Wicked: For Good And Romance Endings
Spoiler Alert – This post will talk about Wicked: For Good, the second and final movie concluding the story of the Wizard Of Oz’s ‘Wicked’ Witch, and it WILL contain spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this magical movie with a solid romance novel-worthy ending (YES!!!!), you might wish to skip this post.
I was dreading watching Wicked: For Good. I loved the first movie so very much and the trailers looked like the second part of Elphaba’s story would ruin that for me.
It didn’t ruin it. At all.
It made me love the story MORE.
I LOVED Wicked: For Good.
The characters held true. The relationships evolved and grew stronger. The tie-ins to the original Wizard Of Oz were magical. The girl power and friendship rocks messages remain.
And the ending…the ending, my friends. It had all the aspects of a great romance novel ending.
It was unexpected and hard fought for.
During the dark moment, I truly thought all hope of ANY sort of happy ending was impossible. I definitely didn’t think there would be a romantic happy ending.
Yet there was.
And it was delightful and different, not-at-all what I thought their romantic happy ending would be like yet it was perfect for them.
This is definitely a movie to rewatch when writing an ending to a romance novel. It is inspiring.

Muse Food – Sunsets And Endings
I LOVE sunsets. The sky is painted orange, red, yellow and other colors. It is vibrant and alive and ever changing. And I like the creep of the darkness, how it spreads and takes over.
A loved one isn’t as enthusiastic about sunsets. She finds them sad because, for her, they signal the end, the end of the day, the end of the light.
I see them as the beginning, the beginning of the night (which I love), the beginning of visible stars, the beginning of being able to see a portion of the universe right above our heads.
I thought of that when I wrote the ending to Claiming Cure.
For some reading buddies, it will be the end of the cyborgs’ adventures.
But for me, their adventures continue. They’re having those adventures outside of our direct view but they ARE happening.
For them and for me, it is the beginning of whatever is next.

Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
