Bio:

stories/7939/images/3023603255_16b3a638ed.jpgI am a wife and working mother of three.  And I am a rabid Twilight fan.  I also love good wine, good friends and skin art.  Oh, and I live and breathe the music around me.  Currently, I love 100 Monkeys, Kings of Leon, Killers, Pink, Death Cab For Cutie, Van Morrison, Bruno Mars and Adele.  But like the weather where I live, just wait five minutes and it could change.


I discovered fan fiction by accident while looking through Twilight websites and have been addicted ever since.  My husband never complains about my hours of computer time because he always reaps the benefits in the end. ;)


Not only do I love to read a good piece of Twilight fiction, but I am working on several stories of my own. 


I had a most incredible opportunity to meet the one and only Peter Facinelli on October 23, 2010.  He was absolutley amazing and gracious and sexy as hell!  I got pictures and a new tattoo out of the deal so all in all it was one of the best weekends of my life!!!  Check out the link if you are so inclined.


http://www.breakingdawnmovie.org/awesome-fan-encounter-with-peter-facinelli/


 I had an even better experience meeting Jackson Rathbone at a 100 Monkeys concert on July 9, 2011.  What an absolutely amazing group of guys.  If you ever get the chance, I highly recomend you go and see them.  I am now a total Monkey Junkie and can not wait till they come my way again.  And yes, I also got Jackson to sign my leg and immediately had it made permanant the very next day.  Check out the link to read the whole story.

Poor Bella to have lost 4 very important years of her life.  I feel bad for Edward and Jasper because they can't even touch her.  It must be killing them after 6 months of her in a coma.

Hell yes that would be an awesome way to try and get my memory back!  I'd fack amnesia just for the chance to have a roll with Edward and Jasper (ok, and Alice too).  Excellent chapter.  I am so glad that she came home with them and is starting to find some familiarity in her life.

First off, excellent chapter! I love that Bella is remembering more and more of her life and I love Edward and Jasper's reactions everytime she has memories of them.

To answer your question, yes I think they should tell her about Alex and how it all came to be.  But I don't think they should tell her at the office.  She needs to be somewhere safe with them so it doesn't hit her too hard since in her mind Jacob had just attacked her.  It is all too fresh.

I loved this chapter!  It has been my favorite of SA.  I thought Bella's reaction to her parents was very realistic. 

I absolutely love how she declared her love for Alice, Jasper and Edward and how she explained that she may not remember loving them, but knows that she does now.  Perfect!

Okay, addressing the elephant in the room first...WTF?!?!?  What the hell is up with Jessica?  Is she trying to get a raise or something?  I didn't realize she batted for both teams.  Alice is going to give her a serious bitch slapping!

Baby names...hmmm, that is a tough one.  I am very curious to see what you come up with.  But please, for the love of God do not give that poor baby a blended name.  Of all the things that SM did with Twilight, that is the one thing I really hated was naming Renesemee.



Author's Response:

Thank you. I can assure you that the baby will not have a blended name. I agree with you on Reneseme;(

Yeah!!!  I am so glad that she remembers them!!!  I thought the fact that she had sex with Jasper in Edward's old room at Christmas with the WHOLE family downstairs was a little odd, but I can roll with it.  I wonder why she didn't drag Edward and Alice up with them?



Author's Response:

You have to remember that she remembered Alice and had quite a few flashes of her time with Edward but Jasper was pretty much nothing. I think that Bella and Jasper needed to reconnect one on one becasue it had been so hard on Jasper that Bella didn't remember them ever making love.

That was a sad chapter.  I can't believe they thought that Bella wanted to leave them.  I don't understand why she blames herself for missing all that time with them when she was in a coma.  It's not like she was choosing not to wake up.

I am so glad Bella broke that SOB's nose.  He deserved much worse.

