 AU/AH; Edward/Bella, rated M

You know, A Different Forest and Edwardville are totally underrated. You never know how much good stuff you’re missing until you post a rec thread, and someone’s e-mailing you back going, “Hey, I’ve got one!”

Still, though, you don’t really understand what they’re going on about until you have the story in front of you…and then you’re hooked.

For me, all it took was the summary: Bella is a British spy during World War II, acting as a rich man’s fiancé. She falls in love with Edward, but will she choose love over duty?

If that didn’t catch your attention, here’s part of the Prologue:

I arrived at the cathedral. My breath left my body in a whoosh as my eyes darted over the broken glass on the ground, the remains of beautiful stained-glass windows, and piles of rubble. There was a crowd gathering, gasping at what had happened to their beautiful church. I pushed past them, desperate to get inside.

I was held back at the door.

The man was shocked at my crazed wrestle to get past him. "Miss, no one is allowed to enter at this point—"

"I don't care! You don't understand, I have to find—"

I never did tell him who I had to find.

For at that moment, I saw the bodies.

LaSerenade creates an intriguing new Bella that is both unique and at the same time, still realistic. Of course, the idea of Edward sitting at a piano and playing his heart out to another man’s woman is just as intriguing.
