Summary
The night Margaret Hale gets shot in my original story The Rhythm of Life, so many things could have gone differently. I wanted one last look in this universe to answer this question: "What if John never made his train wreck proposal?"
So here we go again. One last time.

Summary
"Fake It Till You Make It" is a romantic comedy exploring the fake dating trope with a refreshing twist.
Margaret Hale needs a boyfriend. But not a real one, a fake one. Enter John Thornton. He's the perfect man for the job, except for one thing. He wants to date for real. No lies, no faking, and no mess. Together, can John and Margaret fake it until they make it?
Modern AU. Margaret Hale finds herself in need of a fake boyfriend for her cousin’s destination wedding and it seems that only one man is up to the task. The only problem is she hates John Thornton and he hates her. ( A fake dating trope for N&S because why not? This story world needed one. Crossposted on ff )

Summary
I grieved for my future self. Now that I felt this kind of relief flooding my body, my resolve cracked on the floor like glass, the pieces skidding under my own feet. I didn’t know how I would ever put it back together. But even more distressing, I didn’t know how I would be able to deny him. Our bond. That instinct within him and that had been growing in me infinitesimally each day I saw him, touched him, thought about him…
Because even though Emily had said theirs was triggered by a single moment, I had had a growing suspicion, no matter how much I tried to deny it, that ours was different. Gradual.
That, without even realizing it, I had stumbled into something I hadn’t meant to and was now caught in it. Like a web that fused to my own skin, indistinguishable.
And, finally, that any more than one more weekend with him would kill me, if I ever became a vampire. Would kill us. Swifter and harder and more agonizing than death at the hands of the Volturi could ever be.

OR an Eclipse re-write with everything we love: slow burn, angst, fluff, smut, and a new take on imprinting that isn’t gross. The first few chapters pull heavily from Eclipse, but the writing after those is primarily all my own!
