Jelly Bean Dreams - Nancy Fraser - Bog

Alicia Miller is right on track to achieve her dreams of owning her own confectionery while she's still in her twenties. The only problem is the unexpected code violations on the building she bought to house her store. With most of her savings gone, and a loan to repay, she needs repairs done fast and cheap, while still being able to get her necessary licenses. When Alicia Miller answers an ad in the nearby campus newspaper, she's hoping the repairman knows what he's doing. While his price is right, if he botches the upgrade, she'll be back to square one. With her opening scheduled two weeks before the Easter holiday, she realizes both she and her handsome handyman will need to work long hours to get the job done. Former Army Ranger, Dean Cole, is on his way to earning a degree in engineering. All he needs is to keep his head above water financially until he graduates. To do that, he's picking up odd jobs. If eight years in the military taught him anything, it was how to punt your way through adversity, no matter your limitation. In Dean's case it's partial hearing loss caused by head trauma during deployment. Will being surrounded by something as enticing as boxes of candy coax them into a few sweet kisses? And, once the job is done, will he want more than just a sample of what life could be like with his own candy girl?
