stay at the inn. A group of kids from a rival basketball team released a dozen green garden snakes into the inn as a prank, and they’ve only found eight of them. The snakes, I mean. They rounded up all the pranking kids.”
Jordan shuddered, cringed. She’d been in combat zones and could handle the bloodiest field injuries, but there was no chance she’d walk into the inn knowing there could be snakes.
“You could stay in the guesthouse,” Karlee reminded her. “I set up my office in there, and I sleep there sometimes when Lucian’s in town, but you can just shove my stuff to the side to make room for your things.”

No chance of escaping old memories there.
Still, she’d be close to Corbin so she had to keep it on her list of possibilities. While she was in town, though, she would look for something else, maybe a short-term rental. If she had time, that is. She didn’t want to be away from Corbin for too long, but there were still things she had to do.
