Bio:
Isabella del Cigno (21) is the daughter of the infamous mob boss, Charlie del Cigno (Cigno means swan in Italian). He's ruthless, cunning and deadly. The FBI wants to put an end to him but can't ever find enough evidence linking to him back to various crimes. Isabella is just as cunning and deadly but she lives the life of the mafia elite - fast cars, endless money and anything her heart desires, except freedom from the tyranny of her father. Charlie doesn't want his only child to be killed by his arch enemies, the Volturi, so Isabella is closely guarded.
Edward Cullen (26) is a special agent in the FBI. He's chosen to infiltrate the del Cigno Syndicate of the mob. He works his way through the ranks and is eventually hired as Bella's bodyguard. Initially, he can't stand Bella - he thinks she's a whiny, self-centered, enabled b*tch. Then, she gets shot at and Edward knows he was chosen for this mission for a specific reason. Yes, he wants to bring down the del Cigno Syndicate but he must save Isabella, who has a secret of her own...
How can Edward fulfill his obligation for the FBI but still keep the girl?

They seem to be getting stronger physically and emtionally everyday little by little. They need each other to get through the trail, glad Bella has finally realized she needs Edward.
Looking forward to the trail.

A new chapter in their lives is beginning. I hope all runs smoothly for them.

I'm wondering if they'll experience any problems with the distance, such as jealously or self-doubts, etc.?
Date: 09 Nov 2013 Title: Chapter 193: Chapter 193
I completely get where Bella is coming from. I can't imagine how lonely and unimportant she's feeling right now. She needs to take Irina's advice and open herself up to someone new and work on her trust issues. She should choose a woman to befriend and hang out with, a man may make her feel intimidated.
I don't see why she couldn't still go visit Edward, though. Instead of talking on the phone they could have some quite time when he got home. She could have always found something to occupy her time during the day while he was working.

I'm excited for the proposal.

Fantastic ending. You wrapped it up really well.
"Young women can act silly, but men... Men make bold gestures." I opened the trunk for Bella. The man inside ended up on the pavement. Bella's eyes widened, and she covered her mouth.

I can say I absolutely depise Roe, even if she was his wife.
I felt bad for Bella after Edward basically told her she was just his whore, and she was at that time. No wonder she changed toward him.
Loved the outtake. I'd like to see more, if you're up for it.
Sherry
One time, no matter how hot or sexy was not enough. We both knew it. So he made me an offer I couldn't refuse. For the next year my body would belong to Edward R Cullen; the billionaire, the genius, the sex addict and the married man. How did I get here and why don't I want to leave?

