“With pleasure.”
Jonas looks between us.
Panic everywhere.
And for the first time since this whole nightmare began, I feel calm.
Because he touched my girl.
He threatened my girl.
And even with the head start I’m giving him, it won’t matter.
Because now the whole world is coming for him.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
Epilogue 1: Mary
It's the St. Patrick's Day Gala.
And somehow, somewhere between Sister Agnes's original idea of “a little fundraiser in the church hall” and the Volkovs and Furys getting involved, things escalated.
Wildly.
No more folding tables and paper shamrocks.
No more Bingo prizes and bake sales.
Nope.
We're at the Stargazer Hotel.
The Stargazer.
The same gorgeous hotel where Holly Winters Kane planned Christmas events before she married Noel.
And apparently once Holly takes charge of something?
Magic happens.
The ballroom is breathtaking.
Everything glows in shades of emerald and gold.
A million lights sparkle overhead.
Fresh flowers decorate every table.
There are authentic Irish beers.
Traditional Irish dishes presented on beautiful little tasting plates.
Live musicians.
Dancing.
Silent auctions.
