Breaking the barrier

Last night, Desperation broke it's single day hit record. The previous record was 408 hits in a single day. Yesterday, we broke the 500 mark. Desperation had 528 hits in a single day and 161 new visitors, which is another record.

This is fabulous. I love it and I'm not complaining at all, but if people love this story, WHY ARE THEY NOT REVIEWING MORE? LOL! UGH! I love getting the notifications that people love my story enough to add it and me as an author to their alerts and favorites, but I'd love to know what the readers think of each chapter. I'd love to hit double digits for a single chapter when it comes to reviews.

SO, IF YOU ARE READING PLEASE I BEG OF YOU, LEAVE ME SOME LOVE!!!

Chapter 12~2 steps forward; 1 step back

I'm so sorry for my continued evilness. It won't be much longer I promise. Jasper is just determined to make this perfect for Bella and completely different than anything he's done in the past. I'm just glad that someone walked in, I do believe he'd been quite upset with himself.

The song in this chapter that Jasper sings to Bella is Angels by Robin Thicke

Loving Lady Muse

So, just to update, chapter 11 is finished and being proofed/beta'd at the moment. YAY!

Chapter 10~Good Vibrations

I loved this chapter. Miss Bella was completely tore up.

The response was once again amazing and completely inspiring to me. Which means that Chapter 11 is already well underway. If all goes well it will be posted late tonight or early in the morning.

Story Rec, Be My Biggest Fan by Crash Hale.

I came across this one shot this morning and I DEMAND that you stop what you are doing and read it NOW!!

Be My Biggest Fan is a one shot by Crash Hale.
This one shot was inspired by the song 'One Night Stand' by 'Hinder'. Jasper shows Bella what she's been missing while they are both in Texas for their own reasons. All Human. Jasper POV. Warning: It's all one huge LEMON.

Let me tell you, Jasper fans out there, THIS ONE IS HOT!! Like Supernova HOT!!

Thanks Katie aka starfish422! Katie is the author of the fabulous Edward and Jasper Story entitled Over the Top! I love it. Beware graphic guy on guy sex, but it's a great story!

Holy Cannoli!!

It's been 2.5 hours since the new chapter hit the web and my story stats have EXPLODED!!

I always check right before and right after posting and today I had 7 hits. Now 2.5 hours later I have 167 hits! 160 hits in 2.5 hours, OMFG!! I'm ecstatic.

Until today the record was a 132 hits and 47 visitors. The 160 has not only blown the hits record to bits, but now we've blown the visitors record away with 56 visitors today.

I love you all!! Thank you so much for reading my story. Now, if only I could get you to review it more.

BTW, if it was recommended to you by someone let me know. I'd like to thank them.

Chapter 9~Mean Girls

Ok, so the chapter has been proofed, edited and published. I'm really proud of it. I made one of my proofers gag. LOL!! It was just too funny.

The chapter is named after the song Mean Girls by Sugarland. High school girls are mean, but can you imagine how mean it would get if they were fighting over him?


The pictures of Bella's Jewelry. The bracelet and anklet are the same.


This is my Leah. Isn't she gorgeous?





Chapter 9 is finished

Is finished and being proofed. As I type.

Chapter 9 troubles

Chapter 9, like chapter 8, is giving me troubles. My proofers think it sounds great, but to me it just doesn't.

Parts of it feel like I've skipped over stuff I shouldn't have and parts feel like I'm droning on.

I had hoped that I would be able to publish Chapter 9 tonight, but I'm not too hopeful.

Chapter 5~Kisses and Cameras

Bella's Outfit. I'd love to have this one for myself. LOL!

DBS-9 Tanya Thursday


Floor plan for Jasper's trailer.



Chapter 4~Misunderstandings and Misconceptions

So, we finally get to see Jasper in his element. Here's some pictures from a race and a video as well.

Chapter 3~Hey Jasper

This chapter was really fun to write. I'm a musician or famous so for me, it was definitely a step out of the box.

The songs in this chapter are...

Kerosene by Miranda Lambert
A Place in this World by Taylor Swift
Hey Stephen by Taylor Swift

Now I know that 3 songs a concert does not make, but I'm only listing the one's I mention in the chapter.

There will be many more songs to go along with upcoming chapter

Chapter 2~Showtime

Not quite lemony, but definitely a bit tangy. Below are pictures of the characters and the outfits I've designed for them. I use the Polyvore site to do my Desperation collection.

Chapter 1~I'm in Trouble

In this chapter Bella Swan meets her new siblings, twins Emmett and Alice McCarty, and their friends Edward & Rosalie. Rose's brother Jasper shows up and blows Bella away. He's hot and he's got her hot and bothered.
