They were officially engaged, with their wedding to follow in a few months, in Happily Inc., as per his promise to Nick. She’d chosen a beautiful resort in the Caribbean for their honeymoon.

She and Aidan had been healed in the best ways possible. And now they got to be in love...forever. Right here in Fool’s Gold.
