a cook.”

      “You’ve heard correctly. I’ve already sampled her chicken and dumplings and it has my own cooking beat by a mile.” Then he turned serious. “Which reminds me, would you mind letting Mrs. Ortolon know I may not be able to help her at the boardinghouse for the next several days?” He touched the bandage on his arm. “I definitely won’t be swinging an ax anytime soon.” He’d been doing odd jobs at the boardinghouse in the evenings for meals and pocket change to help him get by until his business was better established.

      “I’m sure she already knows, but I’ll stop by when I leave here.”

      “Thanks.” Nate brushed at a bit of lint on his coverlet. “Mrs. Leggett—she’s a widow, I take it.”

      “She is. Her husband died a little over a year ago. She and Joy moved back here shortly after it happened.”

      Some time had passed, then. Of course, he knew from his own experience that one never totally “got over” the death of a loved one. “So she wasn’t living here when he passed away.” He hoped she’d had friends, people she could lean on, around her.

      Adam shook his head then shifted in his seat. “There’s something you should probably know if you’re going to be around Mrs. Leggett much—her husband’s passing wasn’t peaceful. He died of a gunshot.”

      Nate froze for a moment as that sunk in. That must have been horrific for her. Had she witnessed it? Had Joy?

      Then Adam cleared his throat and gave him a look that had a touch of sympathy in it. “It happened during a bank robbery.”

      Nate dropped back against his pillow as all the implications of that news thundered down around him like a rockslide.
