Reportedly, Jordan Scott claims the series’ fourth book Breaking Dawn, bears a "striking and substantial similarity" to her 2006 book The Nocturne, with both including a post-wedding sex scene, a doomed pregnancy, and the death of the main character’s wife.

However, Meyer and her representatives deny any knowledge of Scott’s book.