I'd like to have been a fly on the wall at the family breakfast, lol. Do you think you'll do an outtake of it?
What a tragic childhood Edward had. And he knows how her life wasn't too grand either. So sad.
I really don't feel bad for Tanya, at all. She wanted to be his wife, well she got his name, but not him.
He made love to Bella... Ahh, they're falling for each other whether they realize it at this point or not. Actions speak louder than words.
Looking forward to more.
Date: 19 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 25: Chapter 25
Tanya has some nerve. I hope she and James pay dearly. I love seeing Edward and Bella in a domesticated scene with the boys. I like Lizzy's snark. I'm curious as to what Carlisle had to say to Edward. Bella should've punched Rosalie in the nose, she's still as rude as ever.
Date: 05 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 21: Chapter 21
Mara is a spiteful bitch.
The food fight was such a great family bonding thing to do. Edward being able to celebrate Levi's birthday with him is so special after Tanya robbed them of so many years.
I'm glad Edward called Esme out on the Cullens not helping Bella and protecting her from Tanya. I can hardly wait to see how Tanya answers for all she's done wrong.
Fantastic how Edward is proving to Bella he is gonna be there for her and Levi to love and protect them. Glad Bella is willing to work it out with Edward and not turn tail and run.
Date: 31 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 26: Chapter 26
Fantastic chapter. Glad Lizzy felt she could go to Bella. So glad that Bella got her to open up about what was going on. Hopefully Rose won't be a bitch and be appreciative for Bella's help.
Very impressed as to how Edward handled those trying to take over his company.
Fun times with the kids.
Loved seeing a glimpse of the old Edward and Bella.
Date: 21 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15
I hope Bella introduces Edward, not only as Levi's piano teacher, but also as his daddy. Levi deserves to know, sooner rather than later. He's so intelligent, he may figure it out on his own. Being a gifted child, he deserves the best education available to him. I'm looking forward to Edward meeting Levi, as well as Roger.
I really wanna see Tanya pay for what she's done, not only by Edward's hands, but Bella's as well.
Sherry
Date: 05 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 20
The food fight was a great bonding moment for them as a family. Adored the way Edward was unsure of how to get Levi dressed and that Levi let Edward find his way through it. Sweet of Bella to tell Levi let Edward do it since he hadn't done it before.
I was wondering when the Cullen's were gonna make themselves known. I'm glad Edward called Esme out on not helping Bella, and that he's persuing Tanya on stealing the money and lying about everyting. I can hardly wait to see what she has to say for herself and about Levi.
Date: 22 Sep 2013 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Absolutely addicted, please continue.
Date: 22 Sep 2013 Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Things just got more interesting. I can hardly wait to see how Edward replies to Tanya's demand Bella leave.
So looking forward to more.
Sherry
Date: 30 Sep 2013 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4
Edward enjoys Bella being so sassy with him. Their banter is quite funny at times. They care for each other more than they want to admit.
I'm guessing something happened to Edward in the water is the reason he declined swimming and advised Bella not to drift to far out.
Esme surprised me. I thought for sure she was gonna blast Bella, glad she's supportive of Edward being happy, no matter who does it.
Bella should tell Edward about Tanya's threats.
Looking forward to more.
Date: 08 Oct 2013 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5
I'm wondering if it was actually Tanya or Alice that trashed Bella's clothes. I'm glad Bella didn't take any lip from Alice and she told her off. I love this Bella, she's pretty fierce.
I had to laugh at Tanya's reaction when she saw Bella exiting Edward's room. I thought Edward was going to have Bella sleep in there at least for the night.
Great chapter, looking forward to more.
Date: 13 Oct 2013 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6
I love Roger. He seems very dedicated to Edward and only wants him to be happy, and knows Bella makes him happy. I liked he gave Bella the recipes to make Edward breakfast.
I want Edward to take Bella as his 'date' to the functions Tanya was raving about. By staying in the marriage, Tanya is showing how ignorant she truly is.
I'm actually looking forward to some fantasies coming into play. I keep wanting Tanya to walk in on Edward nailing Bella without stopping while he addresses Tanya. So cruel, I know.
Date: 31 Oct 2013 Title: Chapter 7: Chapter 7
James and Tanya should hookup together. They'd be perfect for each other.
I'm surprised Alice talked civilly to Bella. And shocked Emmett defended her to James. I was certain it was Edward coming to her rescue. Can't wait to see what Edward says about James mistreating Bella.
Date: 14 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 22: Chapter 22
Happy Birthday JJ.
I love Roger. He's always been there for Edward. I see him being as devoted to Levi as he is Edward.
Carlisle and Esme had some nerve showing up uninvited, but I'd rather it be them than Alice. Bella has a lot to overcome and think about as to where Edward's family is concerned, as well as a lot of other things. She needs to make the move soon though, before they come back on their own. She needs to control the situation and do it on her own time and turf, without giving them any advantage points.
I like to see Bella get pregnant soon, so Edward could experience the pregnancy with her.
Looking forward to more.
Date: 05 Dec 2013 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8
I was so excited to see the update notification in my inbox.
Damn, Rosalie is a bitch for reals. Glad Edward kicked her out of his house. Poor Emmett, he does something good and catches hell from his wife.
Tanya... that chick has problems. Loved how Edward answered the door for her.
I think James is in for the fight of his life now.
Please update again soon.
Sherry
Date: 11 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9
When will Tanya ever give up? She's so delusional to think she's gonna be able to hang on to Edward much longer. And Charlie, did not see that coming. I think he's looking for compensation of 'losing' his daughter to a billionnaire. I wonder what all Tanya has told him.
One by one, Bella is gaining the acceptance of the Cullens.
Update again soon please.
