TwiCarol's Fic Rec


Underexposed by daisy3853

Jasper/Bella

Summary - When Jasper walks into her photography classroom, Bella knows nothing of his broken past. All she knows is what she feels: an immediate connection to a beautiful stranger. Rated M for language and violent themes. AH.

Just a quick note from the Author - this story was originally written for the For the Love of Jasper contest. If you've already read the o/s, that's still chapter one. The continuation picks up with chapter 2. This story deals also deals with physical abuse, so if you're sensitive please be cautious.

What can I tell you about this story? So many things come to mind, but all I really want to say is this... YOU.HAVE.TO.READ.THIS.NOW! Just click on the link above and go. You will not be sorry, I promise. Okay, okay, I'll tell you a bit more about it, but then seriously... go read it. I found this fic by accident on Saturday and I am so thrilled that I did. It is a beautifully written story, that will take your heart and squeeze it so hard that you won't be able to breathe properly. Each chapter starts out in the present with BPOV, then goes into JPOV with flashbacks from his childhood. I also the like the photography theme that runs through the story and it is what brings Jasper and Bella together in the first place. Very original and unique. The Jasper in this story is the ultimate flawed hero. He is so tortured and broken, that all you want to do is hold him and protect him and make everything alright. When you read everything that he goes through in his childhood and what he endures to protect his sister Rosalie, you will be awestruck and more than a little heart-broken. Bella is lovely in this fic and is perfect for this Jasper. You will love Rosalie and Charlie, and especially Garrett, who the author has created into a wonderful character, who is a rock for Jasper and Rosalie in a time when they so desperately need it. I really hope you enjoy this story as much as I have. It is truly special.
