Kiwi's 4 sweet pea review appears at mrsconditreadsbooks.com/index.php/?p=13525This book is a cute little short which tells us about Parker, the son of the company's president and Mason, the software developer and IT tech who works for his father. Parker is ambitious; he wants to take over his father's position as CEO of the company but his father is not sure if he's ready or even able to run it. So, instead of handing over the company to his son, he decides to sell the company which will leave many without jobs. Parker is hurt, stunned and furious that his father would go to such lengths to keep him from running the company. Parker along with his cousins Anna (who also works at the company) and Margaret (who loathes Parker's father) decide to buy the company. The outcome of that buyout was quite a surprise; it shows that Parker's father isn't as bad as you originally thought. This story is really quite good. It's not heavy on sex (it has only one full on sex scene that's written toward the end of the story) but that's okay. Parker and Mason's disastrous first date and the interoffice IMs passed between those two and others in the company will keep you cracking up; they are hilarious. This story lacked heat, but it made up for it with humor and that's okay. I would definitely recommend this short story.