Date: 12 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 10
I'm glad you're not letting those people break your groove and are going to continue to post here.
I enjoy reading how Edward desires Bella above everything else. It appears Tanya may have finallly set her fate.
Date: 15 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11
The banner change isn't all that bad actually.
Edward seems to be realizing what it'll be like if Bella did leave for good. Loved the emails. He's opening up to her, somewhat. I guess the ball is in Edward's court.
Date: 17 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12
WOW!!! I did not see that coming at all. How tragic, Edward finally was going to tell her he loved her and was coming to her. Then the accident leaving him in a coma. Oh god. Three months has passed has he not woken or did he develope amnesia? Tanya is a real nasty piece of work. Why hasn't Bella contacted Esme, Carlisle, Alice, or Roger to check on Edward? Wouldn't they help her now that she's pregnant with their heir? My stomach is in knots. I need more asap.
Sherry
Date: 20 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 14: Chapter 14
I get why you did the time jumps. If you had drawn out the pain they experienced while apart, it would have gotten repetitive, and boring. Thank you consolidating their separated years. We still know what they each went through without it drawn out.
I feel sorry for Edward having to learn of his child from a book and how Bella was treated. Finding out how difficult life was for her. I hope once he talks with Bella again, they talk honestly.
I'm looking forward to more. Don't let those that didn't like how something played out bother you much.
Sherry
Date: 26 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 16
I loved this chapter. We got to see Edward in a new light. Hopefully Bella will start seeing him in a new light as well. Levi is such a cutie. If he's half as smart as you betray him to be, he'll figure out Edward is his father in no time... and they can't lie to him... he'll know.
I need more of this awesome story.
Date: 28 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17
Angie was right to tell Bella to make a decision. It's been a long time coming. Edward made a bold move, but it looks like it was the right move to make. I knew Levi would make connections. He's just too smart. I loved Roger being referred to as Edward's Yoda... I want a Yoda too.
Why doesn't Bella enroll Levi in a school more capable of working with him? She's already worried he'll out do her. He also needs to be around other kids to learn some socializing skills.
When will the rest of the Cullens find out about Levi? Will Tanya make a return? I'm wondering if the media will invade their utopia. Lastly, is Mike gonna sale his story to the paps?
Sherry
Date: 29 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18
Whatever the significance of March 14 is to Edward, he now has a new meaning for that date. Looking forward to learning what that date meant in his past. Being Levi's birthday will overshadow the demons.
I'm thrilled Bella finally made a decision about Edward and herself. Jumping his bones may have not been the best thing to do until they get counseling, but what is done is done. They're moving forward, which is fantastic for Levi's sake.
I'm curious to find out what all his demons are that he has buried.
Sherry
Date: 01 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 19
I like how you condensed their lives without drawing it out. Jumping right into the fire and laying it all out there. The significance of March 14... how devastating to take a life then have a life born. March 14 has a new meaning for Edward now.
I feel awful for Edward and what he had to endure during his childhood. Thank goodness for Roger. When Carlisle didn't sweep it under the rug and took action. How did Edward's mother escape criminal charges for child neglect or even conspiracy to coverup the abuse?
Ben is correct... now there getting somewhere.
Date: 26 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 23: Chapter 23
Good luck with your mid-terms.
Tanya had it all planned out. What a bitch. Hopefully the police did a complete investigation instead of assuming Edward was just speedling, and realized the breaks had been tampered with.
I'm with Edward here. I want Tanya (and James) destroyed. But I'd really like to see Bella get a chance to put Tanya in her place and how happy Edward is with Bella and Levi.
Sherry
Date: 03 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 24: Chapter 24
I don't blame Bella for resenting the Cullen's. I hope she tears Rosalie a new asshole. They all need to go out of their way to make her feel welcome and make amends for the damage they did years before, since they knew Edward's marriage to Tanya was a farce and he truly cared for Bella.
I absolutley love Levi.
Date: 14 Apr 2014 Title: Chapter 27: Chapter 27
James's call was interesting to say the least. He evidently feels like he can still ruin Edward. And he may do it, if Edward isn't completely honest with Bella about James' intentions.
The interview is gonna be hard for Bella, but she wrote the book, allowed it to be published, took the money for it. She needs to toughen up and face the consequences now... together with Edward, or it may just tear them apart.
Levi needs a little brother. That boy is just too cute.
Date: 25 Apr 2014 Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28
Bella handled that interview like a pro. Didn't expect her to lie her ass off, but it worked out well for all.
Edward gave up the information on the dog real quick. lol
Date: 15 May 2014 Title: Chapter 29: Chapter 29
Levit and his dog was cute. Edward and Bella trying to be 'normal'. What or who defines what's normal?
Edward saying goodbye to his mother... kinda sad he's closes that chapter in his life, but I liked it that he told her he was getting married and about Levi.
Hopefully paying off Tanya will get her out of their lives for good now.
Bella needs to get pregnant again. Levi needs a baby brother bear.
Date: 03 Jun 2014 Title: Chapter 30: Chapter 30
I completely agree. There is no way to answer every little detail of this story. This couple is perfect, they have issues, some that will never to resolved. You ended it perfectly.
I'm gonna miss this story. I loved this Edward and Bella, and adored Levi. Thank you for sharing your words.
Bella had been lucky to land the job as the nanny to Esme and Carlisle's two girls, but when Carlisle's younger brother arrives in New York in need of a fresh start and some help with his own brood, Bella's world is quickly turned upside down. It was just supposed to be a job, but they quickly became everything she needed.

