Hey everyone! I want to dedicate this first campfire to Tarbecca for the tremendous effort she has put in over the past six years with the hundreds upon hundreds of fic rec’s she has searched for and shared here on ADF Fic Dive. Not only that, but managing the fic polls, contacting the authors and keeping it all organized and managed behind the scenes. Kudos and five stars to you, lady!
Let’s dive right in, shall we?
The Estuary (nursery of the sea) - new/wips

~Awww...Bella has some issues to deal with due to shallow people in her life being critical and judgmental of her outward appearance instead of loving her for who she is. You just want to reach out and hug her! Can Edward coax out the real her? Thank you, MissLiss15, for all the feels.

First Comes Love By: Lostatseaforever (also mentioned by trbuie on fic dive)
He smiled. "Notions of love and romance are all well and fine. But I'm afraid they only exist in fairy tales Miss Swan. When one grows up, these thingsbecomes clear. Then you can accept marriage for what it is, an arrangement of meeting each other's needs." A different era and spin on Twilight.
~A Victorian tale full of struggle, mystery and intrigue. Very well-written by Lostatseaforever, especially since English is not her first language! Keep up the great work!
The Breakers - newly completed fics
Little Boots & Biker Boy By: CiaraShayee
Under the Texas sun, bicycle tracks follow booted footprints through the dirt. A copper-haired biker boy would tail the owner of those little boots to the ends of the Earth if only she'd ask him to. He just can't help but dream of a day when she'll follow him, instead. A wedding, some picnic chairs, and an old friend might just be the nudge she needs.
~Wow! Cleverly ties in then and now and sweetly wraps it all together. CiaraShayee, this was awesome!

The Real Life of E A Masen By: Vancouver-Canuck-Girl
Edward Cullen - to most, he's a boring book editor but he's really an elusive romance novelist with an erotic flair. When he's not writing porn, I mean romance, he's just a guy who's married to his high school sweetheart and father of three teens.
~This funny, romantic, sweet Daddyward will make you laugh and cry as he lives through all the perils of parenting teenagers and using his romps with his sexy wife as inspiration in his 'romance' books.
