Ethics Be Damned

Ethics Be Damned written by: krazyk85

Summary:

Bella Swan is a 28 year old woman who is a narcotics detective for the Seattle Police Department. Bella is assigned to go undercover as a high school student to bring down a massive drug ring fronted by the elusive Drug Lord Aro Volturi. Bella soon finds herself falling for her English teacher Edward Masen...

Edward Masen is instantly attracted to this new student, but can't pursue a relationship with a young girl.

Will these two keep things in perspective or will their ethics be damned?

Based loosely on 21 Jumpstreet and Never Been Kissed

Ramble: Lots of twists and turns in this story. The plot is really well developed, and flows really nicely. Part of me is still wondering what happens to Bella and Alice at the end of the case, what had to be done, and how the investigation went. Romance is very well balanced with solving a case. I really like a line that was spoken towards the end of the story 'Romance is not an idea, but a state of mind'. One reason being, because Edward taught that to his students in his class, but just how true that statement is. A pretty long story, but the length is filled with an attention grabbing story that keeps readers glued to their screens.

Hooters & Peckers

Hooters & Peckers written by: mylittlebakersdozen

Summary:

Store clerk Edward deals with his boss, a flirtatious girlfriend, and some interesting customers during his shift at the local adult toy shop.

**2nd Place Overall Winner in the Pick Your Own Adventure contest!**

Ramble: The title is the name of the shop. Tanya is the owner of the shop, and Bella the girlfriend. It was written for a contest, and I have to say, that the words that were chosen were used very well in the story. Safe to say, that readers will get a good laugh out of Edward's reaction.

Grab a boob day

Grab a boob day written by: ronjarose

Summary: title says it all. it is about how Edward finds out that it is - grab boob day - and will use it in every way with his girlfriend Bella. ONESHOT

Ramble: It is about at day, as the title says. No surprises or anything. The story itself starts out a little bit before the day starts, but pretty much ends that day. A lot of citrus.

I'm Too Sexy written by: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: "It was the face any male model in the world would trade his soul for" Eclipse . Alice is having a fashion show. How will she get Edward to agree to model and what happens when Emmett finds out? Canon.

Ramble: Vamps cashing out on a bet that most of them forgot all about. A little more background is given about the Edward, Bella, and their daughter, and how the family is split around this time. The cost of the bet, is for Edward to model some of Alice's newest creations. Before he would agree though, she threatens that Bella would probably do it, but not liking the response, he agrees.

Cruel to be Kind

Cruel to be Kind written by: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: Jealous Bella can't get over her feelings for her best friend, Edward, who happens to be her ex-Dom. Will he move on and replace her? Lemony-goodness!

Ramble: In the beginning of the story, things were a little on the confusing side when it came to the different perspectives, and who each one was focusing on. Later, we find out that Edward was acting for Bella to let go of him, and they later come out to talk about it, and find out what really happened on a fuller scale.

If Angels Cry

If Angels Cry written by: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: Going from friends to more can be complicated, but it can also be easy. Sometimes, life can be a fairy tale, even if it has low points. E/B, AU/AH, fluff.

Ramble: There seems to be a lot in this story. Kind of similar to the story that is here right before this story, but instead of focusing on the beginning, where the relationship is being developed, this story is more about life after. What might happen, and after a time jump, what happens as they get older.

Edward Gives Me Fever

Edward Gives Me Fever written by: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: Nerdy Bella has always had a crush on her best friend Edward; he's always seen her as just a friend. What will Bella do to show him how she feels?

Ramble: A good old childhood friends who feel more for each other than they care to admit. Mix in some other friends who have been watching from the side lines, a plan or two later and they both realize that they belong together after one or two misunderstandings. While this story follows this pattern, it also adds a few twists that make it quite interesting.

His Word is Good

His Word is Good written by: jadedandboring for: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: Bella's friends are convinced Edward isn't faithful to her because he's always on the road. What will it take to prove to them he always has been, and always will be, true to Bella?

Ramble: Kind of weird that I feel like one of the characters in the story.... Towards the end, Bella's recollection of waking up partly the first time is hazy, which is just like how I am feeling when thinking about what happened to lead Bella into the hospital... Other than that, this was a pretty good story about a long distance relationship, and how friends can cause a lot of pressure in that relationship.

Breaking the Fixation

Breaking the Fixation written by: Jukeboxcontest

Summary: Edward didn't want to be a bodyguard for a spoiled rotten rock star any more than Bella wanted to be babysat. Getting exactly what you didn't want can be a good thing.

Ramble: Edward enters the story as a protector/hired bodyguard. It is interesting to read about Bella and Edward being told similar things when discussing this one assignment. Mike acts as the catalyst in the whole thing, playing the role as the crazy obsessive fan of the band.
