“Did you consider just setting a pile of money on fire instead?”
“Har har, smart-ass,” Maggie quipped over Aerosmith wailing through the speakers.
She was used to Dean’s overprotectiveness toward her home renovation budget and his consistent mistrust of her ability to turn nightmares into dreams.
The house rose in front of them through the rain-slicked windshield as the truck squeezed through the overgrowth on both sides of a rutted lane. Three stories. A massive porch that disappeared around one side. Shingles and carved wood with several layers of peeling paint battled it out to draw the eye first.
But nothing could compete with the turret. Part of the porch on the first floor, it became a balcony on the second. The third and final level was closed in with rounded windows and a needle point–tipped roof. The view from up there was one she predicted that even the pragmatic Dean would get excited about.
