Sumary: When the authorities fail to solve the mystery behind the tragic deaths in her family. Bella approaches a secret clan of detectives to help solve her case, only to discover the hidden depths of her family's life and a deadly secret that haunts her world.
To be honest, I'm not usually a Carlisle/Bella kinda girl...well, alright, not as much as I am Jasper or Edward. And, I have to say, that December.Eclispe is the author that made me love the paring. She brought me into the Carlisle/Bella world with her first fic, Beyond the Broken Scars, and has kept me firmly ensconced within it with the sequel and now with this little gem of awesomeness.
This is completely AU, roles have been changed, factions added, intrigue and murder and mystery and sexual tension and tension in general and all sorts of awesome Carlisleiness.
I would love to harp on about this fic, I could literally write pages and pages about it. But one of the biggest and greatest things about this is the mystery...and I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.
But I can tell you that this is a well rounded, well thought out, well written fic. Incredibly so, in fact. It’s a fantastic read, one that kept me on the edge of my seat and dying for the next chapter. I literally bounce and happy dance in my seat when I see an update. Now, granted, I'm generally highly excitable, but I have limits and happy dancing for fics is only reserved for a choice few. This being one of them.
The plot is what makes this dark, and gives it its home here at the Darkest Temptations. Bella’s attempts to find answers to her mother and sisters murder only land her further and further into danger and provide more questions than answers. I love this fic and every chapter just makes me love it more. It also makes me want to capture the author, set her up in my attic and make her write for me and get the chapters faster...but then, even if she just handed me the whole book I would be wanting more.
Her Carlisle is brilliantly written, she really captures his struggle and emotions and gives us more and more glimpses into his character as the story unwinds. It's a wonderful look into Carlisle's psyche, a real pleasure to read.
I would suggest this to anyone and everyone, even if you’re not a C/B fan this is one that you should at least check out. It’s an awesome introduction to a new paring if you’ve never read them before. And for all those Carlisle lovers out there...run, don’t walk! Get clicking, reading and leave some love!!
That is all...
