An Acquired Taste

An Acquired Taste written by: Magnolia822

Summary: Arrogant British celebrity chef Edward Cullen made an impression on NYC caterer Bella Swan long before either one of them became a success. Now, armed with her cat and a devious practical joke, Bella's plan may turn up the heat for both of them. ExB OOC

Ramble: This is a really good balance between food and 'reality' TV. Personally, I found it to be a great story put together with a few great ideas. While there is a little bit of 'childhood' or past romance, and then meeting up later in live. For me, the ending of this story is not really that satisfying, but the author said that there will be an epilogue posted as a different story. I can't wait to read it!!

A Chance of a Lifetime (one-shot)

A Chance of a Lifetime (one-shot) written by: magan bagan

Summary: Bella is happy with a fulfilling career and great friends. What more
could she ask for? Nothing, at least until her cousin decides to take matters
into her own hands. And Bella is fighting to win the heart and love of
eligible Bachelor Edward Cullen.

Ramble: This is actually a pretty good bachelor story. As a one-shot, I have no complaints about what happened in the story, but a part of me wishes for some more details as the girls were getting to know Edward a bit more, but I know that would only be present in a multi-chapter story instead.

Mistress of Masen Manor

Mistress of Masen Manor written by: helluvabell

Summary:

A Regency Seduction

A gentleman.

A gentleman is a man of noble birth whose conduct conforms to a high standard of propriety. His behavior is beyond reproach. Usually Edward Cullen is the perfect definition of a gentleman… that is unless the new chamber maid, Isabella Swan, is nearby.

Ramble: I have to admit that this is one of the better 'past' stories I've read recently. Master of the manor who falls for a chamber maid. Part of me wishes that there will be more to this story, but at the same time, this is a really nice way of ending this story.

SexEd

SexEdwritten by: mcgt

Summary:

What happens when the host of the popular nightly talk show SexEd finds his relationship in a rut? Will they be able to spice things up before all is lost?

Second place winner in the Eat Your Heart Out Contest!

2nd place

Ramble: The incorporation of food in this story is really good. A little bit of information when the TV show was being recorded, and it is really the end that is really lemony. Simple, in the way that a couple is having problems, and by the end of the story, everything gets sorted out. Now, let me go see if I can find a few other stories from this contest.

What Are the Odds?

What Are the Odds? written by: Missus T

Summary: Best selling author Edward Cullen gets roped into being on The Bachelor. He feels a connection with a reluctant bachelorette on the first night, but what are the odds it will sustain itself until the final rose ceremony? Pick a Pic Entry

Ramble: A story about the bachelor, secret celebrity edition. For the length of the story, it does not have as many twists and turns as some other similar stories have. It seems like a simpler version of the story, while covering the main plot.

Billionaire

Billionaire written by: BoydBlog

Summary:

It was just a bit of fun, a chance for an all-expenses paid vacation, and a favor for her bestie. Never in a billion years could Bella have imagined just how much meeting Edward Cullen would invert her world.

Thanks to Belindella for the beautiful banner.

Ramble: I really like how this story worked out, but still wishes that the story was longer... What starts out as a favor becomes real, and identities are revealed. While we do not know what was exactly said in some parts, the imagination is very powerful, and everyone can probably come up with different lines.

Bella and the Bachelor

Bella and the Bachelor written by: Duessa

Summary: Bella goes on a reality television dating show to make a change in her life, but is that change what she thought it would be? She might be in for more than she bargained, including finding genuine love in the place she least suspected. BxE, AH

Ramble: This is another story with a really rich Edward. It incorporates some of the details from the Bachelor, and the characters from the book. Bella as a linguist is really interesting, along with some of the more insider info readers get from the beginning. A good love at first meeting story, that does not disappoint.
