The One That Got Away

The One That Got Away written by: tufano79 

Summary:  In high school, Bella was a quiet bookworm. Edward was the king of the school. She blended into the background while he seemingly flourished in the limelight. That wasn't the case. Ten years later, will he finally be able to get the one that got away?

Ramble:  This has a lot of short chapters.  It starts with a high school reunion, and a couple has a chance to start again.  Edward is a doctor who has twins, Bella is a librarian with a side job.  Things are pretty good for the most part, except for Tanya, the ex-wife and some moments where Carsile makes some mean remarks (almost wanting to jump through and hit him or something... ). 

By The Numbers

By The Numbers written by:  jancat

Summary: Social worker Elizabeth Bennet hates bankers. Will Darcy is an artistic soul trapped in a banker's world. Beer is spilled, barbs are thrown and love emerges. (AHA completed)

Ramble:  A rather quick modern story.  There is no crazy aunt on the Darcy side of the story this time.  Not only that, but the relationship problems between Charles and Jane does not really have anything to do with Darcy in this story.  The summary holds true, and seems to be a really quick read.

Perfect Fit

Perfect Fit written by:  Linda Wells

Summary: Billionaire Fitzwilliam Darcy is burdened with maintaining his family’s legacy following the tragic deaths of his parents, and must also attempt to restore his young sister’s spirit after becoming the victim of Internet luring by a former family friend.  Elizabeth Bennet is a popular author of young adult mystery novels, written as a way of escaping first the behavior and then the memory of a dominating former lover.  These two lonely people meet at a wedding, over a broken shoe, and learn that once upon a time can lead to a happy ending. (The book can be found on Amazon too)

Ramble:  A modern twist on the classic story.  Elizabeth has a history with Collins already that isn't that happy.  While their history is not covered in a lot of details, readers are able to see how it shapes Elizabeth's character.  At first, I thought the story could have ended earlier, but after reading it, the author ended it at the right place.  I guess my original thought stemmed from where the classic story ended, so imagine my surprise when I got to where I thought the story will end, but see a more pages to the story.  :)

How I Met the Man of My Dreams

How I Met the Man of My Dreams written by:  niknak995

 Summary: Struggling author Bella Swan meets a charming stranger after a mishap at a local diner. What happens when she recognizes his face on the cover of a national magazine? Mostly fluff. BxE RxEm AxJ

 Ramble:  So I kind of knew how Bella felt at the beginning.  With the whole not really knowing who Edward is thing.  I loved the way the author decided to start the story.  A glimpse of the ending before going back to the beginning.

Ramble: It took me a while to read this story, mainly because of reality. If only I can just dedicate the rest of my life reading, I will be happy. ;) This story has a few ups & downs along with quite a few twists and turns. Although it is labeled as artist, I really mean architect (Edward).
