Just when she feels like she's finally moved on it's time for Jane and Charles' wedding, so back she treks into Darcy's world, but she doesn't come alone.

1. Author's Note

Today is the big day!

Beth and Darcy's story is finally coming to a close and boy, has it been a wild ride. I struggled *a lot* writing TTTC. These characters have been with me for over 300,000 words now and it's hard and very bittersweet for me to let them go. I wanted to keep this final installment more focused on repairing their relationship and less on the outward drama that has been affecting them up until this point; don't worry, there are still some things - some people - who need to be addressed... It's even hard now to find the words to say how many times I vacillated over this plot-line. I had so many ideas in my head, and yet this is the way the characters seemed to want to go... All that to say - I hope you enjoy it. I hope I've done their story - their love - justice. I look forward to your feedback as always.

Thank you for being a part of my journey.

Rebecca

PS - My goal is to update new chapters every Thursday and Sunday. This is not a guarantee - it's summer and I have a couple places that I'm going, CE courses that I'm taking, and just life... So, please don't be upset if I miss a day. I will try my very best not to. :)
