chest and let go of everything she’d tried so desperately to hide. Wyatt rubbed her back, holding her safely inside the shelter of his arms. When the tide of emotion drifted into an easy ebb, she lifted her head and wiped her eyes. “I’m sorry.”

“There’s nothing to be sorry about.” He handed her a tissue. “The house looks fantastic.”

She nodded and blew her nose. “We couldn’t have done it without a lot of help. The women who make the curtains for the tiny homes made the ones for the attic. Richard has been amazing. He spent last weekend here with Jack, tidying up all the little things we hadn’t finished.” Penny took a deep breath. “And now you’re here.”

His hands wrapped around hers. “I didn’t want to miss the opening of the Bed and Breakfast. You’ve worked hard and deserve every success it will bring.”

Penny dropped her chin to her chest. She wouldn’t read too much into Wyatt being here. He probably had other things he wanted to sort through, friends he wanted to see. “How long are you staying?”

Wyatt placed his hand under her chin, waiting until she was looking him in the eyes. “I’m staying here for as long as you want me to.”

“But the residency—”

“I’m not doing the residency program. I missed you too much.”

Her eyes widened. “But it’s everything you’ve ever wanted. You said it could take your career to the next level.”

“I lost track of what’s important. We’ve been given a gift, Penny. Finding someone you can share your life with, laugh and cry at things no one else would understand, that’s what’s important. I want to spend time with you. I want to know you as well as you know yourself and show you how special you are. And one day, when the time is right, I want to ask you to be my wife.”

More tears filled her eyes. “When you decide what you want, you don’t waste time.”

Wyatt frowned. “Is it what you want, too?”

She placed her hands on either side of his worried face. “I love you, Wyatt. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, too.”

Wyatt breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank goodness. For a moment I thought—”

Penny stepped forward and kissed him, showing him just how much she loved him. How much joy he brought into her life by being the kind, caring, and humble man he was.

When they both needed to catch their breath, Wyatt held her against his chest. “I guess this means we’re officially dating again?”

Penny smiled. “I guess you’re right. If you need somewhere to stay, you can sleep here. We’ve kept a spare bedroom for our own guests, so there’s plenty of room.”

“I don’t need to. I’ve moved back into the house beside yours.”

“That’s wonderful. The realtor will be pleased she didn’t have to find another tenant.”

Wyatt’s grin deepened. “She’s even happier than that. I bought the house. You’re kissing your new neighbor.”

For the second time that morning, Penny was stunned. “Are you serious?”

“I signed the sale and purchase agreement three days ago.”

Penny wrapped her arms around Wyatt’s waist. “I can’t believe this is really happening.”

“And it’s only the beginning.”

As they stood locked in each other’s arms, Penny couldn’t imagine a more perfect way to celebrate the beginning of their new lives. Or the beginning of an exciting adventure with her sisters.
