She&#8217;s about to make a delivery that may result in plenty of future business. But while on that run, is leaving her daughter Zoey in charge going to be a problem?<\/p>\n<p>Zoey blames everything on others, only working at The Dirty Hoe for the summer to learn responsibility. So far, she&#8217;s just complained about Toby, the big dumb happy helpful employee Rita has.<\/p>\n<p>But will a misunderstanding about growing things much bigger than her mother have Toby forcing himself on Zoey in kinky freakish ways that expand more than her sense of responsibility while Rita is away?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1841400\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Smashwords!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FNX3D5SR\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Hot Shots takes readers back to the nursery, the countryside plant nursery that is, and business is expectedly slow during the heat of August at The Dirty Hoe. Fortunately the owner Rita has prospective new regular business with the county and she is cooling off while watching her employees load the truck so she can make another delivery run.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, by employees, Rita is stretching things, since technically one of those less than helpful helpers is her own college daughter Zoey, a beautiful girl with curly black hair who needs to learn a lesson in responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Zoey tends to blame everything on someone or something else, never admitting fault, and she&#8217;s only working The Dirty Hoe because of issues with the landlord at the apartment her mother pays the rent for near college. And lately the source of Zoey&#8217;s blame seems to be Toby, the big simple-minded giant who has always worked well for Rita at The Dirty Hoe. <\/p>\n<p>But as Rita points out, Toby is a good worker, never complains about anything the way Zoey does, and always has a smile. Zoey&#8217;s insistence that he is just as perverted as all men, and doesn&#8217;t need his brain so isn&#8217;t bothered by the heat lately falls on deaf ears as Rita has to make this delivery run, leaving Zoey in charge, forced to act responsibly while she is gone.<\/p>\n<p>But when Zoey takes the nutrient blend fertilizer needed to water some plants out on the sunny tables at the nursery, her idle comments about the impressively full white blossoms confuse Toby who has been told to keep and eye on Zoey and help in whatever way helps her the most. <\/p>\n<p>While Zoey comments on growing them big and perfect, Toby happens to be looking instead at Zoey&#8217;s own breasts, which do look pretty big and perfect themselves. But Zoey&#8217;s mention of growing them even bigger, thinking that would impress her mother&#8230; is quickly very much confused in the dumbed down mind of an admittedly horny and helpful Toby.<\/p>\n<p>Is it time for More Fertiliz&#8217;er? <\/p>\n<p>As far as Toby knows, the best way of growing things bigger involves fertilizer and he has just the grow juice to give Zoey what he mistakenly believes she needs&#8230; even if he ends up having to get creative to somehow make Zoey&#8217;s already large breasts so much bigger.<\/p>\n<p>Will Zoey truly blossom in many perverted ways while her mother is gone? Will she get exhausted by much more enjoyable things than heat on a hot day at The Dirty Hoe? And what will Rita think when she comes back to find her daughter having expanded much more than her responsibilities?<\/p>\n<p>Find out in another lesson in planting the seeds at everyone&#8217;s favorite countryside nursery&#8230; with More Fertiliz&#8217;er.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/1841400\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Smashwords!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FNX3D5SR\" target=\"_blank\">Now On Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Next up&#8230;  When things are Hot it isn&#8217;t a dream&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the heat of August, few customers visit The Dirty Hoe countryside nursery, but that doesn&#8217;t mean things are bad for owner Rita.
