Redeeming The Ceo Cowboy is a stand alone book AND part of The Slades of Sunset Ranch series. I've always wanted to write a story about a pastry/cupcake chef. And Susanna Hart is that and much more. And if you like yummy Cupcakes, sexy Cowboys and adorable Kids, this book is for you!! Amazon has dropped the price to $2.99 for a short time.
Here's some quotable quotes from the story:
"You're still mad at me, aren't you?" Casey asked quietly.
"No."
The sound of his footfalls approaching tightened her stomach. "Either that or you don't like me at all."
This conversation was headed nowhere good. "I...like you, Casey."
The warmth of his hands seeped into her shoulders. He applied enough pressure to gently turn her around. She faced him now, but kept her eyes trained on his shirt collar.
"Prove it," he said softly.
He grabbed his cup and took a hasty gulp. Hot liquid singed his tongue and he sputtered, "Ouch, damn it!"
Susanna's eyes rounded. "Did you burn your tongue?"
Her focus on his mouth didn't help the scorching pain. "You could say that," he snapped.
Her lips twitched. "I'm sorry, but I thought you knew how hot the coffee was."
"I wasn't paying attention." He was too busy noticing how hot she was. And it burned him. Literally. Susanna wasn't what he'd expected. And now he had the memory of kissing her to deal with too.
"Want a glass of water?"
"No thanks, I'll live."
"Very nice meeting you, too," Susanna said. Still in dreamland, she watched superstar Zane Williams walk away. "I should knock you to the moon for not telling me he would be here," she whispered to Casey.
"Didn't seem to matter. You charmed him silly," Casey said, his voice rough as gravel.
She blinked. "Did I? I wasn't trying to...I..."
"Yeah, well, that's the thing about you...you don't have to try."
His eyes finally met hers. "You're pretty, Susie"
"I didn't think you'd ever noticed me."
"Hell...I've noticed. But your my sister's..."
She put her finger to his lips. "Shhh...don't say it. Don't think about anything but this."
Casey snatched up Susie's wrap. "Time to go, Cinderella."
Susie rose from her seat and snickered. "If I'm Cinderella, that would make you the handsome prince."
He had more than princely thoughts about her right now.
He laced their fingers. "If the shoe fits."
The sound of Susie's laughter stayed with him all the way to the limousine.

Hey, I love your book and have read them all. But I wanted to tell you I found gluten free cupcakes. They have a delicious red velvet one.
I just love a simple raisin bran muffin, and yet I have a hard time finding them! Thankfully I can just use a mix at home, but sometimes when I'm out with others, I should eat muffins rather than what my friends are pouring into their bodies!
Guess I should add

So sorry....
I loved this entire series. Don't enter me in the contest since I already have all of the books. I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this series and so sad to see it end. But, I'm anxious for the next series to come out. There's really no way I could pick a favorite cupcake or muffin. I love too many to choose.
red velvet cupcakes w/ buttercream frosting :) thanks for sharing!
I love a chocolate devil's food cupcake with a white boiled frosting - yum!
Book sounds good!! My favorite cupcake is all of them.

I love black forest cupcakes. My niece and her daughter have started to make cupcakes for family birthday parties. (Usually around 25 people) We get to try a lot of different types. Since two people have to eat gluten free and another dairy free it makes for a convenient way to keep things separated. no knives being used for all types of cakes.
