Blurb:
Dedicated career girl Holly Grant has no time for romance. She doesn’t need a man to complete her, thank you very much. Building Grant Realty takes all of her time and attention. If she can close a deal for Turnaround Farm her business will take off like a rocket. Her first problem is that Jeb Wakefield doesn’t want to sell his farm, and her second problem is Jeb’s grandson Dan, the finest looking man Holly’s ever seen.
Last Week: In this excerpt you'll meet my heroine Holly Grant.
“You’ve lost your mind,” Loretta Patterson moaned as she doggedly trudged down the rough, graveled road behind Holly. “It’s twenty degrees out here and getting colder by the minute. We have no business coming out in weather like this.”
“The roads are icy, and our car slid into a ditch too,”her employer Holly Grant said with a grin. She bent her head against the bitter driving wind that almost took her breath away. “It isn’t like you to forget something like that, Loretta.”
“As if I could,” Loretta retorted, teeth chattering. “Why couldn’t you have waited for the weather to improve to see the Wakefields?”
Holly glanced at the forbidding gray landscape. The clouds looked low enough to touch and thick enough to choke you.
This week: Holly speaks first.

“Loretta, I’ve told you a million times. If you want to be a success in the real estate business, you have to work at it. Stop worrying so much. This is important to Grant Realty.”

“The Wakefields refuse to even discuss selling their property. Why do you think they’ve changed their minds?”
Holly grinned. “I did a little research. They’re broke, and Turnaround Farm is nothing but a white elephant. They work like dogs, but they never get ahead.
