Bella Swan is a writer that is on a trip of a lifetime. Edward Cullen is a famous actor and musician, whose life is a blur of film-sets, hotels and screaming fans. A destined encounter and a battle of mind over matter erupt amongst sensual music and a shared longing.

Bella Swan is a humble young girl determined to prove she's serious about making art. Edward Cullen is the pragmatic debonair foreigner, focused on his career and duties. On the surface, Bella and Edward may have nothing in common, until a chance encounter in a hotel hallway sparks a mysterious attraction and a deep need to keep the connection alive. Will true love prove strong enough to overcome the secrets and challenges that lay ahead? Or will they succumb to the pressure and expectations of the people that think they know best?

'The liberties he assumes with my body should enrage me, anger me beyond my own sanity. But it's just not that simple.' Encounters born of need. Consequences neither saw coming. Guard your hearts. Not the ExB you're used to. 

This is a Bella and who ever you want him to be story.

It was just a long weekend in Vegas, so how did eighteen year old high school senior Bella Swan end up married to thirty one year old movie exec, Edward Cullen? This is the story of their awkward life. 

Bella Swan works as a nurse at Cook County Hospital in the ER. She's older and desperate for love. It's hindered by her shy personality and plump body. Her father, whom she lives with, teases her relentlessly for being fat and single.

Edward Cullen, thirty-three, is hired as a doctor in the ER. He's getting over a divorce. He moved to Chicago to be closer to his family: sister, Rosalie, and brother, Jasper. Rosalie is younger than Edward by ten years and is struggling with an eating disorder brought on by a heinous rape of her ex-boyfriend. Jasper, twenty-seven, is finishing up his doctorate in history.

Bella is charmed by this new doctor in the ER. He's kind and thinks about his patients and maintains a friendly rapport with the nurses and orderlies. Edward is intrigued by the sad nurse who does her job efficiently but doesn't have a sparkle in her eyes.

Will she allow Dr. Cullen into her life or will she let her insecurities get in the way of her happiness. Perhaps, Dr. Feelgood can write her a prescription. A prescription for love...

I'm nothing but a monster fed with flaming fury and running with bloody hands. There is no hope left, until one harmless glance chances logic and binds two enemies together in a twist of fate. Can the escape from this hell be found in an irresistible dimpled grin? Or is this another dark, dirty trick of my own mind? A forbidden passion, heat, and intense anger—this is no fairytale.

thanks to teamalltwilight and le crepuscule for the awesome banners!

Bella meets a man who in one night leaves her body humming for more. What should she do when the next time she sees him, he is dropping off his daughter, begging her to keep her. With an odd sense of obligation, a person who never saw herself as a parent—is now moving across country with a child who thinks Bella is her mother.

Meet Isabella Marie Swan, a twenty year old, struggling college student with a bright future but a dark and painful past.

Meet Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, a convicted Mafioso serving time for his crimes.

Now join Isabella and Edward as actions, circumstances and consequences set them on a collision course. At the end of it all, will the pure and untainted Isabella survive the callous and seductive touch of a man no better than the Devil?

Bella is sick. She was sent to Dr. Cullen's clinic, where Carlisle specialized in treating rear blood disorders. She meets all the Cullens but forms a special bond with Edward. There's only one thing she wants for her 21st birthday. Will her wish come true? The Cullens are vampire hybrids, they eat and drink if they choose and do not sparkle in the sun.

A perfect cafe au lait was all it took for Hollywood's most eligible bachelor to fall in love with me...the coffee girl.

Her grandmother taught her to believe in fairy tales. She was told that one day her Prince Charming would come to save her. But after years of abuse, Bella has nearly given up all hope, until the day the Cullens moved to Forks. Twilight AU, mating connection story.

Detective Cullen has been married to his job for a very long time, and he doesn’t ever plan to change.  Bella Swan the overweight girl who gets used and tossed aside is his favorite waitress.  Can they make more out of this than friendship with benefits, or will she send him away when she decides she wants more?
