I took an antique in for appraisal, only to find a much rarer treasure.  I met Bella Swan on Antiques Roadshow, and PBS would never want for funds again. Canon Couples, Vamps/Humans.

Credit goes to forthelongestday for the incredibly lovely banner.

After a terrible shipwreck in the Mediterranean Sea, Isabella Swan, marquise de Courville, her two best friends and her loyal servants are rescued, but only to become slaves and serve the Volturi brothers, three men with very dark desires. All human. Domward.

Bella, a girl with sardonic wit and a freshly printed Masters degree, finds work with the Cullen Group, being, what she deems, an overpaid secretary who finds inventors and designers worthy of some funding.

Work should be dull, and would be had she not made one of her trademark, clearly well thought out decisions: she started sleeping with her employeer's son, who is one of her bosses himself, days after meeting him.

Classy Bella, really classy.

She deems him an odd and spoiled rich kid [he is on an insane liquid diet, he has two penthouse apartments for the reason of "just because," as far as she can tell, his sweat tastes like magic (okay she concedes that here, she might be the weird one,)and he comes in to work in suits worth more than her car that are ruined from his runs in Central Park.]

Weirder than all of this, he seems to want a actual relationship with her.

BANNER BY THE INCREDIBLE READERGOOF!!!

Bella needed to change it up. Moving to Savannah for a year after graduating from UGA seemed like a good plan. However, bills needed to be paid, and money was tight. Unfortunately, her playboy boss, Edward, doesn’t make her nights easy. After reconnecting with old friends, a pattern of miscommunication about engagements and one night stands, and a stalker dead set on keeping the pair apart, Bella and Edward find themselves thrown together in a whirlwind of events that will shape both of their lives in ways they never imagined. It's gonna get hot in the South!

Set in Savannah, Georgia. OOC, AU-AH. Canon couples. Lots of lemons...it's rated NC-17 for a reason.  Some violence, though not much.  The devil went down to Georgia...you wanna go?
