Jake fans—there is absolutely no love for you here. Although I tend to separate Jacob from any negative characters authors put him in, so it’s not too bad if you can just completely distance yourself from the name. This character doesn't resemble Jacob in the slightest with personality or actions, so it's pretty easy.

*SPOILERS FOLLOW*

This story was so flip-floppy with emotions, I seriously thought I would get whiplash. But in a good way. It was highly fluffy, in the sense that Edward and Bella’s relationship only had flaws in the sense that they didn’t see how much one cared for the other. On the other end of the spectrum, it was highly angsty, considering that Bella’s entire family was out to get her. The story comes out (although not graphic other than describing after-effects) that Phil raped Bella as a teenager, and Renée convinced herself that Bella seduced him, and sent him off to live with Charlie. Charlie is a controlling and emotionally abusive father who would love nothing more to see Bella marry a controlling and emotionally abusive Jake. The only real neutral character that’s present is Billy, who—I believe I read at one point—actually sided with Bella. Once Charlie and Jake coerced someone to issue a marriage license without Bella’s presence—or even signature—they got married and lived together at UW. Bella becomes pregnant with Jake’s son, Charlie, and this whole time both he and Charlie Sr. are convinced that Bella is under substance abuse, which is why she’s being so difficult in the marriage.

In any case… now that I’ve completely ruined the plotline for you, you should totally go read it! Hahaha. No, I’m just kidding… that’s just the back story, and it’s not exactly a secret.
