Finally, its here, the final chapter in the The Sweet Life e-serial drama, and, yes, I waited to nearly midnight to receive it on my Kindle. Was I going to wait and see what happens? Of course not! I wanted to find out the ending!

Last week left off with Aaron Wakefield (Steven's husband) returning to Warner Gas and finding a stunning revelation about the so-called Robin Platt. Elizabeth Wakefield went to Kentucky to find information on her. Jessica Wakefield Wilkins still loves her estranged husband, Todd, but her fling with the actor Liam may end her marriage for good.

Jessica's life is a complete wreck and now the famous Liam is stalking her. Yep, you heard me right. He is constantly texting her and when he doesn't hear from her, he practically runs her career at  VERTPLUS.NET. If Liam can't have Jessica, then no one can. His rage takes over and poor little Jake may be the victim.

Elizabeth and Aaron may be in different states, but they are working as an unstoppable detective duo as the truth about Robin Platt comes out. Aaron may have a lead that will ruin Robin's sexual assault story, and that lead is no other than Mona Thomas, and ex-employee of Warner Gas. Elizabeth learns some startling news of her own that the Robin Platt from Kentucky had a sex change becoming Robert Platt, but this Robert Platt has been murdered.

Well, here it is the final part in The Sweet Life saga. Was everything nicely tied up with a happy ending? No, not really, unless you're talking about Lila Flower Matthews who patched things up with her husband. I was surprised to see that Liam went stalker crazy on Jessica. I thought the Jessica and Todd ending was predictable. The whole Robin Platt plot had a few twists and turns I didn't see coming, but the outcome was also predictable. But what I didn't see coming was the very ending with Bruce! What the hell was he thinking? Do you know what this means? One word - Sequel!

    All I will say is that Bruce doesn't go to jail.

    You'll have to read the book to find out about the shocking ending.
