Grumpy Jake by Melissa Blue Pdf

Bailey Thorne doesn't hate Jake the Rake, just despises him. She blames the rumor mill at her school…and, okay, him. His adorable son has only been in preschool, but Jake has already made an impressive dent in dating the unmarried faculty. She's had to hear of his every exploit from the broken hearts he's left behind. She was fine to loathe him from afar, but now his son has entered kindergarten—and she's the teacher. It's going to be a very long school year. Jake Polaski was more than fine to avoid Ms. Thorne after it became clear she was not amused by his very existence. But then they get stuck in an elevator for an evening. He finds out that underneath that baleful glare she always gives him, lies a warm, funny and sexy as hell woman. He does his best to not be smitten after every exchange afterward. His son needs him rational, steadfast...and love is the most uncertain thing. It was the elevator's fault. Had it worked like it should, Bailey would have gone on with her life without seeing why so many of her co-workers had fallen for the grumpy single dad. (It's his dry wit, his playful teasing and the drool-worthy cut of his jawline.) And now she's caught in the way he doles out smiles and the dark depths of his secrets. If nothing else, she knows from rumor there's a clock ticking on their affair before it implodes, because things always do with Jake the Rake, but she can't seem to walk away first.

Jake's Run by Jerome Mahoney Pdf

When Jake, a powerful young bull owned by a cantankerous farmer named Bingo Reilly, escapes his pen and runs loose through a quaint Vermont town, the ensuing furor starkly reveals the state's parallel universes. Populating one are the yuppie city folk who moved to the state over the last few decades and now dominate it politically, and in the other are the people who have long lived there, some for many generations. The two universes get along well enough, mainly because they have little to do with one another: one prefers Mozart and golf, the other Emmylou Harris and Friday night Bingo. Nonetheless Jake's dash for freedom raised conciousness on all sides, including Jake's.

What does author Jake Watterson need with a secretary? Nothing, that’s what! But when beautiful Betty Ann, who can’t type, talks too much and cooks like an angel enters his life, Jake begins to wonder how he ever did without her. Betty wanted nothing more than to be a secretary, to forget the past and a fiancé who jilted her. But sexual harassment from her old boss left her jobless, and a new job with grumpy Jake Watterson is the second chance she needs. Betty thinks Jake could never see her as anything but a secretary—and not even a very good one. Jake believes he’s too damaged and could never be good enough for the beautiful farm girl who’s entered his world, talking about life on the peach farm and baking him the most delicious things. Somehow, being near each other seems to thaw the winter in both their lives. Will they ever both see with their hearts the love they hold for each other? Like peaches growing in winter, it seems impossible. Jake’s friend and publisher gets into the mix when he sees how beautiful Betty is and decides to start flirting with her, to Betty’s shy consternation and Jake’s jealous irritation. Then Betty’s fiancé who jilted her shows up on her doorstep, hat in hand… a sweet historical romance