Ok, so I was thinking about Bella's hip problem and the pregnancy.  If she doesn't heal properly and fast the extra weight of the baby could do some serious damage not to mention the delivery might be hindered if she isn't 100% recovered by then.  I know they are just fictional characters that you write a fun and fantastic story about, but I worry about them. LOL ;)

Is it just me or is Bella in the wrong business?  She should have been a match maker.  First Garrett and Kate, then Jessica and Eric and now Seth and Tanya.  The girl is on a roll.

I love the way you write Tanya's character.  She is always seen as the evil whore trying to steal Bella's man.  In this case she has a bit of a bitchy attitude, but she wears it well and she adds a nice little touch to the story.  Good job! ;)

Damn, that Bella is a smart cookie.  I wouldn't want her conspiring against me!  

Those are some tasty lemons you included in here.  I can't wait to read about the playroom.  And I loved how he set her up to fail while he fucked her on his desk so that he could "punish" her...very hot!!!

I love this story.  I love the fact that even though we kinda know how it ends up from the first chapter, there are so many details that you give us from the middle.

The scene at the cabin was incredible!!!  Edward is getting to be a very creative Dom.  Love it!!! ;)

I also like that Bella is the first person Emily calls when she needs a female to talk to.  She will probably jump for joy when Edward finally tells her the truth.

Holy hot sex in the movies AND in the shower AND on the boat!  The things you make these two do...I am jealous of your dirty mind! ;)

I am gald things worked out with the custody and now hopefully the divorce will be finalized and Tanya will drop off the face of the earth.

Loved the conversation with Charlie.  He plays a small but important role in this story.

Oh my word  there was a whole lotta happenings in that six months.  My favorite part had to be in the beginning when Edward told the kids about Bella.  I loved their reaction especially when Evan wanted to get rid of the mystery girlfriend cause he wanted him with Bella.  I also loved the scene in the park when Edward realized that Bella was what their family was missing.

I feel bad that Alice and Rose are behaving so terribly towards her.  I thought it was awesome how Edward ripped into them at the dinner party.

I love this story!  It is not only amazingly hot, but you are so creative with the ideas you put in here.  I love every word!

Oh crap!  Christmas was so nice and now we have to worry about Bella having a stalker?  I wonder if it was James.  I am glad that Edward  pulled the Dom card in regards to the new locks and security system.  You know, for a man who never even considered the lifestyle, he is a fantastic Dom to Bella.

The scene in his parents house was unbelievably kinky and hot!  And I love his tattoo!!!  That is too cool.  I think it was awesome that he admited that he couldn't get the thought of marrying her out of his head.  And I also thought it was awesome how he told Esme off.  I understand her need to protect her son, but he is of an age that she should be able to trust his good judgement (prior marriage aside).



Author's Response:

Bella was very right inher first assessment of him - that he already had most of the important traits that make a good Dom - especially wanting her safe.

I love that Edward has put his foot down with his mother.  She really needs a serious kick in the ass.

The cruise was a really cute idea.  I love that Evan wants Bella to be his mom.

The play party was very hot and Edward has admitted that he wants to marry her and have a baby with her...love it.

I am a little concerened about the stalker that Bella seems fairly oblivious about.  I hope someone stops him before it goes too far.

As always, excellent chapter!!!

If I haven't said it before, I will say it now...I LOVE THIS STORY!!!!!!!

Your writing is amazing.  You tell such a fantastic story with just enough detail to keep me informed without boring the snot out of me (as most professional writers do).  The lemons are beyond hot and the character developement is outstanding!

I loved when Bella came into the school board meeting with her posse.  It was awesome and I swear I could visualize the whole thing go down.  Yes, she is the submissive in this story, but she has such a powerful presence that she really blows me away.  I want to be this Bella, you know?

The scene in his home office was unbelievably hot and I think I may need to read that part again just so I know I didn't miss any details (that's my story and I'm sticking to it).

The way they care for each other, both as D&s as well as their vanilla relationship is amazing to read.  Their love and devotion to each other is breath taking.  With each chapter, I fall more and more in love with these two.

What a fantastic chapter!!!  I loved the surprise trip to England and all surprises Edward included.  The sex on the lamborghini was un believably mind blowing!!!  That is mental candy that I will be holding onto for a while.

