About this ebook
Ed waited until all the eyes in the room were on him before he began. He took a deep breath, inhaling as he did so the sweet scent from the lilies, which were arranged extravagantly in front of him. 'Ladies and gents, I promise to try and keep this short and sweet…'
When Billy asked his best mate Ed to be his best man, Ed knew he would have to make a speech and he was dreading it. But he also knew how important it was to Billy - and to his soul mate and wife-to-be, Amelia. So Ed is determined to do them proud. But little does he know that it will be the most important speech he will ever make, and his toast - 'To Billy and Amelia - together forever' - will mean more than he ever thought.
A beautiful short story to remind you of the importance of love.

There is a twist in this story, which I actually guessed what it was before I started reading it and that is because I had the same idea for a story. It was still well written though and many people will be surprised at what happens. Ed is bestman at his best mates wedding and he is dreading doing the speech for Billy and Amelia, but he ends up doing them proud. It's a bittersweet read.
