Summary: Bella was thought to have died shortly after giving birth to Nessie, and Edward gave up shortly afterwards, knowning no better. After 17 years away, thinking her parents were be dead, Nessie returns to Forks to find the two people she thought she had lost.
I wasn’t a fan of FanFic until Wide Awake and after that I immersed myself in this new world and can’t seem to leave. Even though I was fascinated with the Bella/Edward Saga I wanted to read about Nessie. And I was sadly disappoint how almost every writer made her this immature, dependent on mommy and daddy irritating little girl.
Just as I was giving up I found Horizons, the story was simply different. What if Bella did not survive the change? What if Edward killed himself leaving his baby girl with his family after Bella died? I was instantly engaged in this story from just the description alone. I’ll never forget that night thinking I will read a chapter then head to the movies. Within the first chapter I felt the guilt and pain Nessie was feeling, the wound was so deep I wish I could comfort her (I know its fiction but it GOT ME!) and yes I cried.
With Rosalie and Emmett raising her in South America she was determined to meet Charlie and live in Forks to find some form of peace. There are some amazing moments when she visits her parents graves that simply breaks your heart and meeting Charlie for the first time. But at the same time there is a new mystery the Cullen family must resolve with the Volturi, Ben (You’ll have to read to figure out who Ben is!) and of course Jacob who has not been in Forks since the day Bella died.
...I've got to say I'm intrigued with this from Tammy's description, and I am so not usually interested in Nessie stories. I hope you'll give this story a chance (as I will) and report back to us your thoughts!
P.S. isn't that banner gorgeous? I am mesmerized by it. That's a perfect representation of Nessie.

I really do need to read this, Tammy has been bragging it up since May. She's been completely consumed by the storyline and that tells me it's excellent. Great review, Tam, and yes, WW, I agree that the banner is amazing!
