We got a seat in the Watchmaker’s Arms over the road from the auction house. I was surprised Dean was still in one piece and hadn’t combusted over the table. After Gemma and I had signed the documents and dealt with the admin, the team from ‘Homes Under The Hammer’ had approached us and asked about our time scales, and whether they could follow our journey. So now it was official: we were going to be TV stars.

“A toast.” Dean held up his glass. “To Maddie. For coming back into my sister’s life, suggesting going to an auction, giving me work and ultimately making my ‘Homes Under The Hammer’ dreams come true. You’re an absolute legend in my eyes, even though Justine might think otherwise.”

Gemma made a sound like a donkey. I sat, mouth open, staring first at Dean, then at Maddie. Had he really said that? Like he was 12 and didn’t understand the complexity of human relationships at all? Perhaps he didn’t. Perhaps that’s why he was single. It would explain a great deal.

“Thanks, Dean.” I was pleased to see Maddie didn’t quite know how to take that, either. “Glad your dreams are coming true. Let’s hope it follows through with everyone here, shall we?” When she spoke, she didn’t take her eyes from me, before holding up her glass again, and waiting until we all followed suit. “To the continued success of Cake Heaven. And to all our dreams coming true, whatever they may be.”

I gulped as she spoke. I was sure there were lines to read between, but I was leaving them well alone.
