Spoiler-free plot summary

At a planned Friendsgiving, Daniel realizes that Six’s distance is connected to the child they learned about in Finding Cinderella. The holiday setting concentrates several series relationships in one place.

Daniel decides that avoiding the subject is no longer kindness. With help from friends, he searches for the family created by the closed adoption, knowing that any contact must respect both Six’s grief and the child’s established home.

Because the novella is a crossover conclusion, its emotional effect depends on reading Finding Cinderella and All Your Perfects first. It is short, but it resolves a question spanning two otherwise separate romances.
