When Alec finds his mate, Jane is left alone for the first time in her life. She begins the search for her own companion and finds one...in a human. Will Jane give love a chance, or will fear drive her away? Femmeslash
When I first read the summary of the story, I was immediately interested. Jane has always been a favorite character of mine and I always wanted to read a story about her. It is complete and it has outtakes that go along with it.
Jane's brother, Alec, has mated with Demetri and ever since she has felt lonely. Jane's started to get short tempered, using her powers against anyone she comes across. Aro, seeing her distress, suggests that she try finding her own mate, a human since she has not shown interest to anyone on the guard.
One of the things I enjoyed the most about the story was Jane and Aro's relationship, it is more like a father/daughter relationship. It gives more depth to the characters of the Volturi, which I wish canon would have done. One of my favorite parts of the story is a Jane's description of how they spend time together.
It made her understand a little better why Isabella had so regretted leaving her father Charlie behind in Washington after her change. Jane had always adored Aro, from the moment he had snatched her from the flames of her funeral pyre, but he had been her master and she his guard. Now, he was her…father (the word still felt odd to her mind and her lips, though it was getting easier), and she was relishing a kind of parental attention that she had never known or at least, that she could remember.
The times with him she enjoyed the most with him were after he had tired of their games and they sat, quiet and relaxed, on a shaded hillside that abutted the Volturi’s property in Volterra. Aro would pull her into his arms, stroking her hair absently, and they would talk of inconsequential things…as well as issues that were starting to arise when she was close to Caia.
Presenting LFC's Hotstuff's work. Walk With me Edward and Bella were both running away from their bitter and horrid pasts. Edward was devastated by an incident that robbed him of his legs and she was hurt by the man she loved and trusted. Both were not ready for each other when their paths crossed.
Hey guys it's Tyggy!
So, This story, is actually in the process of being reviewed on The writer's coffee shop by me, so it's a waiting game for it to appear. But until then, I get to place my opinion of the fic on our blog.
This story, although it appears a little far fetched, turns out to be so much more realistic than you can imagine. The author LFC_Hotstuff, brings you into her realm of fiction, where not everything or everyone is perfect, and things can change at the blink of an eye. It's utter fan fiction brilliance and I can not begin to inform you of how she drew me in just the first few chapters. I was so in love with this story that i actually stalked her to FanfictionFreedomwriters.com where more of her chapters reigned. Her writing style is FLAWLESS. You may call me biased, but check out the fic, you’ll understand.
Unlike most authors who stray away from the issue called a PLOT. This author sticks with it, and sticks with her heart no matter where her readers want her to go. This fic has everything going for it: Fluff, Angst, Dark, Smut. Anything you can imagine in this fic, it possess, and is beautifully written and blended. If you like an out of the box fic, this is a must read. I wouldn't recommend anything I wouldn't love. Just like I loved it, I’m sure you will too.
How often do you come across a story where Edward’s imperfections doesn’t just stop at his brooding? This author’s version of vampire Edward caught me off guard. I’ve never read a fic where a vampire has a disability. I was skeptical at first. I thought I was going into another fluff filled story where Bella describes the color of her own eyes as Edward gazes into them or A story where Bella gushes over how beautiful Edward‘s skin is in the light. I even thought the idea was ludicrous. ‘A disabled vamp? Yeah right’…But I couldn’t have been more wrong. The author’s portrayal of Edward’s past had me glued to my computer screen, and it was only the first chapter. In this story, Edward actually gets the chance to go off to war. Like many soldiers he too became a casualty.
“My commander ordered us to move across enemy lines when the left side of the flank was taken out. Serious blast and ear splitting rapid fire was all I could hear when the order was given to start our advancement. As I stepped under heavy fire, I crisscrossed the field with confidence I didn't feel. My gear was heavy behind my back and my rifle weighty in my tired hands as I the left side of the field with several soldiers I had come to respect. It was too late when I realized that I had stepped on a landmine. It all happened so fast, I could only vaguely remember the explosion, the ringing in my ears, the sparks flying from under me and the fragments of my lower limbs sprawled on the ground.”
