I assume it is like this with every story you write, but I am so happy and so sad the story has ended. Happy because I have finished the first book in a series and I really love the story. It was amazing to bring these characters to live and to finally be able to tell you the story of their life. There is still so much that these characters will be able to do, and they will forever live in my heart.

But I am also sad because the end means I am finished writing about these characters. Their story has been told. They still have a (hopefully) long and bright future ahead of them, and I believe they will never hurt each other again. Whatever happens next to them, will only be known to them.

But the ending of this story means the beginning of a new one. I still have quite a few ideas for more books, but right now I will continue writing this series because I absolutely adore it.

I hope you do to, and I hope that you will read whatever I have in store for the other Brompton children.

Also, I want to end this book by apologizing for any mistakes I make.

First and foremost I want to apologies for any spelling errors you might have encountered. There are not many, but I am not a native English speaker. I come from Belgium, my native language is Dutch, and English is only the third language I speak. I hope this did not bother you too much, but nevertheless, you can let me know if you find a mistake. I will try to correct it as good as I can.

There is also a possibility I have made historical mistakes. I have tried to make it as true to history as possible, but since I do not live in the Victorian era, I might have made some mistakes. The story is set around 1850, but so is every book after this, which means that time doesn't really move. That is the magic of books!

Also I do not prove read my books, because that would mean I might rewrite the entire story. It is possible you have found sentences in which a word is missing. For that, I sincerely apologize. Sometimes my mind goes faster than my fingers.

If you encounter any of these things, please let me know and I will try to change them as good as possible. Don't be afraid to tell them to me, I will only learn when I know my mistakes.

I thank you very much for your patience and support, and I hope you have loved the story!

Thank you for reading!

Lots of love!
