Bio:
I am a "Mature" woman who admittedly is obsessed with Robert Pattinson and The Twilight Saga much to the chagrin of my family. Thankfully, they let me indulge in my favorite past time of reading twilight fan fiction stories.
I would love to be able to write like all these wonderful authors but haven't had enough talent or confidence to write. Maybe one day but for now, happy just to have the opportunity to read these incredible stories!
EPOV of Virgins & Villains. **Important- Read the first 15 chapters of V&V before reading this**. Edward Masen, Hollywood heartthrob, meets Bella Swan, shy college student, and the romantic sparks fly.
Thanks very much once again to Coleen561 for the awesome banner!

Loved it! I'm glad you didn't "retell" the story. Edward was so wrong to tell Bella he wishes she was afraid of her own shadow. Big mistake....huge!
Author's Response: Thanks very much! I'm glad you like the story

Pieces are falling into place! Now we know why Esme gave Edward the "marry or you're cut off" when he was dating Angela. Mother & daughter were in cahoots all this time! Angela being Esme's daughter?? That came out of left field! Nice twist....makes more sense now!
Hope they get there in time. Guessing Laurent is just a sick, evil mofo & Eric is clueless.
Great job!! The plot thickens & I can't wait for more!

Stupid, stupid, stupid! Edward, your plan is going to blow up in your face. Clean break baby...clean break!

Tell him that....stupid stupid boy....he not even a man now....bella's got him by the balls...hahahah DLIR AND ARI.....thanks for reviewing
Date: 02 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 10: I fucking love swings
I'm glad Bella called Edward even if Angela answered! She's going to stay with them & now that Edward will know Bella has left Eric, he can leave Angela. The pretense can end!!
Author's Response:
:) she needed her Spartan....xoxoxo thanks for reviewing DLIR AND ARI
Date: 08 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 11: tú eres mi pecado mortal. (you are my mortal sin.)
I'm glad Rose "slapped" some sense into Edward. He really just needs to end things with Angela. Its wonderful that Bella finally admitted to Edward that she needs him & he needs her. She has to tell him what happened with Eric.
Cock blocked?? Damn....there was going to be some major sexing going on if they hadn't been interrupted!
Really loved the update but could have done without the song lyrics. It was just a tad too much.
Cannot wait to see what Angela wants. Maybe she will do girl talk with Bella & confess her cheating so Edward can finally be rid of her!
Author's Response:
Rose/Em did knock a lil sense into him! :) Yes things would have gotten good if Ang didn't interrupt. Thank you so very much for your review! We really appreciate your support. <3