The proposal was beautiful and the wedding was perfect.  I loved every word of it.

Excellent chapter!!!

I really kind of hate Esme.  The bitch needs to mind her business and stay out of E&B's.  I love that Edward layed down the law with her, and I think it was awesome that the kids sided with Bella over Esme.

I always figured James was the creepy stalker.  I am glad Bella kicked his ass!

That was totally hot the way Bella showed up at the school and they had SEX IN HIS OFFICE!!!  That was hot and dirty and all sorts of fuck-awesomness!!!

I can't wait to see what fun the going away party and the move to Chicago brings!

Holy shit!  Esme finally stopped holding her breath and stomping her foot like a toddler and actually called Bella?!?  I am so shocked, you could knock me over with a riding crop!

Speaking of toys...FUCK ME SIDEWAYS!  THAT PARTY WAS HOTTER THAN HADES!!!  OMG!  I loved the whole fucking thing!  I don't know where you come up with this stuff, but I would love to tap into your brain sometimes (I'll bet it is a god damned party up there).

Excellent chapter from start to finish!!!



Author's Response:

Another excellent chapter!  I have to say your description of the playroom does strange things to my girlie parts.  God, Edward is the perfect Dom.  He could spank me any day.

Loved the snowball war.  It was such a fantastic family moment that shows how much fun they all have together.  And I love how the kids are so protective of Bella.

I can't believe Esme was so dillusional that she invited Tanya and her mother to that lunch.  I really think if she doesn't show huge improvements that they really should cut ties.



Author's Response:

Thank you - Esme is in for an eye-opener

Reviewer: nickeyd26 Signed starstarstarstarstar
Date: 18 Oct 2010 Title: Chapter 16: The Fifth Year The Second Six Months

I always do a little happy dance when you update this story.  And this chapter did not disappoint.  Ugh, where to start?  Aro is a creapy bastard.  I loved how Edward put him in his place and inferred that maybe his mentor should be contacted...nice!  I also loved how he put the asshats in their place at the ball.  They weren't the brightest bulbs in the box. LOL.

Seriously, what the hell is up Esme's ass?  Even after learning everything she did in that last disasterous lunch, she still wants Edward to go with Tanya?!?  Why, cause she can control Tanya with money and she can't control Bella?  I agree that this story is best with Edward's POV, but I can't wait to see the outtake and find out what is ticking in that brain of hers and what was in the envelope and who she called.  She is gonna have a coronary when she finds out Bella is prego!

Speaking of, I loved how Bella buttered Edward up to tell him her change of heart about the baby.  To hell with the stomach; the way to a man's heart is about a foot lower. ;)

Ahh, the kink.  God I love the dirty things you do with these two.  The fucking machine with the vibrating butt plug...fucking classic!  And the scene in the bedroom with the wax...let's just say that a dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste and I plan to use all the impure thoughts you have just given me and put them to good use!

As always, excellent chapter!



Author's Response:

Thank you very much - I know how I want Esme's story to go but I don't know that it will make anyone have sympathy for her.

Oh snap!  The shit has really hit the fan in Esme's life hasn't it?  I love Carlisle and the fact that he refuses to even consider forgiving her until she has made things right with E&B.  It shows what kind of man he is.

I don't blame Esme for trying to hide her past, but Carlisle is right.  she should have told him as soon as Carmen reared her ugly head in her direction before the wedding.

As much as I LOVE Edward's POV, I am so glad you wrote this chapter because it explains so much!



Author's Response:

So many reviewers wanted to know what was in the envelope and why Esme was doing things I was worried I would running for cover if it wasn't explained.  Glad you liked it and thanks for reading - Beth

I think Edward is being very understanding and open to Esme and I really hope she appreciates it and has learned her lesson.  Bella is most definately his rock.  She is so incredible to even attempt to encourage him to make peace with his mom after all that she did to her.