From that accident and so on, Edward was never the same. Although, his story is heart breaking, it’s also heartwarming. After decades of brooding and concentrating on all his disability, Edward is dead set on the thought that he is meant to be alone for eternity. On a night where his loneliness had become too strong to bear, Edward had given in to his urges but couldn’t bring himself to continue. He knew that something was missing.
That missing piece is Bella Swan. When she and Edward find each other, it’s more than love at first sight. It’s two souls for two different worlds bonding. She’s sees him for more than just his disability. If it weren’t for the fact that Edward reminds her of his disability I doubt she would even pay attention. Like with every love story comes angst. But it’s not what you expect. You will be introduced to new and exciting characters, even some that you will love to hate. This story brings everything an avid fan fiction reader craves.LCF has an ability to mindfuck her readers, when you think she's going in one way, her directions change and your jaw is slacken, because she surprises you at every turn. Enjoy the reads sweets, I did, and I still continue too.
Enjoy...
SammieLynnsMom: I'm good, how are you? Just an fyi, if I go MIA for a few minutes it's probably because my toddler needs something. She's playing with her kitchen for now, so she should be good.
Day: Im fine ;) No that's fine, Mom first author second! I get it
SammieLynnsMom: Absolutely! I love writing, my kids are my world, so they're always above all.
Day: So tell me where did you get the idea for this story?
SammieLynnsMom: Honestly, it really just came to me one day. My girls were napping, and I had passed out on the couch, and just had this dream that basically turned into the last scene of Chapter 1 where Bella called Edward frantic. When I woke up, it just stuck with me...a lot, especially as a mom myself. What i didn't know at the time, was there was a news story very similar with a little boy named Seth who had been kidnapped and his step-mom was the number one suspect. Someone mentioned it when I posted Ch 2 or 3, and I actually looked back and realized I had fallen asleep during the Oprah show that featured it. So I kinda wonder if that had something to do with it too.
Day: Wow! What motivates you to write the most?
SammieLynnsMom: Writing has been something I've always loved to do. When I was eight I lost my father, his death was sudden and tragic, and of course, my mom rushed me and my siblings to a therapist. Eventually, the Dr. realized I would prefer to write my feelings, so he suggested that I keep a journal and just write when I fel like I needed to get it all out. So I've been writing for a while, but never really thought to publish any of it. When I started Blind Intentions, my youngest daughter had been born recently and it was not an idealistic birth for me, so it was my way of focusing my attention elsewhere. So I would say that motivates me now, along with my readers. I adore all of them, and every week I push myself to continue to make sure they're getting the best version of my story that I can give them.
Day: Did you have any concerns with how your readers would take the plot?
SammieLynnsMom: Yes and no. I knew going into writing that Edward and Tanya being married would turn some off, but I've been really lucky that my readers never really flamed over it. I've only been writing ffn for about six months, but I've been reading, in the fandom, for almost two years...so I knew what was more accepted than not. However, the plot has never changed as a result.
Day: So, is the story that you are posting now the original idea you had or have you tweaked it a bit?
SammieLynnsMom: Still the original idea. In some areas I've expanded so they weren't glossed over, but so far, nothing has really changed from what I originally saw.
Day: Many author just wing the story after they have a certain idea, do you do that or do you follow a outline?
SammieLynnsMom: I don't have an outline, and I've tried making one and I never stick to it. I know all of the biggest and most dramatic plot points and how they tie together, but a lot of the day-to-day stuff I don't know until I sit down to write.
Day: Did you have any inspiration for the characteristics of your Edward?
SammieLynnsMom: Not anyone specifically, no. I think of Edward as a father, and a man, who took the easy way in his life. Now that it's cost him everything, he's strong enough to realize he didn't need that easy route, and that with time, and consistency, he can achieve what he wanted the whole time.
Day: Out of All the chapter you have written which one has been the hardest by far?
SammieLynnsMom: Hands down, Nathan! Everytime I write his scenes or he has a "Jimmy" episode I have to detach or I think of one of my girls. I'm essentially writing my worst nightmare when I write his character.
Day: And the Easiest?
SammieLynnsMom: Esme. She is my mother-in-law, and I have almost a decade of experience there, so slipping into her character is simple.
Day: Has your story won any awards?
