“But would you want to live here? I’ve been searching every website hoping to find the right place for my sweet and precious and sometimes difficult future wife.”

She laughed. “Well, you have. It’s as if you know exactly the kinds of things I like.”

“Mmm, I do,” he said, bending forward and kissing her. “So, can you see us being here? Making this our home?”

“Yes, I can see us being very happy here, but I want you to know I would be happy anywhere as long as I’m with you.”

“Sorry, but you are marrying a guy with bucks, so you better be ready to let me spoil you. I need to do that, okay?”

“Hey, I’m here for it, babe. Ready to receive.” And she pulled him into her arms, the place she wanted to be every day from here to forever.

EPILOGUE

One year later…

“The last time you were here you told me you hated weddings,” Beau, his best man, said to Logan as he waited with him at the bottom of the split stairwell in the Maxwell Point estate. The whole place was covered in pastel flowers and ribbons and tiny bells.

“Yeah,” Logan said, “I used to have trouble with all this sentimental stuff. But I’ll gladly put up with anything that makes Jinx happy.”

“Spoken in the true spirit of a man in love,” Victor said, as he stood next to Shane, Natalie’s husband, who was the third groomsman.

Victor and Logan had taken the better part of a year to build the trust back into their relationship, but it had turned a corner and they were gradually finding their way back to the friendship they had once valued.

“Shh. Here they come,” Beau said.

Deena came down the stairs first in a pale peach gown, and then Natalie came down in pale green, then Bailey, the matron of honor, in pale blue.

When Jinx came walking down the stairs on the arm of her father, Logan could hardly believe how lucky he was. She wore a flowing white gown that made her look like an angel. His wild fire angel.

Her father and mother and sister had gone overboard in their kindness and regret in apologizing to Logan and trying to make up for the years when he was not welcome. So he once again was part of the D’Alessio family, but what was more important to him—now he and Jinx would be building the Bennett family.

Aside from her new commissions, Jinx was expecting their first child. Bailey and Devyn had also adopted a special needs child, so, both women were ready to hire a full-time manager for Bajinx as well as more staff to handle the shop’s day-to-day work.

Logan was also going to delegate more of his work, because now that Jinx would be his to love and cherish, he wanted to give her as much attention as she needed, never taking for granted that special bond they had.

And here she was now, standing next to him, saying vows that they wrote together, promising to be his forevermore.

And Logan decided maybe weddings were not so bad after all.
