Edward Cullen is used to impressing people by pretending to be someone he's not. His life consists of a different woman in his bed every night, tons of alcohol, and spending most of his time on the road with his band Athair. He wasn't missing anything... Or so it seems, on the surface. But the handsome artist actually feels quite alone and it doesn't help that the release of the band's latest album has brought the success he'd hoped for. The only constant in his life is his bodyguard. So when Edward meets Bella, - a rebellious young blogger - he naturally assumes she's just going to be another lay. But things change when they are both kidnapped from Edward's dressing room. Little did he know he'd come to depend on Bella, and find himself with more than he ever knew...

Bella Swan has been progressively breaking free of her mother's tight grasp for years. She refuses to become the kind of woman Renee is and wants to make something of herself without depending on her looks or her mother's connections. So she starts a music blog, focusing on the local punk scene in Boston. Though her blog is struggling to take off, she is able to write a successful piece while ranting about Athair's new and surprisingly disappointing album Aimin' To Misbehave. Wanting to get an exclusive interview with the mysterious Edward Cullen, Bella goes out of her way to gain access to his dressing room. In the process, she finds herself (dressed provocatively, mind you) in the middle of a war she could never see coming a war involving herself and a secret organization.

Sins of the Father could be considered a misleading title, as neither Bella nor Edward are parents. However, it the story focuses a lot on Edward's family's past. Sins of the Father is a slow burn, filled with steamy lemons, drama, and some angst. It's a wonderfully written story that delves into long-buried secrets within a family and the journey to become our own, independent person. Both Edward and Bella are going through their own phase of rebellion but learn to overcome everything in order to survive and, eventually, find their happily-ever-after.

Sins of the Father consists of 38 chapters and 223,081 words. The story is rated M for description of sexual activities, foul language, and slight angst.
