By writing a letter to Seargent Masen Bella Swan simply intended to do a good deed. After hearing from her friend and Sgt. Masen's sister Alice that his girlfriend Tanya broke up with him while he was in Afghanistan serving his country, she grabs a pen and writes him a letter. But what starts out as a normal correspondence between pen pals, soon turns into a heart-warming romance. The letters get sweeter and dirtier and emails are added to respond quicker. But the fact remains that Bella's job as a high school teacher keeps her in the States while Edward is stuck in Afghanistan. Can the two maintain their relationship while he's overseas? And what will happen once Edward returns back home... if he returns back home?!

Um...can I get one of those ShamWow's over here, please? *holds up hand in the air like a child asking the teacher permission to speak* The lemons are H.O.T! But besides the steamy hook-ups, this story was well developed, realistic, and made my heart soar with all the love Bella and Edward send to each other. Coming Home has everything one could want in a good story: wit, fluff, and so many moments that will leave you either crying or laughing and always wanting more! You can tell right off the bat that this isn't a normal relationship as they talk through e-mails, phone calls, and video chats, but the love and connection is still there. I have read this story multiple times, and each time, I still fawn over the adoration that is clear between these two. But honestly, there are no words as to how much I loved this one.

Coming Home consists of 174 chapters and 285,821 words. The story is rated MA for graphic sexual or violent scenes.
