"Thank you, Sandy," Chasson intoned, "and I’m Jeff Chasson for the history of the Alaht--was that brilliant, or what?" Jeff asked, coan realized that Sandy was s out to the hallway to throw her arreat! I think it will bring tons of people to the inn!"

"I hope so, Sandy," Kelsey told her She looked at Logan, and he grinned in return He could tell that they were both wondering what Sandy had been so worried about

"Drinks on the house!" Sandy announced "If you’re available, of course"

Earl Candy nodded "Works for ive Caofer to pick up the film and ask him to take a look I want it back with his effects in it as soon as possible, just toreally decent"

"Thanks for letting us hang around, Sandy," Logan said "Let’s get Corey Simmons back up here, and we’ll carry the film equipment down so Kelsey can have her rooreat interview!" Chasson said, ho in on her

"No, no, I wouldn’t be I’d ruin your docu in this roohts on?"

"It’s a room, just a room An ordinary room" Kelsey spoke evenly and smiled as she looked at hi to Sandy "I’ll take that drink, Ms Holly In fact, I’ll have two I’et Corey He does kno to tote and haul," Logan told Kelsey He left her in the hallatching the crew take apart the caain

He came back with Corey and they helped carry down the equipofer who’d been summoned had arrived; he collected the filan waited with her as she went through her roohosts at all, but openly resented having Jeff Chasson in her temporary domain Chasson did have a smarmy charm; Sandy had fallen for it in no tian could suddenly envision the hours he and Kelsey had spent together, and it was an aled hiht "Let’s run by the Alaet to the station"

She nodded "Sorry I just feel…"

"Invaded?" he asked

She laughed "Yes"

"You have your key"

"Oh, yes But then, Sandy has a key, too"

"True," he acknowledged "That’s why you should just come and stay with me" The words were out of his , but as he spoke, he realized he meant them

Kelsey shook her head "Sean needs to stay with this documentary By the same token, I need to stay in Roo," he told her The days were too short for everything they had to do The killer ht already have another woman But at the moment, he needed to move for another reason He had concentrated too fully on Kelsey

"The Alamo--and our bench?" she asked

"Yeah" He hurried down the stairs Jeff Chasson, Bernie and Earl Candy were already at the bar, drinking They were joined by Corey Si to Corey, which didn’t see they could do about it

They left the Longhorn and headed out

Kelsey hadn’t liked Jeff Chasson in her rooh he’d kept his words and tone careful, there’d been so nearly salacious as he talked about thefor such a slimy manipulator, but Sandy seemed to be smitten

They walked to the Ala to Corey Simmons, ants to be in the documentary If Chasson finds out that he was in that rooan

"Don’t worry, Corey won’t say anything"

"You’re sure?"

He grinned "I’m pretty sure Corey Simmons is happy as a claed frontiers help to his co to risk that--or his rodeo career--by ad he was scared silly in a ‘haunted’ room and had to be saved by a woman"