Date: 20 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 12: Pom Pom's
I'm glad they're exercising ome restraint. Bella has it right; she needs to move out before Edward serves Angela with divorce papers. Edward should also find a place to live first & Bella should take a long vacation so Angela can't guilt Bella into ending things with Spartanward!
Good chapter....happy holidays....be safe!
Date: 01 Jan 2011 Title: Swing My Way
Oh Edward....you know better! You're a lawyer; think before you speak!
Good thing is....Bella & Ang aren't friends anymore. Edward can use his oral skills & talk his way out of this. Tell Angela he's had her followed & wants a divorce. However, if Bella takes the fall then Angela would be so pissed she won't go to Bella for solace & B&E can live HEA!
In any case, great chapter. All that UST was painful! Don't know if I could have restrained myself for as long as they have; even if it has only been a few days!
Date: 01 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 13: Use Somebody
Huh....I thought I reviewed this already!!
In any case....this may be a good thing! Angela will be pissed at Bella so Bella and Edward can be together with no guilt!! Edward can use this knowledge, maybe spin in that he's been suspecting infidelity so he had Angela followed and has can use it in his divorce proceedings so that Angela can't take all of his stuff since he never had a prenup! Threaten to go public with her skankiness if she tries to stick it to him!!
Love it!!
Happy New Year!!
Author's Response:
LOL you may have reviewed. But we had to repost the chapter. We couldn't respond to the reviews! I know stupid man for no prenup! Good idea about going public about her! We are busy working on the next chapter! Thanks for the awesome review!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Date: 08 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 14: Thank you..Thank you..Thank you..part 1
Ok...here's my part of reaching your review goal. Make sure you count the ones on ffn!!
I'm glad Bella was the strong one....as much as they love each other, it's not the right time. Clean break, close one book before you start another, etc.
Angela is a woman scorned but I'm hoping she gives up sooner than later. Hate seeing the soul mates apart longer than they have to be!!
Good job! Looking forward to more!
BTW - love the dual POV's. Makes it so much more exciting!
Author's Response:
Yes we counted FFn....hahaha and we were overwhelmed..............part 2 is coming asap...Ari is doing the last minute fixers as we speak. and we love writing the two POV's
Date: 10 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 15: Thank you Part 2
So worth the wait!!! Loved how they gave themselves a time limit & limited their contact. Made the reunion that more special, sexy & meaningful!
Cannot believe Angela! Talk about living in the land of denial! Take a hint bitch! You lost, he wants out, deal with it! Where's your pride? I'm sure, as a lawyer, you can find a way to dissolve a marriage even if one party doesn't want it. Edward should just tell his Mom & her parents that they are separated & getting a divorce. Just because Angela wants to live in la-la land doesn't mean the rest of them have to.
Glad Bella's apt is secure. Hope Edward is taking safety measures too! I think it's Eric who's making the prank phone calls. He's also a partner scorned so Bella & Edward need to be on their guard. Hope Edward tells Emmett about the weird calls. Knowledge is power, folks!
Angela & Eric worry me. I can see Eric hurting Edward to get back at Bella & Angela is just plain nuts!
Again, great job....can't wait for the next one!
Author's Response:
Wow what a review! Thank you for the awesome review sweetie! We are so glad you like it! We are workin on the next chap now. Okay Edward does tell Em in the next chap about the calls. So that will be worked out soon. Ang is way more than just nuts LOL.

Date: 25 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 17: Sinners Part 2
Alibi? What was Eric's excuse? Somehow I don't believe it!
Very sexy but still irritated at Angela's state of denial! Both parties don't have to agree, do they? Really, does Angela really think that if she doesn't sign the divorce papers, Edward will miraculously fall in love with her? Seriously?
Really great chapter and yes, I'd love a sneaky peak!
Author's Response:
hahah,,,, well the next chapter will go into a little more depth of what Edward is going to do with the whole situation.....so hope that clears up a bit....xoxoxoxoxo
heres ur teaser love
"Bella?"
I stopped walking and turned to look at who was calling me. "What's he want?" Jessica whispered to me.
"I don't know." I walked towards the security desk. I smiled at the guy I have said hi to on more than one occasion.
He smiled at Jessica and lifted his hand to her. "Hi, I'm Mike," he introduced himself.
Mike, that's his name.
Jessica giggled as she shook his hand. I knew that giggle. She was crushing on Mike. "Hi, I'm Jessica."
I stood beside her, deciding to stay quiet until they were done their introductions. "So you wanted to talk to me Mike?" I placed the bags I was carrying down on the desk top as did Jess.
His facial expression turned serious, his smile wiped away as he stood up from his chair and leaned closer to Jessica and I. "Um, well," he looked at Jessica.
"Whatever you have to say you can say in front of Jess," I clarified, feeling my heart race. He was starting to freak me out.
He looked at me now, nodding his head. "I don't know you that well, but I'd like to think were kinda friends since we say hello every day. I mean, you have always been nice to me so I only find it right for me to tell you this."
I furrowed my brows as he looked over my shoulder, and then his, clearly making sure no one was around.
"An Angela Masen came to me today."
My heart dropped to my stomach. I stood still lungs deflated, no attempt to fill them.
"What the ** did she want?" Jessica grabbed my hand as I said nothing. I barely functioned, let alone, comprehended what he was telling us.
"She actually tried to come on to me." He laughed a little which quick started my heart to life. I need to breathe to live. "Well after that failed attempt I noticed her staring at the monitors." He turned and pointed to the six screens that videoed various parts of the building. "She asked me if I had access to all the videos that were recorded and if we actually keep them. I had no idea why she was asking until she mentioned her husband."
I gasped, placing my hand over my mouth. "She wanted to know if I personally could help her. Maybe if I have seen Mr. Masen with any type of woman."
I shook my head not wanting to hear this.
"She offered me a lot of money. I mean A Lot." He started fidgeting with some papers. My eyes came down to see a small video cassette sitting under the papers he was purposely moving. He folded the paper, slipping the tape in the middle, placed it on the desk, sliding it towards me. "No one else has seen it and I plan on keeping it that way."

