Author's Note: My first Castle fic. Response to the prompt "Endings" at castle100.


Gina’s not pleased with the twist. Oh, the one in the case is just fine, the one where the corrupt businessman turns out to have been framed by his stepson - that makes sense. It’s the one after that, the one where Nikki and Rook don’t ride off into the sunset after all, where Nikki is in love with a good man and Rook bows out gracefully - that’s the one Gina doesn’t like. Readers want happy endings.

“It is a happy ending,” Rick protests. “For Nikki, anyway.”

“Fix it, Rick,” she tells him.

He doesn’t promise. “Maybe in the next book.”
