At Wild Rose Cottage (2016)
“Soon after the auction ended he had seen Alaina angrily roaming the site, grabbing bits of trash and hurling them into a trash can. When asked what was wrong, she’d grumbled something about boneheaded men and wasting too much time on a jerk.
“Who are you talking about?” he’d demanded.
“None of your business,” she had muttered, adding, “Men,” in a disgusted tone.
That was when his phone had rung. Alaina had immediately stalked away to help in the kitchen.

Emily was still talking to Carl, so Trent decided to check the house himself.
It was puzzling. The culprit must have been searching for something, and it was even more obvious on the second floor than on the first.MoreLess
