The C.E.O. & The Cookie Queen

Description for THE C.E.0. & THE COOKIE QUEEN by Victoria Chancellor:

Note to Self: A steer is not a pet...

I, Greg Rafferty, must not be of sound mind anymore. Why else would I bid on -- and win! -- little Jennifer Jacks's prizewinning bull, um, steer? It could have something to do with her doesn't-look-old-enough-to-be-a-preteen's-mom mother, the woman behind our successful Ms. Carole's cookies. I was expecting The Brady Bunch's Alice, not a blond, blue- eyed goddess in denim. And I know Carole is keeping something big from me. I wonder why such a beautiful woman is so publicity shy? She won't become the spokeswoman for my family's struggling business, but I think some kisses might persuade her to tell me her secrets and let this longtime bachelor become the daddy and husband the lovely Jacks ladies need!
