Bella Swan has almost everything she could've ever hoped for: an amazing career that earned her a gold medal in women's mogul freestyle skiing at the last Olympic Games, a wonderful family, and great and supportive friends. The only thing missing is a long-lasting and loving relationship. Enter Edward Cullen. Cocky, absurdly handsome, and unbelievably talented skier Edward Cullen to be exact; a man, who is currently on the best way to win two gold medals in the disciplines Super G and Downhill. Ever since the two had a quick yet highly sexual and passionate run-in three years ago, Bella can't get the bronze-hair adonis out of her head. It's him she compares every other man to and whose career she follows carefully.
When she sees him again at the current Olympic games, she tries her best to play it cool and not show how much she wants to get to know him. Believing that Edward is nothing more than a snow-ho - someone only looking for a quick fu** with snow bunnies instead of pursuing a serious relationship - she avoids him at all costs. Nevertheless, she and Edward continue meeting on several occasions which he uses to explain to her that she means more to him than a simple one-night stand. Unfortunately, his upcoming competition forces him to stay focused and keep a distance, at least until he's done with the Games. Yet both this and Bella's plan to give him the brush off don't work out and the two are finally forced to talk about what they feel...
Off Piste is a quick read that is nicely written and full of adorable fluff. Completely written from Bella's POV, the reader encounters the charming and sweet Edward Cullen through her eyes. He is pretty much every woman's wet dream and it becomes obvious how much he wants and cares for Bella (even though she doesn't realize it). The first couple of chapters have a comparatively normal length, however, after all characters are explained and the main plot is introduced, the author switches to short chapters, similar to those found in drabble fics. Though this is the main reason why this fanfic is such a quick read, it also tends to break the otherwise wonderful story in too many too tiny pieces. Last but not least, there is also a good amount of humor in this story, especially in the beginning, when Edward and Bella use their time together to do nothing but banter with each other. Though there are a lot of nice lemons in Off Piste, none of them are overly graphic. Still, you should definitely give this story a chance - it's perfect if you're in need of something fluffy and short!
Off Piste consists of 51 chapters and a total of 58,949 words. The story is rated M for numerous lemons and foul language.
