This is a wonderful story. There are a lot of emotions involved in this story. There is horror over the abduction of Bella and Lily, Edward's daughter. Then there's the whole painful side where Edward, Charlie and the Cullens are trying to find them. Then when they are found the healing process begins and you see that because of one man their lives will never be the same again. Although they do heal gradually and I love how the author has shown the entire process. One of the other things that I loved about this fic is how Edward and Charlie bond over their pain of missing their daughters. It has one of the most amazing Daddywards and I absolutely loved the character of Edward's daughter, Lily. She was so adorable and going through the things that she had to go through, she was so strong and so amazing. Give it a try!

I know The Red Line is not marked complete on fanfiction but don't worry, it is complete. I don't know why it is not marked, though. It's sequel is Coloring Outside the Lines and that is complete too. In The Red Line Bella and Edward come from two different worlds in this fic. She is just a graduate student and Edward is a stripper in a club. When they come in contact you start to learn Edward's story and you find out how difficult his life his and that he can't even get out of it. Why? You'll find out later. There are BDSM themes in it and my heart literally broke for what Edward had to go through because he needs the money but he's not just stuck in that life because of money. Apart from that the smut is damn good hot and the writing is absolutely fabulous. If you want a fic that you can't put down, then go for it.

The sequel is more about healing and there are some really angsty spots but there is a lot more humor in it so it is balanced out. it is emotionally charged and the epilogue is super long but it wraps up everything very nicely so that you understand anything that you might have missed. I absolutely loved both of them and they are an amazing piece of work to read.

We have tattward and inkella in this fic and it's very angsty. Bella and Edward have broken pasts. It's also very smutty and absolutely hot! As Bella gets herself tattooed she lets Edward in and together they heal eachother. It's great writing and I totally love this fic. Oh and Edward absolutely loves cupcakes in it which made me eat quite a few while reading it so watch out for that!

Wide Awake Outtakes

These are chapter outtakes for Wide Awake. Scenes and false starts that didn't make the cut, but still have some funny and good moments. Just for fun. Not serious business. Don't read if you've become attached to the finer details in the story.

Rated: M

This was the first fic that I ever read and I got hooked on fanfiction. Before that I have no idea what I was doing with my life. It's pretty angsty but amazing piece of work and this is my all time favorite fic! Edward and Bella are pretty broken in this fic but they find happiness together and I know that there are a lot of fics out there which have the same premise but Wide Awake is in a class of its own.
