“Do you like it? I had trouble picking.”

“I couldn’t have picked better myself,” she managed to get out.

Walking through the line of villagers was the most beautiful moment of her life, and she’d had so many over the last five months; the small wedding she and Gavin had in Lucky’s office with only Willa as a witness, him holding her in his arms as he told her he’d asked everyone she loved for permission to marry her, and after the baby was born and old enough to travel, he had a special place where he wanted to them to take their forever vows.

“Gavin, I don’t need a second wedding, if you want us to keep it private.”

“I want to make this one special. You won’t have to do anything. I have all the details for today, and I’ll let you pick out the next one in twenty years.”

Gavin had kept his word for planning this wedding. He asked for her preferences for colors and food, but he kept the location, her dress, and the song a secret.

As they walked the path that she could walk in her sleep, the villagers walked behind them, while continuing to sing.

Passing the village, she saw the effort that had been taken to restore the island and the villagers’ way of life. Viper, Gavin, and Willa had created a foundation with the help of Manny’s brother, who guided them to rebuild Clindale, including a new school and assistance to build the life they had before. Manny’s sister was taking the courses to become the new teacher; the foundation provided monetary help and tools, but all the decisions were the islanders’.

Outside hands had destroyed this island; they weren’t needed to put Clindale back together. They could do that for themselves. This beautiful island had survived despite Allerton, and they would grow stronger and flourish for generations to come.

Diamond was making sure that Allerton paid for what he’d done. Justice had finally caught up with him, and his finances were now in shambles. There was nothing left of his once vast wealth.

Picking up the front of her dress, Ginny began to climb the trail that led to the base of the waterfall. Every step of the way, she held Gavin’s hand, as she would continue to do for the rest of their lives. Reaching the waterfall’s basin, the area was already filled with their guests waiting for them. Those who hadn’t joined them on the yacht, they’d flown into Sherguevil Island and were staying at the resort, which Desmond Beck now ran, along with the foundation.

Desmond had quickly cleaned house and removed the members who’d supported Allerton. Under Desmond’s new direction, Sherguevil Island was a thriving vacation spot where charities and donors could meet for the benefit of the foundation and its causes.

Ginny took Desmond Beck being completely philanthropic with a grain of salt, but she trusted Diamond and Gavin to make sure he would be held accountable for any actions they considered shady.

The singing stopped when they entered the clearing. Pausing by a woman, Ginny released Gavin arm to take her son. Placing a kiss on his forehead, she handed her wiggling son to Gavin.

“Go ahead. I’ll be there in a second.”

Snuggling, Freddy to his chest, Gavin went to take his place in front of Paster Dean, who was waiting to perform their ceremony.

“Thank you for taking such care of Freddy this morning. I really appreciate it,” Ginny said.

Jewell’s standoffish attitude didn’t prevent her from reaching out to hug her.

Pulling back, Ginny gave her a warm smile. “Gavin told me used your vacation to come here and help him plan the wedding. You’ve done a beautiful job.”

“You never told him I was in love with him.”

Genny’s heart cried for what Jewell was going through. “I told you I wouldn’t.”

Jewell shrugged. “A lot of people say they won’t do things. Doesn’t mean they won’t.”

Her gaze sharpened on her. “When Gavin asked me to watch Freddy this morning and keep him during your honeymoon, he said you asked for me specifically, despite Trudy and Willa offering. Why did you want me to be the one to watch him?”

“Because you would give your life to protect Gavin’s son.”

A flash of unimaginable pain flash crossed Jewell’s face before it she could hide it behind the cool mask she normally wore.

Ginny reached out to hug Jewell again. “I swear, Jewell, there is a man meant just for you,” Ginny whispered to her as she pulled back to give her a mischievous smile. “Who knows? You could meet him tonight at the party.”

Moving away from Jewell, Ginny took a few steps to the man who was waiting to escort her to Gavin. Hooking her arm through Will’s, they moved through the parted crowd to take her place beside Gavin.

Paster Dean cleared his throat as he began the ceremony. “We have all gathered here to witness the end of Gavin and Ginny’s search for the special someone who makes them whole. This is a celebration for these two souls being reunited, as God meant for them to be. Gavin, you may speak your vows.”
