I COULDN’T BELIEVE I’d nearly kissed Wren.

His reaction to my window had been on replay on my mind, like a circular catwalk but where there was no change in clothing. Then Abi wouldn’t stop telling me all these cute stories about him that didn’t match at all the persona he seemed to put up around me.

When she’d asked me to deliver an envelope with documents to Wren I couldn’t say no, after all she was my boss. But she’d dressed it like it was only a small detour on my way home when it was nothing but. I hadn’t realized until I was nearly there that the address she’d given me was their address but for a separate apartment above the garage.

I’d decided to just put the letter in the mailbox but then there wasn’t one, and I didn’t know how important the documents were. As a last attempt I’d rung the bell on the main house, hoping Troy would be in but there had been no answer.

Abi had told me that Jonas had started going for small walks around the block with Troy to build up his strength, so I’d been left with no choice but to knock on the door of the apartment.

After witnessing Jonas’s heart attack, when I saw Wren covered in red I’d panicked and then couldn’t stop laughing when he’d clarified it was food coloring.

I’d had my own struggles with the food coloring tubes sold in the grocery store, but Indy had said to use scissors to cut through the plastic lid to make it easier to snap. My food coloring disaster had been contained to the kitchen work surface.

As soon as I’d recovered from the laughing fit, I’d become very aware of how close we’d been to each other and how Wren’s gaze burned into my skin.

I didn’t know what had been going through his head but inside mine there had been a giant flashing billboard saying kiss him, kiss him. As he’d raised his hand to nearly cup my face, I’d known I was going to do it, but fortunately a car noise outside had brought me to my senses.

I shouldn’t kiss him because he was straight—even if I had my doubts about that at the moment—but at least he was in the closet and there was no way I’d be with someone who wasn’t out. Then there was the fact he was my boss and that there was a whole country between us.

And then there was that itty bitty detail of him being my rival at the bake-off. I hadn’t paid any attention to the other contestants that first day of the bake-off, something I now regretted because I had no clue who my competition was.

When I walked back into the high school gym I was a ball of nerves. I was afraid that all the crap going through my head would screw up my concentration, and I was even more afraid that my competition was just too good. I had so much riding on this bake-off, I didn’t even want to consider how I’d feel if I didn’t win.