Thank goodness Edward is taking control & getting rid of the troll. If Angela thinks Edward is bluffing & doesn't respond....nada baby!
Now, let's deal with the dork once and for all as well so our couple can finally have the life they deserve!
Wonderful job!

Finally!! So glad Angela was put in her place, sort of. Not sure if I'd have told Angela about the incoming papers but whatever. Glad Edward is going to see his mom; hopefully before angela has.
Crank phone calls? Hmmmm.....Rose is on it!
I love how they argue but still love & hold onto each other. Bubble gum candy cotton sweet!
Cannot wait forgets next one!! This was fantastic!!
Author's Response:
Yes Ang was put in her place. I'm working on the whole Edward/Esme part now. Lets just say it's not going to be pretty. Rose is all over the calls. How ever what she finds is going to be a shocker! :)

I searched the crowd around me, as I continued to walk towards the dance floor. The beat of the song fueled any emotions I was starting to feel. It grew stronger by the second, the words now increasing the desire and passion I was desperate to have.
I stopped at the edge of the dance floor, turning in a slow circle when I felt him. His fingers slipped over my waist, pulling me into him as he wrapped his arms around my chest. His face slipped over my shoulder as we both inhaled one another’s presence.
His chest vibrated electricity up my back and spine as we just stood, together. “God I missed you,” he spoke into my hair as my eyes rolled back at the sound of his voice. I grabbed his hand in mine, bringing it up to my lips and pressing a kiss upon it.
His skin was warm under my lips. I kissed his hand again before I turned to face him. My knees shook weak as my eyes met his. The green in his eyes were breath taking against his black satin mask.
My fingers slid up to play with the hair on the back of his neck as he took a moment to look down my body. He licked his lips as his eyes made their way back up, I smirked at him once our eyes met once again.
“You look gorgeous,” he leaned down and kissed my lips. I held his neck tighter, pushing his mouth into me as I deepened our kiss. I pushed my hips into his, starting to move my body slowly to the rhythm of the song.
Neither of us slowed or stopped our kiss as we began to dance seductively. Te amo…then she put my hands around my waist…oh she cried…Te Amo…
I broke our kiss, taking each of his hands in mine as I swayed my hips back and forth, allowing him to watch me dance for him. “Don’t it mean ‘I love you.’?” I sang along with the song. “I think it means ‘I love you’.”
I tilted my head back, allowing my hair to cascade down as he lowered his lips to kiss up and down my neck. I didn’t give a shit who was watching. It was just me and Spartan, enjoying our reconciliation.

Fantastic chapter! Love Bella & Edwards electricity! I need an Edward (whine)

LOL...you really made me laugh with your review. I love how passionate my readers can be. Stay tuned, a lot more to come.
I hope I will have an update soon.
I'm glad you're lovin my Edward and Bella...they have soooo much chemistry!
Date: 16 Nov 2010 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 - A Fresh Start
Was looking for something to read and saw this rec on the TWCS Library site and decided to give it a try!
Must say, I'm glad I did. I was a little put off on the depth of depression that Edward went/is going through. I understand and can relate to being broken up with but I guess it wasn't "the one" since while I wallowed for a while, I gave myself a kick in the a$$ after a couple of months instead of 6+. I do want to punch Tanya in her fake face for leading Edward on. No one should play with another's feelings. If it's not there, tell them. Bella did that with Jake and while it hurt, it was honest and there weren't any vagueness to it even if Jake thinks it could be more. Bella didn't lead him on like Tanya apparently did.
Like I said, I'm liking this and am intrigued. I hope Edward does allow himself to heal and realize not all women are like Tanya. I hope he doesn't become a manwhore....not worth it and will leave you feeling empty, not to mention hurt the one you're meant to be with.
Author's Response:
I'm glad that you gave it a try. Edward will slowly start coming out of his shell a more in future chapters. As for you last comment - I'm in total agreement, I considered it, but after all the FF that I have read, I just couldn't see Edward doing that, not saying that he won't try dating again - and I will leave it there. I hope I don't turn you off down the road. Thank you again for the response and the read!!
Date: 16 Nov 2010 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 - Fighting the Demons
Thanks for the insight into Edward's Valentine's Day plans. Helped put things into perspective as to why Tanya's betrayal hit him from left field. He said they hadn't been together since Thanksgiving....but he knew he wanted to marry her at Christmas. Weren't they together then? Could the baby be his? Will she lose the baby and then try to reunite with Edward once his broken heart begins to heal...hopefully with Bella's help? Sorry for the questions...assume some if not all will be answered in the chapters to come.
Love how Edward messed around with Jasper....serves him well!
Author's Response:
School kept him from going home and being with her over the holidays. There will be more in the upcoming chapters. That's for following along. I hope I don't disappoint. :)
Date: 16 Nov 2010 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6 - The Past Comes Knocking
Tell Edward!! Better to know your enemy than be sideswiped again! So....what happened to Tanya and the baby? She must have had it by now!
Glad Bella wasn't oblivious to James. If he makes her skin crawl, she'll be more aware and with Alice knowing, she should get the boys to help out as well!
Author's Response:
I totally agree....Tanya will be back in the picture in future chapters. I hope you stick around. Thanks for enjoying my work so far!!

