“Is she coming down soon?” Winnie asked, bouncing in the backseat.

I nodded. “I hope so,” I replied, glancing at my watch. “She said that she would be down here soon enough.”

“Oh, there she is!” she called suddenly.

I looked over and saw Raina struggling out of the front door carrying a big box in her hands.

“What have you got there?” I asked as Raina carefully moved into the front seat, making sure that she didn’t knock the box as she did so.

“It’s my mom’s Bundt cake recipe,” she explained. “I got up early to make it this morning. I hope that George likes it.”

“He’s going to love it,” I promised her, and I inhaled the sweet, light, lemony scent of the cake as it filled the car.

“You have to show me how to make that,” Winnie said.

Raina glanced around and smiled at her. “I would love to,” she agreed. “It could be fun, right? If you don’t mind making a mess of the kitchen, that is.”

“I’m sure we could see our way to it,” I agreed. “Come on. Let’s get out of here. George hates it when we’re late.”

“All right, let’s get going,” Raina agreed.

We pulled away from her apartment and started down the road toward George’s place. I was so excited to introduce them all to one another, but I would have been lying if I said that I wasn’t a little nervous, as well.

But that was normal, right? George had known Winnie’s mother. If Raina had to impress anyone, it was him. And I wanted him to like her. I wanted to prove that I had picked the right woman to take care of Winnie with me.

Not that I was thinking that far ahead. We had only been on a few dates, and yes, of course, they had been amazing, but I wasn’t going to let myself get ahead of myself. I had a lot to think about before I took things further. I didn’t want to dive in too quickly, too soon.

Still, it was hard not to get excited when I could see so clearly just how well she got along with the people who mattered to me most in my life. I missed her when she wasn’t there. I needed her when she wasn’t close to me. I adored her, no doubt about it. And I knew that was going to make the rest of my life very complicated. Not that I minded one little bit.

We arrived at the house, and George, as ever, was nowhere to be seen. In fact, the housekeeper, Anita, was the one who came out to meet us. She had a big smile on her face, waving us down like she was inviting her own family into her home.

“So good to see you!” she said cheerily, and she gestured for us to come inside. She plucked the large box from Raina’s hands and popped it open to see what was inside.

“Oh, that looks delicious!” she exclaimed happily. “Let me take this into the kitchen, and I’ll get some lemonade to go with it.
