This Isn't the End of Eye Candy

Yep, Eye Candy is almost over. The results of the poll at the end of chapter twenty-three were overwhelmingly in favor of Elliot. (Poor Gavin.) Last time I checked more than 85% of you want Lydia to end up with her younger guy.

As I've mentioned a few times in comments, when I started writing the book (with no end in mind) I thought Gavin was just going to be a jerky ex. But he wasn't content with that and, as I wrote, he straightening me out on a few facts. By the time I got to the end I literally could not decide which guy she should end up with. It was a dilemma.

Until I remembered that I'm the writer. I can do whatever I want with the story, no matter what the characters say. So, instead of making the hard choice, I decided to make no choice at all. In my fictional world, Lydia could, in a sense, get both boys without becoming a polygamist. I decided to give her two endings.

Both endings will post on Valentine's Day. First you'll get to read Gavin's ending in the morning and then (because I like to save the best for last) Elliot's ending will post a few hours later. We (and Lydia) get the best of both worlds! I hope you enjoy them.

Hugs,
TLC
