Author's note: Hoo-boy, what a ride! It was a hard one but so rewarding. I loved Bronx and Eme's story. Daxton's book is next. I hope you aren't too attached to Jazzy getting together with him ;)
We will see more of Bronx and Eme. A wedding maybe?
If you haven't read Knox and Mica's story, it's here.
And Talon and Crystal's story is here.