You're setting up a nice foundation here. Looking forward to more Edward for now. Bella is in the dark but I think Edward will tell her eventually once he knows what's going on!
Date: 02 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9
Good chapter & nice to hear Edwards pov. Still wondering what happened to Tanya & baby.
I was upset that Tanya & what she did can still affect Edward so much after all this time. Everyone heals in their own timeframe but it just bothers me cause I hate seeing a sad Edward ;(

Good....James is creepy!
Can't wait for the next one....need some answers!
Author's Response:
They're coming!! So much has already happened in a day,lol. There is more to this chapter and hopefully it will be up within the week. Thanks for reading!!
Date: 13 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 10.5
I'm glad Edward told Bella about his past. I think talking about it helps the healing process.
I really don't want Tanya to return. I think she's shallow, mean & cruel and I don't want Edward to be abused, hurt, used or tormented by her any longer. If she had the baby & James abandoned her, I don't want Edward to feel sorry for her & offer to help nor do I want her to play on Edwards soft side if she lst the baby, etc.
Good chapter but I always love the EPOV's more!
Date: 21 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 11
I get that Edward is gun shy. He was hurt & deceived in the worse way and now to see his ex friend who betrayed him back in the outskirts of his life?? He's going to let hs anger be in the forefront & push away the physical retain he is having toasted Bella. He's too emotionally raw to get involved with anyone but I also think he's done enough wallowing & needs to let it go. If he truly thinks about it, was he really on live with Tanya or was he in love with the idea of being in love!
Hmm....good chapter but I'm looking forward to seeing what James intents are, what happened to Tanya & kid and Edward letting go of the past.
Date: 20 Mar 2011 Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 14 - How do you help one who is in hell?
Good, intense & some questions answered but it seemed a little transitional. The big question is Tanya. Hope you answer it soon.
Author's Response: In all due time, Tanya will be coming up soon. I would like ask what you meant by transitional, just curious, maybe I could go back and edit if needed. Thanks again.
Date: 03 Jan 2011 Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 11.5
Welcome back! I've missed this story!
Some questions answered but still more out there. Please don't let that baby (if there's one out there) be Edwards.
You have nailed it with James being a psychopath.
Looking forward to more!
Author's Response:
Thanks for sticking with me...
:)
Believe me I am having a blast writing this. I wish I could give you some insight as to what's instore, but it's going to get good!! James is one screwed up individual, he will only get nastier!! *EG*
Date: 20 Mar 2011 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - Broken Heart
What I meant by transitional was that this chapter felt, to me, like a bridge so to speak to the next phase of the story. You've been great in setting the stage as to what, why, when & where all this has occurred to make Edward the way he is.
He's been hurt & crushed in the most heartbreaking & deceitful of ways and now, he's willing to share the pain, guilt & fears with his family. Therefore, a transition to the next phase.
There's no need to edit this chapter; it's perfectly fine the way it was written.
For me, it's been 14 chapters of build up, wonderment, questions & now with Edward feeling the strength & impetus to share the "whole story" with his family, I just felt that this was the chapter that was needed to get into the present.
No offense was meant or intended.
Author's Response: Oh no offense was taken, believe me. You are right in stating this because it was my intension to get the whole story out in the open and for Edward to find his strength, regain his life back - even though he still has lingering issues, he's subconsciously letting them go.
Again, I'm new to this type of medium. I'm learning as I go. It has been a joy writing this and reading everyone's feedback. Thank you very much!
Date: 30 Jun 2011 Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 15 - Facing the Music - Part II
