In this scene Jessie is explaining to her 'friend' Jack that she is 'Not Quite Dating', about her list of desired qualities in a man.
“No bums, rich or not. A man has to make his own
living. I don’t want someone who will drown if the stock market drops. The guy
has to be able to dig himself back out.” Jessie glanced over the heads again.
“So let me get this straight. Rich, not too fat,
self made, young... did I leave anything out?”
“He’s gotta like kids.”
Jack blew out a long breath. “That’s a tall order,
darlin’. You sure that kind of guy is out there?”
It was a lofty list. “I’m not sure of anything, Jack.
This was your idea.”

Here's the Blurb:
Waitress and single mom Jessica “Jessie” Mann is practical to a fault. Even if she had time to date, which she doesn’t, she’d be determined to provide her son with a more secure upbringing than the one she had—and that would mean a husband with big bucks. When Jack Morrison—a sexy-as-sin, seemingly broke customer with a cowboy hat and a seductive grin—tries to flirt with her, she shoots him down. She doubts a carefree dreamer like Jack can provide the financial stability she needs. Yet with Christmas just weeks away, and Jessie not wanting to spend it alone, the charming Texan is proving hard to resist.
As the heir to the Morrison luxury hotel empire, Jack is used to being fawned over. But Jack needs someone who will fall in love with him—not his wealth. He’s set his sights on Jessie, though her hardened heart just might get in the way…To be sure, he conceals his true identity and offers to help Jessie find the rich husband she seeks. But Jack’s daring charade may rob him of the holiday wish he wants most of all…