SammieLynnsMom: I just won an Avant Garde award for Best Shock Value and that was really amazing. I knew I was nominated, and had made it to Round 2, but I was up against such amazing stories that I was just thrilled to be nominated. A friend pinged me on gchat to say congratulations and I was like "For what?" She told me and I just smiled, it was also my birthday so it made it all the more sweeter. The response to this story has been far more than I ever expected and I thank everyone who reads it, because all of my readers are amazing!
Day: How does it feel to know you have so many readers that love this story?
SammieLynnsMom: Pretty amazing. The support and love I've been shown, has been really awesome. When I started writing it was to get through a very difficult time in my life, and thought to myself if I got 10 reviews that would be cool. When I hit 100 I was like "WOW!' When I hit 1,000 I was speechless. I've met so many amazing women, and some who have shared their own excruciatingly painful stories of their own. It's very humbling.
Day: How does it feel to be fangirled over?
SammieLynnsMom: I don't know if I've ever been fangirled over, but when people tell me how much they enjoy reading and what the story means to them, it's a surreal experience. It's really humbling to know what others take from my words, and I adore them all.
Day: Who where your betas for the story? are you close with them?
SammieLynnsMom: I started with Beth, who is amazing and recently started a new job, so I brought to my team Katelyn. I'm very close to Katelyn and I swear wants to beat me over the head after every chapter. Commas are my weakness and she knows it best of all!
Day: And You're pre-readers, who i must say i'm absolutly jealous of, What is thier role in the process?
SammieLynnsMom: I have two main pre-readers. Kimberly, who is probably my closest fandom best friend, and she knows all. She has been there since the beginning and is generally the ones there when I need someone to talk me off a ledge. Devonmaid is my second, who is newer to pre-reading for me, but only knows what I give her. She helps me see if anything seems confusing for where we are at the story. I have a nasty habit of assuming the readers know more than they do, at the time. Trisha, originally started pre-reading for me, but had some medical problems pull her away from the fandom for a little while. I give her and her husband full credit for all of the cop talk, because her husband is a dective and helped me there. Devonmaid is actually the inspiration for Dr. Devon, Edward's therapist, because one night she played therapist to Edward's character and in a few hours, had hashed out A LOT of the issues brought forward in therapy. I give A LOT of credit to my pre-readers and my betas, for keeping me straight and on point, because I tend to be a little wordy at times.
Day: How many chapter are you going to have in the story? Is it close to being finished?
SammieLynnsMom: When I first started I thought 20 chapters...jokes on me! It'll probably be closer to 30, and I can't imagine it going over 35. I hope, anyways.

Blind Intentions by SammieLynnsMom Summary:When Edward & Bella's son, Nathan, goes missing it turns their lives upside down. This is the journey they take to find him, in the process realizing everything isn't always as it seems.
Hello All *waves* Day here Back with a new Review! So Blind Intention...This Story is everything that is right with Fluff & Angst. Yes maybe the Edward and Bella movie a bit slow but that's the magic. This story will have you choked up in tears. So we Can Start at The Begining. Edward is Married to Tanya. Edward goes to Work. Tanya is Suppose to take Edward & Bella's son Nathan To the bus stop. Edward and Bella had a one night stand, which produced Nathan. They tried to make a relation ship work but Edward Mother Esme, who in this story is a complete bitch i might add, makes Bella out to be a Gold Digger. Thus Edward and Bella don't work out and Edward Marries Tanya. Tanya Takes Nathan to the bus stop but this si where things get interesting, Nathan is kidnapped. The story revolves around Edward and Bella trying to find their son and each other.
One thing that really stood put about this story is the waty Esme is portrayed. She is a HUGE bitch! Going as far as suing Bella for Soul Custody of Nathan. (She lost btw)
Another thing is Edward like always is a Momma's boy, but this leads for him to have problems with Bella.
Thier son Nathan is another thing that keeps you on edge. Nathan and Jimmy *shivers* I swear i choked up during chapter 8, and everytime that boy slips and changes.
As always she gives lengthy updates and updates often. Its a beta'd story so no errors and its an easy read. This is truly a story that Will capture you heart!
It is mostly told in a EPOV (but no one really has a problem with that.
The story also has a couple of outakes (multiplepov)
