Isabella (Bella) Swan moves from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington to allow her mother, Renée, to travel with her new husband, Phil. After moving to Forks, Bella finds herself drawn to a mysterious boy, Edward Cullen, who turns out to be a ‘vegetarian’ vampire, (a vampire who drinks animal blood, as opposed to human blood). They fall in love, and must fight off a rival clan of vile vampires who want to drink Bella’s blood. Bella escapes to Phoenix, Arizona where she is tricked into confronting James, an enemy vampire of the Cullens. Bella is severely hurt, but Edward and his family save her. After Bella is healed, she returns to Forks.

Edward and his family leave Forks, Washington, because he is afraid that he is putting Bella’s life in danger. Bella falls into a deep depression for several months after he leaves, until she develops a strong friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Jacob and the other werewolves in his village must protect her from Victoria, an evil vampire who intends to seek revenge on Edward for killing James (her mate) by killing Bella. A misunderstanding occurs, and Edward thinks that Bella is dead. Edward decides to commit suicide in Volterra, Italy, but Bella stops him. They meet with the Volturi before returning to Forks.

Bella is still being stalked by the vampire Victoria, who has amassed an army of “newborn” vampires. Meanwhile, Bella is forced to choose between her relationship with Edward and her friendship with Jacob, knowing that once her decision is made she can never go back. Edward’s family of vampires and Jacob’s pack of werewolves join forces to fight Victoria’s army of vampires. Before the battle, Jacob tells Bella that if she doesn’t kiss him then he will end his life because he has nothing to live for. Bella accepts and realizes that she loves Jacob, but not as much as she loves Edward. The battle then begins and Victoria and her army of vampires are destroyed. During the fight Jacob is severely wounded, but he heals. In the end, Bella chooses Edward’s love over Jacob’s, and Jacob is devastated to hear of Bella’s choice and her decision to become a vampire.
