A Servant Wife by shouldbecleaning
It certainly wasn't in his plans when he woke that morning but somehow, someway, Edward Masen left his farm one late spring morning to stock up on supplies with his children and came home with a new wife. Not a real wife, like the I'll love you to the ends of time kind of wife, but a servant who was also his wife on paper, kind of half of each.

Passion and Propriety by Elise de Sallier
There is absolutely nothing improper about the Vicar of Forkton's spinster daughter nursing the badly wounded Viscount Masen back to health. Isabella is far too sensible to develop feelings for a man of Lord Masen's wealth and position . . . a man who is determined to break the curse that has plagued his family for generations by letting his bloodline die out.
I Love You, I Know by LyricalKris
Bella's boyfriend of nine years dumped her at the Happiest Place on Earth wearing one half of a couple's themed t-shirt. Somehow, on one of the worst days of her life, she wound up sitting next to a man wearing the other half of her shirt, also wandering Disneyland alone and partnerless. It was a sign. Of what, neither of them knew.

The American Princess by BitterHarpy
With great power comes great responsibility. Something Prince Edward knows all too well. When his first choice for a bride is denied, he knows he needs to act fast to change the King's mind. Enter American bad ass actress extraordinaire, Bella Swan, the least suitable person for the role. But what happens when she turns the family dynamic and Edward's plan on its royal head?
It Takes a Village by Payton79
Nowadays, families come in all shades and forms. When pediatrician Edward meets the woman of his dreams, he gets more than he bargained for.

Sometimes, it takes a village...
Secrets & Wishes by CaraNo
Everyone has secrets, and everyone has wishes. We hope that the latter come true, and secrets...well, we tend to hope they're never unearthed.

supernormal by cupcakeriot
She is different. She is magic. And her life is unbelievably beyond normal - it's supernormal. Drabble-fic. M for language, violence, magic rituals, strange creatures, and some citrus.