Triplettes?!?  It has been so long since I read the 1st chapter of this that I can't remember if they were mentioned or not.  That is just too cool for words.  I love how involved Edward is with the pregnancy.  It is sad to think that he never had any of those experiences before.

Ahhh, pregnancy sex.  I loved when Bella attacked him in the middle of the night.  That was awesome.



Author's Response:

OMG!  That was so sweet!  I love the visual of the three older kids holding the babies!!!  I think the names are super cute, but they are going to regret making them all sound similar when they have to yell at them when they are older. LOL ;)

Bella sending the kids as interference for Edward's party was very funny.  And I love Bella's reaction to Heidi hitting on him.  I am surprised she didn't smack her with those wicked hormones corsing through her.

I am glad they are standing their ground with Esme.  I like the explanation that Edward gave Bella over why he didn't want Esme in their home.  It makes a lot of sense and it shows how protective he is over what is his.  He is the best husband and father.  How can you not love this Edward?

As always...excellent chapter!

I think I have missed the playroom almost as much as E&B!  That was an incredible way to get back to playtime!!!

Esme is certifiable!  WTF?!?  I am glad they have her on drugs cause obviously the therapy isn't enough.

Hopefully in the next chapter she will be a better, more stable Esme.  Oh!  With the ten year jump, maybe we will get to see Emily getting married?!?  That would be too cool!

Excellent chapter!!!

Oh girl, you have a true gift for smut and story all wrapped up in one.  There are some fan fics that are great stories and others that have lemons that would make you do dirty deeds.  You, my friend have incorporated both so well that it kills me to know this is near the end.

I love how you have given us a visual of how their lives have grown and flourished in such a beautiful way.  And even after being together for all this time, they are still so into each other.

The scene in his office was so freakin dirty...I loved it!  And even though I have read several scenes on motorcycles, yours was so unique and fucking hot...damn!  There are just not enough words.

I have loved every chapter of this story and I am going to miss it so much when it is through.

OMG!  When I saw the 'Completed: Yes' I felt a huge wave of sadness take over and then to find Bella was gone did me in.  I cried so hard throughout this entire chapter.  The only time I smiled was when Bella and Edward talked about their kids.  Edward's pain and desolation was so real it was palpable.  I swear I could feel his heartbreak at losing the center of his existence.  And then for him to force himself to live after her for three whole years was just awful.  Yes it was easier for the kids to not lose them both together, but in all reality, they did.  Edward died the day Bella was killed; his body just didn't get the message from his heart. 

It was a beautiful and tragic end to a story that I have looked forward to every time I got an email alert.

This has been such an incredibly amazing story!  I have loved every word, every emotion and every character.  I really cannot put into words how much I have enjoyed reading this.  This story had so much depth and love and hot spanking sex.  It was perfect (and I do not use that word lightly).  I feel like I have just lost two dear friends.  I know I will reread this at some point just to go back to happier times and visit this wonderful world you have given us.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this with us. 

All my best,

Nickey 

PS.  I wish there was a higher rating than 10, because 10 seems completely inadequate for this chapter and this story.



Author's Response:

Thank you very much.  For some reason I didn't feel like I could leave this story until they had a definite conclusion and tohave Edward die just struck me as cliche - way too expected.  I loved writing this story and I feel as if they did get a HEA in a way.  Thanks for reading - Beth

I am so glad you wrote this chapter from Edward's POV.  It cleared up a lot of what happened last chapter and exactly what his intentions were with Tanya and Bella together in the house.

I can tell that he really likes Bella, but I don't see him being satisfied with Bella only as his submissive.

And to answer your question, I think she went home.  I don't think she is comfortable with being in his home.  She is an independant soul and wants to remain that way.

While we are on the subject of Edward...I don't think that stalking Bella at home and school is going to win her over.  Any D/s relationship is based on a deep level of trust and I have to say that if I were Bella, I wouldn't trust Edward as far as I could throw him.

I wouldn't trust Edward either. And i doubt Bella does right now. Hopefully, Edward can stop his stalkerish ways and fix things! (:
