Garland widened his eyes with surprise and smiled. “Really?”

“Yes. And why don’t you take out that bottle of limoncello you’re hiding somewhere in this office?”

“What? Are you serious?”

“Have you ever had any, Reverend?”

“Never heard of it,” he said.

“Garland?”

He rose, his eyes on me, and then pulled out two books on a shelf and revealed the bottle.

“You sure?” he asked, going toward the glasses.

“We have to overcome our demons, or we’ll never be truly happy, right, Reverend Chase?”

“I couldn’t have said it better.”

We made our toast and then walked him out to the carriage. Lucas had brought him. As they went off, we watched.

“I think you’re going to be quite a surprise, Corrine,” Garland said.

“Even to myself,” I said.

He laughed, and we walked around the house to watch the finishing touches being made on our wedding site.

I knew now how this would begin.

I had no idea how this would end.