Good....glad Edward got the support & acceptance he needed from his family. I'm glad you didn't retell the entire story about the rape, etc., but I was hoping for more reaction from the family regarding the Tanya fiasco and maybe more info or update on where she is and the baby.
Question...if Bella is from Forks, are the Cullens from there as well and did they know each other in high school? Maybe I need to reread some earlier chapters. I know Edward & Emmett are older but what about Alice or did they go private?
Anyway, thanks for the nice update I'm glad Edward & Bella are moving forward albeit slowly but that's okay. Just not too slow, okay?! You know we need our lemon merengue (fluff & citrusy!).
Some questions answered but loads more out there! Great job!
Author's Response:
Edward didn't really want to rehash the whole Tanya thing...he's finally moving on and to bring it up again would have take a few steps back.
I will say that Tanya will be coming back...so those questions will be answered soon.
Yes everyone is from Forks and they all attended high school together but they didn't 'know' each other....the Cullens had their own little click and Bella had her group of friends...Bella and Alice acutally talk about it in a previous chapter. Bella know about them, saw them around school but thought herself 'unworthy' of getting to know them. Alice and Bella are both 18, they graduated in the same class.
Things will continue to move along...but there will be some 'bumpy' roads that intervene, causing some issues. (Hey, that's where the angst comes in...sorry, but have faith in me...this will have a HEA).
Date: 27 Sep 2011 Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 16 - Moving Forward?
Glad to get the update and EPOV is always welcomed. Guessing the surprise is James and Tanya? About time....dying to hear her side/view of stuff!
Author's Response:
Thank you fo sticking with me...I'm glad my faithful followers are still here...EPOV are a little bit easier to write because it's what I know, plus he has SO much to say...lol
A lot more to come...there is still so much happening from all kinds of angles...*evil grin*
Hope to have the update in a few weeks....*cross your fingers*
Date: 22 Jan 2013 Title: Chapter 22: Chapter 18 - Facing Reality Head On
I think she's scared, lots happening fast but I also think what they have is special. I'm hoping it fast forwards to the DNA and that he's is NOT the father.
Author's Response:
She is scared, but Bella will surprise you. What Edward and Bella have is very special. Edward knows it in his heart, but still not sure what to call it. As far as the DNA...just wait and see. ;-)
Thank you for sticking with me, I'm very happy you did. I will start working on the next update asap so I don't have long waits in between updates.
Stay tuned...so much more to come.

BTW - very hot & worth the wait!

Date: 16 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 18: Yeah, I Got Nothing..
Again.....best non sex EVER!!! I love the cave ward tendencies!
Author's Response:
Me, too! That's why I wrote him like that. I've tried to take the different traits from all the different 'wards out there and put them together. The next one-Edward will be different from either ATH & CRR, but still a combination to make him very yummy. Thanks for the support!!
Date: 16 Dec 2010 Title: Chapter 17: Baring Souls
More self control than I would have had. I love that they kiss a lot & sleep in the same bed but it didn't lead to sex....yet!
Author's Response:
I was trying to build it up. I think the next one I write (which I am currently working on) they're just going to jump each other right away! LOL Thanks, I liked it, too. It kind of made it sweet, them being all lovey-dovey!

Seems a little out there but that's why it's fiction; the skies the limit with words & imagination.

Great chapter & I loved the way they told their story!
Thank you oodles for the daily updates! This story is heartwarming!
Some itty bitty errors like Bella enjoying lunch & then in the next sentence, after she finished breakfast she took a nap & then a couple mix ups on him & hers. No worries, I figured it out. Didnt realize Bailey was a girl; thought you said her boys in the beginning but again, doesn't matter; love the story!

Good one...looking forward to the next one.
