Jesse's Girl

By Deirdre O’Dare

Chapter 1

Bud ran his fingers through his already disordered hair as he set down the phone. Then he started to pick it up again to call his friend Jesse. Maybe Jesse could pull enough strings to divert some material from incoming stock for the Glenwood Lumber Yard, to help fill the gap.

He had to get his hands on some more lumber, but his thoughts kept sliding back to LuAnne.

He’d be one lucky dude if he did win her.

Burton Bud Hart and Jesse Glenwood had been friends since they started kindergarten, now close to eighteen years ago. They’d climbed trees and gone through Cub Scouts together, played Little League baseball and worked on their
