He could have chosen any female wolf in the room. Why did he have to choose me, the lone half-breed? *Drabble*

Steal: to take (another person's property) without permission or legal right and without intending to return it, to dishonestly pass off (another person's ideas) as one's own, or to take the opportunity to give or share (a kiss) when it is not expected or when people are not watching.

Northern Light by TwilightObsessed522
After recently losing her husband, Bella is finding it difficult to move on. But with a baby on the way, she knows she needs to. With the help of her friends and a gift left behind by her husband, Bella finds the strength she needs...and something more. All Human. BPOV. Rated M. 

Emerald City by Sprinkle of Fanfic 
She felt like she was drowning in Emerald City, but to him it was just another day. Drabble-ish. AH. Usual pairings. Rated M just in case.

Like Cracked Steel by OliviaKeating
Bella's older sister Alice tries to shield her from street life, but when Alice is incapacitated Bella takes matters into her own hands. That's when death finds her. He says his name is Hades, and they've met before.

Each week I will brave the treacherous waters of Fan Fiction for buried treasure. Below are the gems I've found this week!

Hello All!  I'm back from a lovely beach vacation.  Our crew survived road trips, multiple jellyfish stings, 2 ear infections, a fever and drunk husbands!  I'm calling it a success!

These are mostly new fics that are just starting out.  Looking forward to more!

By nature, all male species want to mark their territories. It's in their nature to try to keep their female safe and tag them as theirs. I wasn't an exception … until her. She drove me crazy. She tagged me as hers. And in return, I gave her my heart. All human. Rated for adult themes.

Safe Harbor by OzellaMarie 
After receiving unsettling news, Bella Swan has found herself in the small, quiet town of Safe Harbor, and the daunting task of saying goodbye to the only man she ever loved. But what happens when a secret threatens what she thought was true love and another walks into her life promising forever? A/H Edward/Bella Romance-Humor-Hurt-Comfort HEA Mature Content and Strong Language.

Bella gets a shock when she comes to Safe Harbor for her fiance's funeral.

Cabin Fever by jacklynlew 
After her father's accident, Isabella had rid herself of every reminder of his death, including her closest friends and family. But when her brother announces his engagement, she will be forced to confront what she had left behind; including the ex-boyfriend she had never been able to forget.  AH, Rated M for future lemons.

Just getting started.  Bella comes home and plays nice with her ex boyfriend.

New Friends, Old Problems by cailinbrigin
When Bella moves to England for university, she doesn't really know what to expect. But she definitely wasn't expecting this. Tall, dark and handsome... And he knows her name! It seems too good to be true and its only a matter of time before something goes terribly wrong in this real life daydream. The truth is you can't escape your life at home no matter how far you move away.

Bella moves to England and is unsure if she's made a terrible mistake!  Also, just getting started.

Broken Dreams & Battered Hearts by Butterfly Betty
Photographer Bella Swan loves everything about living in Hawaii. The beach, the surf, the warmth. Everything but the two weeks when Professional Beach Volleyball takes over. Now, she's been cast with the joy of capturing every moment with her camera. Only, a tall, auburn haired player isn't making it easy for her to stay professional. Cannon Couples. MA

Just one chapter so far. Perfect follow up to all of the Beach Volleyball I watched at the Olympics!

Special Delivery by Dalwynn
A change of scenery provides a fresh start as well as new opportunities for growth and healing. For one young woman, it might also provide the very thing she needs the most. Special thanks to MustangMel for the inspiration and beta-ing.

Loner Bella takes a liking to her Delivery Guy!

Sorry, No Flash Backs this week!  Happy Reading!
 

The games are over. The flags have been put away until the Winter Games in 2018. 

Come share what you liked best. Come share how much you hated NBCs coverage and how they are blaming millenials for their lack of viewership (when it was really based off their racist/sexist coverage that only showed parts they felt were of interest interspersed with TONS of commercials). 

Also how many people liked the nod at Mario Bros for the Tokyo games in 2020? Just me? Yeah, I figured as much.

Welcome to the Monday Morning Hot Guy Campfire. What better way to start your week than a hot guy?

Every Monday, I'm going to dedicate a CF to the Hot Guy of the Week.The catch? The CF can ONLY be about the current nominated guy. 

We all have different tastes in men, so please don't yuck anyone's yum.If you have a man you'd like to see crowned for the week, PM or hit me up on twitter (@ffcherry) with his name

Well, hello hello you beautiful people!

It's been a whole year since "Meet the Mate" contest was held and many contests since then have come and gone.

You guys were so responsive and gave us such wonderful things to read. We're still reading most of those. I'm so grateful to you all for your enthusiasm and support.

Well, I wanted to do another contest this year.

But for that, I have only the theme in my mind - the first time they say "I love you."

I still need:

1. Hosts apart from Sri - Found one! purpleC305ffn, welcome to the madness, love.
2. Secret Keeper. - Got TwiSNFan to say yes to this circus! 
3. Emergency Betas. - EdwardsFirstKiss, Ninkita and Kim Roland-Edwards
4. Judges. - *grinning from ear to ear* LyricalKris, BellaFlan, BoydBlog, 2old4fanfic, redtini, content1 and TheFicChick
5. Name of the contest. - P.S. I love you
6. Dates for the contest. - November second week, not quite decided specific dates.
7. Rules for the contest. - Any pairing goes, crossovers welcome too. Haven't nailed them down completely.
8. Word Limit. - 7k-12k
9. Banner maker. - Ipsita Chaudhary and Java Masta.
10. Validators - purpleC305ff, NKubie, Jennie Bo Bennie, Owlsarebirdstoo

I'm going to start working on these right now. Volunteers are very welcome for banner makers. I'm really struggling with them. Feel free to let me know if I've missed something else to organise. Let's get this ball rolling! 

In the meanwhile, I need suggestions for the name of the contest. This is where I need your help badly. I'm stumped.
Best I've got right now is "P.S. I love you contest." It was my husbands suggestion. So now you know how terribly stumped I am.

Please help a girl! Many many thank you! And welcome to another year of hopefully an awesome contest. 

Also, can we discuss what are some of the best contests you've seen and why you loved them so? Is it the theme or the word limit or the time for prep? What excites you about any contest?

P.S. Sorry I havent taken a ranger permission to do the post but I assure you I will find a million tags for it.

P.P.S. You guys are amazing! Thank you so much for pinning this!
