Secret Santa written by: MeteorOnAMoonlessNight
Summary: Depressed over thinking she'll be fired before the holidays, Bella decides to get drunk at the company party. Woken the next morning by Rose texting her to look at Facebook posts from the night before, she realizes exactly how drunk she got—and it's bad. She and Santa were very naughty, but the worst comes when Bella realizes exactly who was playing Santa.'18 TFFA 2nd Fave Ficlette
Ramble: A not so secret, secret Santa. Edward is the boss, and tires to keep human resources fro firing people over the holiday. He and Bella leave the party together. Bella thinks she will be fired, and in the end she is fired, but it works out for the better in the long run.
A place for me to keep track of the stories I read. I don't mean to offend anyone with my rambles or posts. Before I go on further; I would like to thank the authors for putting up their stories.
A quick warning. Some of my rambles (or even the way I label the posts) may contain spoilers. The rambles are my way of leaving myself a trail to follow in the future, if I want to reread the story (there are some that I read again and again and again...)

At Sunset

Angela has other plans for her when she notices that the hot lifeguard Edward is checking Bella out. When an accident brings them face to face will Bella let go of her past insecurities and live in the moment? AH/AU Edward/Bella
Ramble: The good old spring break story. With lifeguard Edward. Bella runs into trouble, and Edward comes in to rescue her. They end up spending time together. In the end, it isn't super clear what will happen beyond spring break, but the two couples decide on enjoying the time they have together.

In My Brother's Shadow
In My Brother's Shadow written by: 2brown-eyes
Summary: As a child, Bella always felt second best when in it came to her twin brother, Emmett. Now years later, an accident has brought her back to Forks. Will she be thrust back into her brother's shadow? Or will she be finally be seen as something other than Emmett's sister.
Ramble: Ok, so this ramble will probably have some spoilers, but wow. It has been a few days since I've read this story, and man, oh man, I still remember most of what happened (at least I think I do). Emmett and Bella are siblings. Charlie is able to connect with Emmett more than Bella, and he just brushes her aside. Eventually, Bella and Renee leave for sunnier places. Renee is diagnosed with seasonal depression. Renee dies before she married Phill, though they were in a serious relationship, and Alice is his daughter. Bella is contacted when Charlie and Emmett are in an accident. Skipping over things, Edward is in trouble with his parents, and in general because of street racing. He and Bella start to hang out with each other. Bella learns a lot more about her brother during her stay in Forks. Later, we find out that there is some undercover work going on. By the end of the story, there are a few characters that I wanted to go in and smack, though things do work out for the most part. The abuse tag is there, for some of the violence that was hinted at, and the fact that there is some abuse, as Carlisle said, not all abuse is physical.

Give Me a Sign
Give Me a Sign written by: Rochelle Allison
Summary: Edward's a doctor at Atlanta's Piedmont Hospital and Bella's the construction worker always holding him up in traffic. But what happens when their paths cross elsewhere?
Ramble: I'll admit I had a hard time keeping a straight face while reading this story. I mean, Bella working at a construction site is kind of funny. To me, Bella is usually more on the clumsy side, and there are so many places and incidents that could be dangerous for people like her/me. Edward is a doctor, Bella works at a construction site, Alice and Jasper own a food truck.

Someone Else
Someone Else written by: MissLiss15
Summary: Bella feels more comfortable in the virtual world than she does in the real world. After meeting Edward in a chat room one night, they begin to develop a friendship. But once he sends her his picture, she wishes she could be someone else.
Ramble: Bella is a little larger than the regular Bella. She meets someone in a chat room, and enjoy talking to them. But when asked for a picture, she just wasn't comfortable and ended up sending a picture of her roommate instead. Edward and Bella eventually meet and their relationship develops from there. The story ends with a future take. The title might be a reflection of how Bella often wished to be someone else, especially at the beginning of the story.

Winter In The Air
Winter In The Air written by: KitsuShel
Summary: When her mother, Mrs. Kringle, guilts Bella into coming home to the North Pole, will the winter in the air make her decide to stay? Can she bring herself to face the green-eyed elf that haunts her heart? Jingle All The Way 3rd Place Judge's Winner. *edited summary*
Ramble: This is a very fun and different spin on a Christmas story. In this story, I'm not that crazy about Mrs. Kringle. While at first, it seems like she is trying to help, by the middle/end of the story, it seems like she was working under a lot of assumptions. A cute couple is broken up due to misunderstandings, though one was ready to give up their birthright to be with the one they love.

Satisfaction
Satisfaction written by: Dix E. Normous
Summary: Bella awaits Edward to connect in a night of passion. This is a lemon, read at your own discretion.
Ramble: The summary says it all. Sometimes people just need to read a quick lemon. While there isn't much of a story/background as some of the other stories, this is a quick lemon.

Old City Bar
Old City Bar written by: Iadorepugs
Summary: On Christmas Eve anything is possible, perhaps even a miracle. How do we know the effect our actions will have, even years later? Edward and Bella are going to find out what results from an act of kindness.
Ramble: Edward owns a bar. For some reason when I clicked into the story, I thought Bella would own the bar. Yeah, maybe I had a different story in mind when I clicked in? A cool Christmas story based on a song. There is a little Christmas miracle and we see the start of a new tradition being started.

No doubt
No doubt written by: BiazinhaGomes
Summary: A misunderstanding almost leads to a break up, that can only be fixed with the two thing they do better: sex and fighting
Ramble: This story starts out in the middle of everything. We slowly follow Bella as she goes through the day, and by the end, we find out what happened. Super short read, that frames the whole storyline very well. Perfect for a quick steamy read. :)

In the Shadows
In the Shadows written by: Hoodfabulous
Summary: Born into a life of power and privilege, Edward wants nothing more than to pledge his loyalty to his family, especially to his father, Carlisle. Drugs is money, money is power, and power is everything. Or is it? OS. Written in 2014. Repost. Banner by Obsessedtwibrarian
Ramble: I'll have to admit that I was a little thrown off by this story. From the label of the characters in the story, I expected things to go a little different. Though it did make sense at the end of the story. Maybe I was thinking a lot about The King and I? This story reminded me a lot of 'we kiss in the shadows'. So maybe the way this story turned out wasn't that big of a surprise.
