I hear you about Mamasutra. Try Covenant of Ash. It's got a HEA, and no cheating by Bella or Edward. And it's very moving, with some terrific characters. The ending is wonderful.

A woman with nothing more to lose and a man who has lost everything come together under the disguise of an agreement as old as time and as sinful as flames that threaten to engulf them both. Will they find their salvation in each other or will this be another dream reduced to ashes from the fires that consume them?

I love that one.  And there is also another one she wrote that i love i forget the name but her and edward are lawyers, but of course he cheats.  That is why she use to be on my alerts but now I had to take her off for my own sanity.  That is a great story!! That's why I orginially posted I don't think she is a bad writer. It's just usually always Edward is cheating on Bella after awhile enough please.

Makes you wonder who Edward is a stand in for in her life. I mean, there has to be a reason why she never writes anything but cheaterward stories.

someone entioned somewhere that she was having problems with her husband.
if my husband was cheating on me (im assuming) i would write fics about killing him. getting some sort of revenge. finding someone else.

maybe she wants to be known in the fandom as the cheating lady.

i dont read cheating fics. i can read rape, death ( as long as it is not edward or bella), abuse, etc, but no cheating.

The most FLOUNCE-deserving story i remember is "The Woods are Lovely, Dark, and Deep," Author: bananapancakes7.   For about 30 chapters/ 200,000 words, it's an angsty romance with crime plot, ALL HUMAN, nothing remotely supernatural. Just when the plot wraps up, minor characters start dying from VAMPIRE attacks, and two years later, there's no end in sight.

Anyone reading this?

Harkham's Case
Author: Scarlettplay  PM
AH, OOC. B/E. "If it's not Asperger's, then what is it?" Bella asked. Alice paused before answering, "We don't know what he has. He was the first documented case. For now, he's called Harkham's Case number one." Bella smiled as a tear leaked out. "Okay." But nothing was. This changed everything. Rated M for adult content even though it starts out in high school.

it had potential. i dont know why i keep reading.
this turned out to be the kind of fic that i think the author just wants to mess up with the readers.

so many plot twist that you just dont know the difference between up and down

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login. I flounced this because it seemed like a stupid idea. Bella gets annoyed by Edward giving her money to go to college after he's buggered off NM style so rather than doing the obvious thing and not using the money, she decides to backpack around Europe.. what?! And then she ends up on a bus with a vampire who takes her to the Volturi! Just stupid.

I agree. Everytime there was a new chapter I was hoping for something important to happen, but I just gave up...

One I flounced lately was Pinned but Fluttering by CassandraLowery.  It was like a Twilight re-write without interaction between E and B.
I made it to chapter 50 out of 60 before I said enough.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Maybe it's just me as there were a lot of reviews?

The summary for this intrigued me so I gave it a go.  Was about 10 chapters in and still waiting for the promised vamps and murders.  Got fed up so flounced it.  I was intending to go back cos I wanted to know the outcome.  Won't bother now, or maybe I will just read the last chapter!  Thanks for the heads-up.

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login. So to be fair, this is actually pretty well written.. until I got to chapter 17 and the lemon. This Edward has the WORST dirty talk ever. What woman wants to be told that her boobs wiggle? I just started laughing and couldn't read the rest. There's more lemons in the next couple of chapters and I cannot read that again!

Life is never perfect, the cracks always appear. "My Polaroid would show the face of a girl who has forgotten how to truly smile." Even the strongest of dreams can fail to become enough.

I found this fic so depressing! There was basically nothing happy about it at all. I ended up feeling sorry for Edward for having to deal with someone so whiny.

The whole Edward and Angela thing pi.ss.ed me off so much.
It was completely unnecessary.
I never regreted so much reading a fic.

I've tried so many times to read this one and just can't do it. First 11 chapters were great then the entire story changed and just gave me a major headache.

Oh my gosh this reminds me of The Ex Factor: Edward & Bella by AngelAtTwilight. It wasn't a BAD story, per say, just a little boring, predictable, and LOOONG. I struggled to get through it, and eventually flounced, because there was nothing to keep me reading those long chapters. Did I also mention that it's really long?
