Moonlit Sands by SimplyMatt

Emmett and Seth have been happily in love for 20 years. However, Emmett recently made a terrible mistake and Seth is trying to decide whether to forgive and move on or let go of the love of his life.

Wow! When this new story popped up in my alert notifications, I was not expecting such a heart wrenching, emotional read. The sadness, uncertainty and insecurity Seth feels is heartbreaking, and I felt as though I had a lump in my throat for most of the read. Dealing with this particular issue in a relationship can be very difficult and I appreciated the realism SimplyMatt injected into the one shot. Even though you may need a kleenex or two to get through this story, definitely give it a shot!

Adopt a Dog by EdwardsMate4Ever

Adopt a Dog by EdwardsMate4Ever

While working at the annual Pit Bull Adoption Fair, Seth feels dismayed. He's in charge of the older dogs, who are always harder to place in forever homes than the puppies. On top of that, the breed has such a stigma attached to it, so Seth's day seems hopeless. When a handsome strangers shows interest in Seth's favorite, eight-year-old female Pit, Xena, he's both happy that she'll be in a good home and saddened that she'll be leaving the shelter. However, Xena's adoption may bring more happiness than he ever anticipated.

I really enjoyed this story! As a dog lover, I appreciated the fact that EdwardsMate4Ever highlighted adopting dogs that are not only difficult to place because of breed, but also age. It breaks my heart every time I visit an animal shelter and see the older dogs waiting to be adopted. :( EdwardsMate4Ever was also able to effectively mix in the right about of snark, wide-eyed wonder and compassion into my favorite Twilight character, Seth. Emmett was great as the all-American hunky guy with a teddy bear's heart. The development of the MC's relationship seemed very realistic and didn't seem at all rushed in this one shot. Definitely give this heartwarming story a try! It's really sweet.

A Night in the Woods by wolfboy19

A Night in the Woods by wolfboy19

Seth is frustrated and mad at the world. His only solace is phasing and running to the one being who can make him feel better: Emmett.

This is a short, but sweet story about two people finding comfort in each other. As always, Seth is a total sweetheart and Emmett is so gentle with him. This is primarily one moment in time for the couple and consists of a sex scene, but if you look a little closer, you'll see a real connection between the wolf and vampire; and that connection is really quite lovely.

Too Much by SilverAnemone13

Seth has imprinted on his good friend, Emmett, but is afraid to tell him because he doesn't want to be rejected. Little does he know that Emmett's feelings run deeper than mere friendship.

Sweet and adorable, this story will surely bring a smile to your face. The pairing of two of the most jovial Twilight characters was a joy to see and I wish there were more stories featuring this pair.
