He was a player. Or so her friends had warned her. The few times she'd seen him before today he hadn't flirted with her, though. Of course, they'd talked business then because he'd brought Stanley as a boarder.
One truck door slammed. Then another opened. Maybe he was bringing someone else to rent a room.
She glanced at her mother's portrait. Mama would have cautioned her to stay away from a man like her father, who was only passing through. Everyone said that Cody Mallehan grew bored quicklyâwith women and locations. He wouldn't be sticking around.