For some reason I didn't realize this was a companion to your other story. I'm intrigued, Bella seems very mature and knows what she wants out of life.
Date: 30 Jun 2015 Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28
Bella is easing right into being a co-parent. I'm surprised Rosalie talked so well to Bella. I was half expecting her to have some attitude.
Sherry
Date: 19 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15
I knew Rosalie was being to goody-goody acting around with Bella. Catholic boarding school is sounding fairly good for her. Maybe Edward should enforce her to volunteer out a homeless shelter to show her how lucky she has it. I'd have taken all internet and TV too. She doens't deserve any privileges.
Bella should be ticked at Edward for jumping to conclusions about the costume.
I half expect Rosalie to walk in on Edward and Bella showing some affection toward to each other at some point.
Date: 07 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13
As out of line Ben's reaction was, it is understandable and expected as a protective friend. I'm glad Ben and Angela now know how serious Edward and Bella is. Bella transitioning from nanny to live-in girlfriend, I think it the right move for them to progress.
Tanya will be a bitch about it, but I mostly fear Rosalie's reaction. She could undoubtedly ruin what they have.
Date: 07 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11
I feel bad Bella is basically trapped in a secret relationship, at least until Edward pulls his head out of his ass.
Date: 07 Mar 2014 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12
Edward better get there faster than he is now. Bella's right, when they go public, the same people (if any) will have the same problem no matter how long they're together.
Date: 15 Apr 2014 Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18
I'm glad Edward sees the error of his ways where Rosalie was concerned.
Communication is key and Edward is finally getting it right with Bella. His plan seems solid, let's hope it works out as it was intended without any surprises.
Date: 13 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 10
I hate to admit it, but I'm starting to get frustrated with Edward. He needs to man-up and go public with Bella as his girlfriend. I feel like he wants his cake and eat it too. Bella is his dirty little secret.
The situation with Heidi would have went down a different way had it been me. I would've staked my claim in front of her, be damned what Edward had to say about it.
Date: 05 Feb 2014 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9
Oh one hand it seems like Edward is hiding Bella as his dirty little secret. On the other, I get he's trying to take everything into consideration before going public. On that same note, Bella pretty much agreed to a private relationship with him, so she should't get pissy about it now. I think it's to the point now, they need to move forward or throw in the towel.
He confessed his love for her... Why didn't she reciprocate? She has the feelings there.
I'm wondering... was Bella not feeling well because she was feeing heartbroken, or could she possibly be feeling drained of energy because she's pregnant?
Date: 26 Dec 2013 Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3
They seem to be getting along so far for the most part.
Date: 26 Dec 2013 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4
All things aside, Bella seems to be adjusting to dealing with all the kids by herself. I espeically liked the way she handled Rosalie.
Edward is letting is guard down a bit.
Date: 26 Dec 2013 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5
Given Tanya's attitude, it seems like she and Bella will get on just fine where the kids are concerned.
A beach trip could very well test Edward's restraint, seeing Bella in a bikini.
Date: 03 Jan 2014 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6
I thought they'd hookup at the beach, but not so quickly. That was a very good surprise. Hope they work things out fast for the kids benefit. Rosalie is the only one I see throwing a fit about this lastest developement. I'm assuming Alice's nightmare is a prediction of the future.
Nicely done.

