“Um—no,” Lindsey said, trying not to ogle the house’s rich furnishings. “But I’m really not that hungry.”

With the walls painted white and the windows placed with an optimum view of the ocean in mind, the house had a light, airy feel about it.

“I do hope you’ll enjoy your visit,” Mrs. Trent continued. “I was so pleased when Alex called to say you were coming.”

“Thank you,” Lindsey repeated, wondering what else Alex might have mentioned about her. Since Jamie’s birthday party, they hadn’t discussed the details of her role in this weekend’s festivities. As far as she knew, Alex might still be expecting her to play the part of his “girlfriend.”
