Bella suffers.  When she was a young, helpless girl, she suffered abuse and has felt impure every day since.  While meeting vampire Edward Cullen, she realizes she has the perfect accomplice to help her get seek revenge against her abuser. 

I haven’t read a fic with Vampward in a while and have been in the mood for one so I went with recommendations and read A Dove’s Cry.  Although I did enjoy the story, Bella is often a complete bitch.  She is so focused on her goal that she doesn’t seem to care that she treats Charlie and Edward with complete disrespect, and that bothered me.  I love Edward though, and that kept me reading.  Karenec is a great writer, and I have downloaded a couple of her other stories to try.  I’m hoping for a more likeable Bella.  I am in need of more vampire Edward, so on to the next story! 

**The details of Bella's abuse can be graphic at times.**
