Afternoon, y’all!
Don’t ya just love it when you read somethin’ and the first thing you wanna do when you’re done is shout it to the rooftops so everyone else will read it and love it just as much as you do?
It was almost a year ago that Wonderfully Bedazzled rec’d a fic by Maxigrumpling called The Bad Vampires Handbook on Facebook! Damned if that wasn’t one of the most hilarious fic I’ve ever read!

One thing’s for sure…I will be readin’ more of Maxi’s fics! Do yourselves a favor and check out these two, as well as the other 12 on her profile. They sound most intriguin’!
*Snaps fingers!* Oh, yeah! And if anyone feels like makin’ that girl a banner or two for her stories…
Happy Monday, y’all
Rita
Hi Rita. Happy Monday. I do love a “bad” Edward. “Toye” always comes my mind when I think that. But also “The Elusive Mr. Cullen” was pretty good as well. As you know, I love me some completed stories! Thanks so much bb. Hope you have a great week. 🙂
Oooh, don’t we all, Eewee darlin’! Toye was deliciously baaad LOL! The Elusive Mr. Cullen is one of those fab fics I keep savin’ for “a rainy day” but never seem to get around to actually readin’, dammit!
So many great Bad Boy fics, so little time to read them all!
Oh Rita! You HAVE to read The Elusive Mr. Cullen, but prepare thyself! It’s a killer. 🙂
Hmmm, I COULD reward myself with it for finishin’ today’s editin’ job for RF! Yes, that would be very good motivation LOL!
OK! It’s moved up into the READ NEXT category of my TBR!!!
HOLY.CRAP!
Just finished chapter 10 *THUD!* Looks like it’s gonna be an all day marathon with The Elusive Mr. Cullen ’cause ain’t no way I can stop until I get to the end!!!
Hang on tight. Please let me know when you’re done. I’m dying to know what you think.
Chapter 24: Oh God! The angst just ramped up to DEFCON1!!!
*Whimper!* Hold my hand, Eeewee darlin’! Iz skeerd!!!
You should be scared, very, very scared!
DONE! I can’t believe I survived that unscathed!!! Without givin’ away too much, OH MY FUCKIN’ GOOOODDDDD!!!!
So Rita, what did you think of Tanya? Good story, huh?
Tanya!? Does the Bates Motel ring a bell? That was some sick shizz LMAO!
LOL! I think I hear the Twilight Zone theme music in the background!
hahaha I’m such a slave driver! ~snort~
An Edward that manages to surprise you with his bad behavior…yes please! She Knew is moving to the top of my TBR list.
Great post Rita. Thank you!
A quick read at only 2 chapters,, Christa darlin’! I love ones shots, as you well know LOL! They give a good insight into an author’s style when you haven’t read anything of theirs before! They should call them Hooks instead of One Shots LMAO!
Thanks, Rita, delighted to hear from you! “She Knows” sounds VERY intriguing. You’re right about “hooks” instead of “one shots”, too.
I’ve just been re-reading (and finally writing reviews for) Bonne Foi by Amethyst Jackson. I’ll never forget how shocked I was to pick up this story early in my fanfic days and find this bad-boy vampire Edward! I was so grateful too when Ms. Jackson picked up this story after a long hiatus and finished it – I love it when that happens!

Now I must get back to my reading…
Renée
Bonne Foi was a great fic, Renee darlin’! I count it as one of the classics! Hell’n I love all her stories…wish she’d finish her WIPS, though. Last update was May 2013 for Cullen Enterprise, which I love love love!
Hi, Rita! Love to see you here again! I missed you! I´m very busy with my little baby (my daughter is 4 months now ❤ ) but I´m happy you keep posting, and happy to know form you… kisses
4 months already!?!?! Good Heaves, time sure does fly when you’re havin’ fun, Exaltada darlin’!
It’s always good to hear from you and I’m hopin’ you are enjoyin’ life with baby Blanca {{HUGS!!}}
yes, Rita, time fly and my baby (you remember her name! 🙂 ) is growing well. I´m tired but happy. Don´t want to return to my job at all!
xoxo
Of course, I remembered her name, hon! I AM her Auntie Rita, after all LOL!
When do you have to go back to work?
Hi, hun. Sorry for my English… I´ll try to explain it 😉 Well, in Spain we have a maternity leave of 16 weeks. Now I’m on vacation and I think I will ask leave without pay 2 or 3 months, not to let her to daycare so soon. It makes me want to cry when I see a little baby on a daycare.
They don’t stay little for long and you don’t want to miss a minute of it…I totally understand! Enjoy the 24/7 time with her while you can, Exaltada darlin’!
