.....so glad he has Bella to help. They are so right together!
Great chapter....can't wait for the updates!!

Author's Response:

that chapter was up and down and all over the place....ah well.  Thanks so much!

Thank you for sharing that chapter with us it made me smile update when you can....

This couple has been through hell and back and they both deserve some great loving time now together!!!!!!!!!!

This was an awesome chapter, one of many in one of my favourite stories. The best parts for me were Edward kissing her bruises, as well as the applause from Bella's classmates and the epiphany that caused her to have.  Well done!

*Stands up and applauds loudly*

Hoo-Rah!!

Well said, indeed. Loved it. Very inspiring. You rock!!

I am ready for a few chapters of fluff.  You have brought Bella so far.  From the broken girl to someone whose strength is admired not only by those who love her but by those who only know of her.  Please keep up the great work.

Great chapter, and ~1/2 way through I was wondering how it is that I'm crying reading this? {It's not that time of the month.}It always seems like a such a sweet light story about a movie star & young college girl that swept him of his feet & young college girl who was swept off her feet by the dashing movie star;D)  It seems like strange dichotomies ..the laughing about Emmett's shenanigans, the movie star drama and the serious tragedy of attempted rape & murder but you make it all work really well in this story. So it always throws me when your story gets really touching, but I love it.

So, now that I've reviewed for you, feel free to go right that next chapter! ha ha

No, really, thanks so much for writing, it's been a pleasure to read what you've written.

boy...you sure can write the emotions!   LOVED IT!

wow,     stunning chapter !!!!!!  love the graduation !!!!!!

I loved this chapter. I am so glad that Bella sees herself differently. She is a surrivor. She is strong. She is loved by many. She has a good life.

wow, that was GREAT!!

OMG I was literally biting my nails!  eesh!

I am so glad she had another epiphany :)

Wow, that was amazing!  I really loved it so much!  SO happy Bella is ok and even though, like Bella, I don't like that the ranger is dead, I am happy that she is safe now :)  I cannot wait to see what happens next :)

That was a beautiful chapter. You could feel the pain in Edwards words. Great job!

Author's Response:

thank you so much!

Wow.  That was intense.  I can't even imagine what this will do to everyone - mostly Edward, of course.  Gah.  Can't wait for the next update.

so glad Bella was able to keep her cool (finally).  Poor Charlie - to think that Bella was gone - even for a second.  love your writing!

ok...now you have me waiting to see what is going to happen and i cant wait to hear bella's thoughts...good chapter...

Enjoyed the chapter...glad she is found

These last two chapters were nerve wracking!! I can't wait for Edward to get to her!

Brilliant!

Wow, great chapter.   I cant wait to read it from E's POV.

Great job!  Very exciting!  Thanks for the quick update!

Oh wow, what a chapter!!! That was amazing, I was begining to think it was real. Please update soon, I can't wait to see Edwards pov

Wow, I never thought we would hear from the ranger again.  He wanted to give payback to Bella and Geri for ruining his career.  He did that to himself.

I am so proud of Bella for fighting back.  I thought at first she was going to just give up, but then she remembered everyone who loves and cares about her and found the will to fight.  I am thankful for the boots with heels that Rose gave her.  Heels can be very dangerous when used with enough force.  I am glad that Bella got into the fetal position on the floor boards when the car was crashing through the forest.  Again, I am so proud of her for fighting back.  I do not know if getting out of the car was the best decision, but at least she was able to find a place in the forest where she could call 911. 

Edward is going to flip his shit when he finds out exactly what happened.  I am sure that he is going to throw himself a pity party and blame himself for the incident.  He always blames himself, and 98 times out of 100 Bella is the one to blame.  I love Bella, but she really is very naive (sheltered).  I understand why she is the way she is, but can we get her to make smarter decisions?

Thank you for the update. I love how you write your cliffies.  You have them resolved in the next chapter unlike other authors who string it out over five chapters.

Thank goodness she's alive but I bet Edward will be upset with her.

She did exactly what I would have done.  I would have hicked him dead if I had to.  But why diid she not just follow the car trails out of the forest? There must have been a path that the tires made, especially in such a wet climate.  But I do suppose she had quite the head wound.  Will we get LRM next?  And how come I did not receive the update?  I found it by accident.

I guess my parents taught me to be rational during stress. My dad and my husband are both retired military. Learned from a young age to never go off half cocked. When my dad died in a plane crash, I was nineteen. I can handle details under stress.

Em you are way way way out of hand... don't get thrown out!!!

Natural Family Planning????  Is she for real?!!!!!!  I knew this was going to happen!  OME!!!  I just wonder who it is.  There has been no word that the killer is out of jail so maybe it is one of the others.  Watch it be someone like Alec.  Although I don't really think it is.  There has to help on the way.  She cannot be taken and miss graduation.  This will also be huge news.  I cannot wait for the next update.

BTW, I never did get my update for this chapter, I found it by looking for something else.  Is the update not working?

Great cliff at the end. Looking forward to what happens next

fine..i trust you but shit, edwards probably freaking right now and gah i so dont like cliffies...hurry i need an update

You know, she has been almost murdered is she really THIS DUMB?

SIGH?

Oh My Gosh! Why can't things ever go smoothly for these two? You're drivin me crazy I tell ya. 

Waiting Patiently Impatiently,

OH MIA MYA

OMG Please tell me you are going to update very soon. I am trying to trust you but  damn I am so afraid for Bella right now. Edward is going to freak!!! The fear you wrote in Bella and Emmetts words was amazing. I hope we finally get to see who has been stalking Bella.

i love it she drinks like a fish but finds nothing wrong with it but won't have sex!!

okay she is really starting to bother me... girl let it go and have fun with him... you are wasting sooo much time... i would have jumped him already too!!!

wow didn't expect tanya to be so gracious and honest... intersting.  glad they made up and thanks for making bella have some moxy and stand up for herself i love it!!!

Poor Bella - well at least we'll start to figure what's up with her stalker!!

knew it was coming thought it would be the park ranger but you let it build!  i was right about the baby thing too... let's see what happens now!!
