My Dearest Madeline - Jessie Gussman

A celebrity chef that can't cook. A scarred cowboy who hates cameras. And the little girl who could bring them both together.

Madeline Reese has a successful cooking show, a best-selling line of cookbooks and is considered one of the top celebrity chefs in Hollywood.

One small problem - she can't cook.

Loyal Hudson doesn't want to open his world-class kitchen to the cameras Madeline will bring with her, but the celebrity chef could be the bridge between him and a future with his little girl.

Madeline can't cook and could use his help. He can't reach his little girl and could use hers.

Can they overcome the vast differences between them and work together for the benefit of each other?

A loose Beauty and the Beast retelling, The Beast Gets His Cowgirl in the Show Me State will have you in stitches and possibly shedding a tear or two.
