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
“Your grandmother wasn’t too happy about us staying the night with the Wakefields,” Loretta said as she finished washing the last of the dishes. She folded the dishcloth across the faucet to dry and sat near the fire with Holly.
Holly smiled at the mention of her grandmother.“You know Nana; she’s a worrywart. I think it’s the best thing that could have happened. Jeb’ll listen to my offer because he’s too polite to tell me to shut up.”
“Dan may tell you to shut up.”
Holly shot an exasperated stare Loretta’s way. “While we’re on that subject, why didn’t you tell me he’s so goodlooking? He may be rude, but he’s awfully cute.”

This Week: Loretta and Holly are talking while the Wakefields are in the barn.
Yes, good instincts there - don't tell Loretta! Enjoyed the excerpt....
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing that swapping notes about how cute someone looks doesn't count as showing an interest, then? This sounds like one gossipy office!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely better to keep that last bit of info to herself. :-)
ReplyDeleteEnjoying this story. :-)
LOL! Those darn spongy knees! What a great way to phrase it!
ReplyDeleteYes, don't tell!
