Disclaimer: I do not own twilight or any of the characters mentioned in the novels, sadly :'(

Born into a poverty stricken family, the prospects were that by the age of majority she would be a mother thrice over .However, out of the strict love and discipline her mother instilled in her Rosalie became a young lady full of promise and charm. With an abundance of shiny blonde hair and the biggest blue eyes brimming with innocence and charm, all of the local men had tried to gain her attention, but alas there was only one Rose was interested in; Jasper.

With his devilish good look and his sailors' charm, he could tease any naive young girl who was only too eager to believe she was special into his bed. Although, a well known womaniser and a philanderer with other men's wives, Jasper still had some saving graces, he owned his own house by hard work and was honest to the core.

There was only one flaw in this unlikely love story; Emmett, the son of the local butcher and Rose's betrothed. Bound by necessity and the promise of security for her eldest daughter, Esme was assured that this was the only way forward of preventing Rose from being another fallen woman living on the streets, without a penny to her name. Emmett while being the heir to one of the most prestigious and well off families in the neighbourhood was far from a gentleman, he liked to spend his days gambling or adding another notch to his bedpost. Despite being passingly handsome and not altogether revolting, Emmett was Rose's worst nightmare, arrogant, brash, rude and obnoxious he was just another reason she wanted to escape. Their impending wedding and the marital duties that she would have to attend to when the time was right disgusted her; she only wanted one thing, true love.
