In Your Dreams by winterhorses
One mistake gives Edward the power to put anyone to sleep and search their memories, but there's a drawback: he must also sleep. When a conspiracy threatens to destroy the tenuous peace between vampire and humans, the Cullens must figure out how to get information from vampire-hater Isabella Swan. How will they uncover her secrets when she thwarts Edward at every turn?

Oh Jeez.  This one is just getting started and all hell has broken loose at the end of Chapter 2!  Looking forward to this bumpy ride!

My Laird's Bairn by StillDreaming85
Isabella is an English woman, married to a Scottish laird, living in a foreign land. Will she be able to find the peace and happiness that she so desperately seeks, or will their differences be too much for them to bear? **Sequel to My Laird**

Scottish baby on the way!

This week let's discuss our favorite movies from the 90's.

My Top 5 90's Movies:
Forrest Gump
The Shawshank Redemption
Amageddon
Seven
Goodfellas

2015 Fic Dive Story of the Year

To celebrate the 2nd Anniversary of the Fic Dive, I've compiled a list of our Favorite Fic Dive Stories as voted by the readers each month.  We found 169 new stories in the Fic Dive in last year!

BEFORE YOU VOTE
Consider going back and reviewing past Fic Dives.  I've dated each story so you can easily locate the summary for each story.  While going through the list I found that I'd forgotten so many great stories over the last year!  I'd hate to overlook a great fic, so do your research!!
To quickly link to past Fic Dives, click on the Fic Diving Tag on this post.

VOTING
You can select as many stories as you'd like.  
You only get to vote one time, so make sure you don't miss any!
(If you feel so inclined, you can vote from different devices, to vote multiple times.)

WRITE IN Vote
There will be a section to write in a story that may have been missed or maybe got really interesting after the initial monthly voting.  I know I have a couple to write in.  Share in the comments below who you're writing in to encourage other to write in as well.

Poll will close on Monday, July 27 at Noon Eastern.

We all know Fic Diving is a perilous adventure!  What stories have you been dying to see update?  Which have you wondered "what ever happened to???"  Some Fic Dive Stories have not updated one time since appearing here.   Which are you disappointed didn't make the list?

As always, THANK YOU, for making the Fic Dive so much fun!  

ETA: This link is wonky and I don't think the poll is working properly. Will let you know when it's fixed!  :(

We should be all good!  If you've already voted, please vote again, just to make sure you get counted!  Thanks!

There's a lot happening with the Fic Dive this week.  You'll be sick of hearing from me! 

 

Symphony of Bad Notes by b.krumova
When Isabella Swan walked out of the door seven years ago, she promised that she would only see Edward Cullen as he was laid to rest. Fate had other plans… Rated M (NC-17), for violence, sexual scenes and language. All Human; OOC; 

Firefly by cristinaN
She was dying and had accepted her fate. He was a lonely soul only existing, never truly living. He refused to let her die, and she refused to let him in.

Singing With Lucy by WeeKittyAndTAT
Little Lucy Swan is turning five and her birthday wish is to sing with hot country star Edward Cullen. When her momma wins tickets to see him in concert, will little Lucy's birthday wish come true? Banner by: FemmeCullen

A Sinner's Grace by MrzEdCullen
She wanted all of me, but I couldn't give her that. What I did give her was far too much, yet not enough. Having her walk back into my life could be my saving grace… if there's anything left to save.  

Concerto by Silque
Edward Cullen is a concert pianist at the top of his career. He's also a 107 year old vampire. Isabella Swan is the anti-socialite who wins a private concert with him in her home. AU, but canon pairings and characters otherwise. Rated M for strong language and adult situations.

Jilted by vampiregirl93
Jail time, first loves, bittersweet moments and kisses through the phone. She waits for his call because she's jilted, her heart still sings for the boy who only ever smiled for her. He committed crimes and she told lies. She loves him on accident, and he loves her forever. They didn't choose their secrets, they were born into this. AH
