He hurried up to his front door and stopped short. Did he knock? This was his house, but he didn’t want to scare her.
While he deliberated, the door opened and a wee lad stared up at him. The boy scrutinized his badge, then his face. “You must be Sheriff Jesse Cameron.”
He stepped inside and took off his hat. “That’s right. You must be Rosalin’s nephew.”
“Yes, sir. I’m Henry Bernard. Did you get the bad guys?”
“We did.” He hit at his leg with his hat as he looked around the parlor. Furniture had been moved and decorations added. Odd feeling, being treated like a guest in his own home. “Um, is your aunt here?”
“I am.” She swished into the room and smiled at him. “I hope you don’t mind that we’ve stayed here in your absence.”
His tongue tangled and he couldn’t form a sentence. While he gaped at the prettiest woman he’d ever met, the boy took his hat from him and hung it on the hat tree.
She gestured to the kitchen. “Mrs. Pickard brought over a pie this morning. She thought you’d be back today.”
He managed to say, “I… I better wash up. Dinnae usually look like this. Had a rough few days.” He washed up at the kitchen sink, wondering if that was all right. Wait—this was his house.
