There's a Secret and Lies? With no Family Ties?! No wonder I got confused...Well that's the one I think is the best of the 'secret child' fics

Lol, there's family ties just not in the title. 
S&L is an almost perfect fic - definitely one of the best I've read.

Shit! I almost clicked on the damn link AGAIN! 

You know I love you, demaris.  I just want you to be happy..and to let us know you're happy! (preferably with a few juicy details)

I'm sitting here visiting with my daughter.  She's back from visiting her boyfriend and his family in the mountains, since being away from him for the whole summer has become too much to bear.  We have a "don't ask" policy, although I will accept any information she wants to give.  However, if I make any suggestive comments, I get an indignant "MOM!" in response.  That means you get the brunt of my nosiness.  I have to let loose somewhere!

I totally know what you mean hun, whenever I ask the daughter how and her b/f are doing she does the whole "MUM!" thing with me as well.
You'd think she'd be nicer to me considering that we're letting her (older) b/f live with us (long complicated story).

Luckily, my daughter is only 15, in an all girls catholic school. Though the all boys catholic school is just a fence away.  She knows absolutely no boyfriend allowed until she's 35  She does have some boy friends and she has shot down the 2 suitors who've courted her. 

So far, she has her head on straight, very conscious about getting high grades or honors. My hub and i are the ones telling her to chill, that she doesn't need to get perfect scores or all As. I am conflicted whether i want her to be like me, having kissed and been with only 1 man. But i realize that is unrealistic these days and she may end up kissing more boys than i had. But i just hope we've guided her enough to know the value of her virtue. Yeah, virtue  This from a p0rn fan. 

FFG, 'MOM!' is an exclamation i often hear from my daughter too. I try not to pry much in fear she will close up on me and not share what's happening with her. Right now, am actually enjoying our "bond" when our eyes meet or i hastily tap her or whisper to her to point out a cute hottie when we're out. Hope she continues to think i am a cool mom which am happy to note her friends tell her bec i keep updated on stuff about Rob  , boy bands/music, movies which am not embarassed to talk to them with 

This is why i love all the stories shared here. It teaches me how to deal with a similar situation in case i encounter it. Not that i know of anyone with a PA, but you'll never know or should i say, one can only hope?!! 

Oh Booked, that's pretty bad combo right there - Catholic Boys next to Catholic girls.   
I thought it was bad enough having to walk the 1/4 mile to the all boys reform school when I was in an all girls Catholic school, I'm sure I would of got thrown out of school a helluva lot earlier if the boys were only a fence away. 
But that was just me, I was pretty rebellious and never really stopped that tbh. 

I'll swap my 15 year old for yours. 
Whenever I see a hottie and I'm out with her and mention it, she's like "You're way too old to act like that Mum!"  I'm 31 FGS not 81!! 

I'm about 75% finished with Art After 5...   I thought it got a little boring there in the middle, but now the has happened and its turning out to be really good.

Any good sugar daddy stories ? Bella and Edward ? complete ?

Does No Ordinary Proposal by Twilover76 count?  I really enjoyed it. Bella just graduated from HS. Edward is much older.  You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

There's another one, but I'm blanking a bit. Bella finds herself pregnant. Edward's wife died in an accident. Starts out with him just helping her thinking she's with Jasper. Oh yes, Tequila Sunrise. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

My last rec is Better Than Pie by Savannavansmutsmut. Great Emmett in this. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

That's about all I have. All of them have an Richward that Bella marries to help pay for school.

Any good sugar daddy stories ? Bella and Edward ? complete ?

I don't know if this counts as a sugar daddy but it was the first thing that came to mind and I think pretty much everybody likes this one:

There is a Light - belladonnacullen - 142k; This was 1987; before the Internet, before Twitter, before Facebook – this was back when it was still possible for people not to know about things: big things - like bands, and little things - like G-spots. AH

My friend wants to read her very first fanfiction. (well, in actual FF form... she's read 50SoG and Gabriel's Inferno).   What do you guys recommend as a guaranteed winner?   I'm thinking one of these:

Trippin', Slippin', Stumbletumblin' - Yellowglue
Wide Awake - AngstGoddess003
Deviant by Planetblue
Fridays at Noon by troublefollows
Words With Friends (my only issue with this one is it gets kinda complicated if you want to also read WWStrangers at the same time)
THe Practicum by TheFicChick
Stranger Than Fiction by MasenVixen
Dear Mr Masen by jendonna
Sexy Silk by jlho
Comp Sem 101 by bornonhalloween
The List by Lauracullen

I read Comp Sem 101 and enjoyed it. Not a lot of smut in it, but a good story. Depends what your friend is into. If she wants lots $ex then this may not be the story for her.

I really want to recommend Trippin' Slippin' but I'm wondering if it's almost too good for a first fanfiction?  Nothing else may ever compare?  LOL

So many good fics listed here but I loved Fridays at Noon by troublefollows.  You might think of adding Mr Horrible by Algonquinrt (which is posted on this site).  As for Trippin it is a brilliant fic but her style of prose is not for everyone.

I second Friday's at Noon.  If she liked FSoG, then she should like it. 

WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!

   

A May to December Romance is not complete and I doubt it ever will be - another author that got us hooked with regular updates and then abandoned us.

Well that sucks because that sounds like it could be a great story.

It is but then there are 100's of great unfinished stories on FF. 

unfortunate but so true. this is why I don't read WIP's. did the story at least finish at a good spot, or does it leave you hanging?
