James and Ellie were perfect for one another. They had no plans to get married or have babies any time soon, but Ellie had been through so much in her life, it didn’t really surprise me. They were just living. Frankie’s had turned into a hotspot in London which meant it took up a lot of Ellie’s time even with Sandro running the place as the General Manager. It was a beautiful sight to see her thrive with James by her side, supporting her every step of the way. My brother really deserved the happiness he’d found.
And my sister who was my soulmate and rock. She and Jensen couldn’t be happier with each other. I was so damn excited about them getting married. Fi was already deep into planning mode although she was also like me and didn’t want a big affair. I’d already been dropping hints about a little pitter patter of tiny feet. She’d waved me off saying she and Jensen weren’t quite ready for that conversation yet. But they didn’t seem to mind babysitting my girls, so perhaps it would happen sooner rather than later. Either way, I was happy my sister had found someone so kind and caring and who loved her with everything he had. Even if I still gave him shit for it all the time.
My brother and sister had my babies. James was cooing to Maia and Fi was rocking Calliope back and forth. My family had been insistent on babysitting the girls so Brent and I could spend our wedding night alone without interruptions. It would be hard to be away from my babies, but I was equally grateful to have a night with my new husband too.
I walked over to them, my heart just about full to bursting. Brent wrapped an arm around me when I reached him, leaning down to place a chaste kiss on my lips.
“You okay?”
I looked up at my husband with a lump forming in my throat.
“I’m more than okay. I’m perfect.”
He smiled and damn if it didn’t set my world on fire.
“Oh, you definitely are. My firestorm.”
I wrapped my arms around him and smiled.
“And you’re my knight in shining armour.”
I might not be a damsel in distress, but Brent had saved me time and time again. And he’d keep doing it until the very end. When I looked up into his hazel eyes with those golden flecks I loved so much, I knew I was home. Home with my husband, my babies and my family. Despite all our hardships, we’d come out the other side. Our little clan was free of the tyranny of our father and we were at peace.
At the end of the day, that’s all this girl could ask for.
A happy family.
And a happy life to look forward to with all our loved ones.
The End.
I sincerely hope you enjoyed reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. If you did, I would greatly appreciate a short review on Amazon or your favourite book website. Reviews are crucial for any author, and even just a line or two can make a huge difference.

Acknowledgements
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this book.
The very last book in the Benson Siblings. What a crazy ride! I really can’t believe it’s come to an end. I’ve loved writing these characters and following their stories so much. Each sibling has been on their very own unique journey and I’m so pleased to be sending them off into the sunset.
Writing Jen and Brent was in so many ways an absolute treat as well as a nightmare. I say that in the nicest way possible. Brent wasn’t originally going to be Jen’s love interest, but then a very flippant comment by her brother, James, in Prohibit had me completely revamping my idea for her book. In this case, no bad thing because I absolutely love Jen and Brent as a couple. Their story brought me so many surprises, especially Jen’s backstory with him. Then again, my characters always manage to throw me a million curveballs each time I write so there’s that.
Writing Brent as a character was certainly interesting considering he’s been in the background of all of the siblings’ stories. It was almost the classic story of falling in love with your best friend’s sister, except Jen was never going to make anything easy for him. Jen is all hard edges on the outside, but if you peel back those layers, you’ll find she’s incredibly self-conscious and vulnerable. Getting to show that side of Jen when she was with him was absolutely my favourite part of this story.
I really hope I’ve given all the characters the happy endings they deserve and that you’ve enjoyed seeing the conclusion to the Benson Siblings. These four will always have a special place in my heart.
First and foremost, I would like to thank my readers for joining me on this journey. You really do give me the strength and inspiration to keep writing. I wouldn’t be doing this without you!
I really have to thank my amazing friend, Elle. You pretty much championed me through this entire series. Having someone in my life who understands my writing process and supports me wholeheartedly is amazing. Just remember, we’re going to Olivia Pope the crap out of this writing gig! #oliviapopegoals
Thank you to my bestie, Sab. You really are my rock. I don’t know what I’d do without you in my life. Your support means the absolute world. Love you, bruv!
Thank you to my family, who are always forever supportive and who champion me the whole way.
Thank you to everyone who’s supported me on this journey. I’ve had an incredibly tough year on a personal level which has caused me to pull back from a lot of social media. Coping with grief and loss whilst trying to write the books I’d promised has been hard work, but I still take time to appreciate getting to do what I love as my career.
And last, but not least, thank you to the man who made this all possible, my husband. Even though you have to put up with me working all the time, you still love and support me all the way. I love you always.
