Blurb:
If up and coming realtor Holly Grant can buy Turnaround Farm for her client, her business will boom. Who says you have to have a man in your life to complete you? She’s fine as she is thank you very much. 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.
Excerpt: Chapter One
Last week
“It’s okay. Don’t make such a fuss about it.”
“I said, take off your shirt.”
Dan scowled and unbuttoned his shirt. “Oh, all right.
You won’t let me eat in peace until I do.”
Jeb studied the bloody hole in Dan’s back as intently as any doctor would have done. “It isn’t too bad. You’ve bled a good bit, so the wound has cleaned itself, and your tetanus shot is up to date.” He removed a first aid kit from the cabinet over the refrigerator and doused a gauze pad with antiseptic.

ReplyDeleteA good solid slice of life excerpt to show us more about the characters! well done, enjoyed reading the snippet...
ReplyDeleteA farm passed down for generations like this can be a big source of pride for a man like him.
ReplyDeleteOkay . . . so that's where they're coming from. Where are they going to?
ReplyDeleteThey seem very comfortable in each other's company, and I can see how a multi-generational farm is a big source of pride.
ReplyDeleteMen of few words. They are not going to do well when that storm of a woman hits!
ReplyDeleteSuch comfortable family dynamics going on here. And a grumpy heroine about to arrive to interrupt them.