They should know everything about each other's pasts. Confiding in Edward is the best thing to do.
Date: 28 Nov 2014 Title: Chapter 23: Chapter 23

Thanks for updating. I'm hoping Esme and Carlisle come around soon. Nice to see Rosalie getting closer to Bella.
Sherry
A failed marriage and long divorce left Edward with a lot on his hands. Moving his kids closer to his family in New York was the fresh start he needed so that his family could thrive. Not knowing how he would juggle work and caring for his kids, he jumped at the chance to hire his brother's nanny to care for his own kids. But the moment Bella walked into his house everything changed. She started out as the nanny, but she quickly became everything he wanted.

Instead of Edward making plans as to how he is gonna make their relationship work, shouldn't it be both of them planning together as to how to proceed?
Whatever Edward feels he needs to work through, he should do it quickly before he does lose Bella. She doesn't need to be made to feel she is his dirty little secret.
Date: 31 May 2015 Title: Chapter 27: Chapter 27
I'm so happy you didn't drag this part out. A lot to take in, in one chapter, but well done. Rosalie needs an attitude adjustment, pronto. I adore Jasper and Alice, they just go with the flow. I'm amazed at Charlie and Sue in accepting Edward's relationship with Bella so easily. And I'm extremely disappointed in Esme and Carlisle in their behavior. Though, I'm excited that Edward decided to propose and not put it off any longer.

I feel like Edward isn't moving fast enough for Bella to be secure in their relationship, and any wave could rock the boat enough to make it capsize.

As well as things are going for Edward and Bella on a personal level. Edward better keep an eye on Heidi, now that she's lost the promotion and suspects his relationship with Bella. She could cause some trouble. A woman scorned and all that.

I do love how their relationship is developing. I think Rosalie may pick up on it fairly quickly.

Finally Edward has set a date to reveal his relationship with Bella. I seriously doubt Tanya or Rosalie will be to happy about it. I'm also concerned how Carlisle and Esme will react. I think Esme may be okay with it.
Looking forward to more.

About time Edward got a move on.

I'm glad Edward put Heidi in her place, just hope she doesn't decide to cause trouble for him in the future.
Also I'm glad he had decided to step up his game. Bella is so worth it. He needs to go public with his relationship with her... soon.

I don't think I've ever read this type of family dynamic... Edward being the father of Rosalie, Jasper, and Alice. It seems Rosalie has the same attitude as most stories. Tanya and Edward having an agreeable divorce and custody arrangement was unexpected.
Now that Edward has seen and met Bella he wants her bad... he's so fucked. I wonder what her reaction to him will be.
I'm looking forward to reading more.

Carlisle was gonna cut Edward's thoughts off on Nannygate before they even got going on Bella, lol. I'm sure there will be some hurt along the way, but I'm looking forward to the story unwinding.

Author's Response:
Sorry, I forgot to put this in the other response, so I tacked it onto this review, but her culinary degree comes into the story mainly as a skill that helps her take care of the family, and as an interest that will be explored more by the pair.

Either I overlooked it or it wasn't put into the story, but what did Bella go to school for? And does it have any bearing on the story?
The kids are gone for two whole weeks, that could be interesting time together for Edward and Bella to get to know each other.
Wondering why Edward is expecting Esme and Bella for at the office...
Author's Response:
In this story he referenced her culinary background, but in Bella's POV, you learn that she went to culinary school straight out of high school and then moved to New York to get a degree in English, creative writing specifically. And they're going to the office so Bella can get a key and Edward can give them his credit card so they can shop. Thanks for the review and I hoped that answered all of your questions. Have a great week!

I don't think Bella would be as opposed to getting with Edward as he thinks.
Rosalie needs taken down a notch or two. Soon.

Can hardly wait to the beach vacation. Edward will be drooling over Bella in a bikini. I sure hope he gets his birthday wish.
Bella seems to be handling the kids with ease.

I'm glad the conversation between Edward and Ben went smoother than I expected. They do need all the support they can roundup when they go public.
Still anxious about Rosalie's reaction, but hoping for the best.

I would say send Rosalie to the all girls school, but she'd find a way to blame Bella for it. That little girl needs some old school punishment to straighten her out.
Tanya and Edward need to find a new groove to discipline the kids.

I have a feeling Heidi will be quite the problem child at work. She's not gonna go down easily.
Glad to see Edward and Bella moving forward. Though I think this is the calm before the storm.
