Together with her close friend Alice, twenty-eight year old Bella Swan works for the Seattle Police Department as a detective for the narcotics division. When FBI agent Rosalie Hale comes into the department to ask for reinforcements in order to bring down a drug ring involving juveniles, she assigns three of the most youthful looking members of the team to pose as high school: Alice, Bella, and Emmett. Once at school, their goal is to try and find out who is dealing with illegal drugs and where they're coming from. They have to make sure that they act and behave like young adolescents and to not stick out too much. For the most part, the assignment doesn’t appear to be very difficult… That is until Bella meets her handsome new English teacher: Mr. Edward Masen.

Edward Masen hasn’t dated much after breaking up with his girlfriend of five years and in turn, throws himself into his work. However, having an interest in dating or not, Edward is the object of many affections and heavily lusted after by the majority of the school’s females - both students and staff. Edward never cared about the attention he receives, that is, until he meets a new student that he begins to have a hard time resisting. To Edward, Bella’s a beautiful and intelligent student with a bright future, and to whom he feels an incredible attraction. Though he fights hard to get romantically involved with her, the moment comes when they can no longer fight the connection between them. Being together brings risks for both of them: Edward could lose his job for initiating a relationship with a ‘student’ and Bella feels the need to protect Edward from the dangers of her job. But when both are faced with a moral dilemma, will ethics be damned?

I stumbled upon Ethics Be Damned after reading another one of Krazyk85’s fanfictions. Though every one of her stories has a different style, they’re all very well written and will hook the reader. The story is written in both Edward’s and Bella’s point of view. It’s safe to say that it didn’t take me very long to finish it. The characters are different from the original we fell in love with: they’re rougher around the edges, having been hardened by life but they’re just as dazzling. Krazyk85 does a wonderful job with the details of the investigation told in this story as well as the moral issues that come along with having relationships such as Bella and Edward do in this story. This is not a story to miss! It’s a great read and goes by faster than it probably should.

Ethics Be Damned consists of 35 chapters and 197,691 words. It is rated Rated MA for violence, sexual content, and language.
