Ok
Spoilers
Was definitely not a fan of Caleb. He had a threesome with two local girls the morning he met Desiree. The girls robbed him and took off with his driver. He needed a lift back to the city and Desiree was his Uber driver. I would have rated the story higher if the beginning didn’t happen. It’s hard to take a guy serious about his feelings of love when he had a threesome the day before. The heroine was a virgin and 18.

The writing was awkward for me. I was unable to connect with the characters. I know the hero’s threesome bothered a lot of readers, but I thought that was ‘brushed’ over. It did not bother me.
It was everything else that was odd and felt out of place. I was unable to connect to the characters.

His only desire
This book is about Caleb and Desiree. He’s a playboy billionaire CEO of a large media company and a man that can’t even remember the names of the women he sleeps with. Desiree is an Uber driver that picks him up from the motel he was at, taking him back to his penthouse apartment after a night with two such girls. The first thing he notices about Desiree as he gets into the car, is the way she smells – a mixture of orange and chocolate. And then how gorgeous she is.
On the way into the city, he makes her a lucrative job offer as his personal driver, but she rejects it. As she drops him off on the upper west side, he gives her a smouldering kiss, one which she surprisingly (even to herself) returns. It’s her first real kiss, and what a kiss it was!
When she gets back home, her mother tells her about their upcoming eviction, which makes Desiree think about Caleb’s job offer. The next morning after her mum has gone to work, there’s an unexpected knock on her door. Caleb is there to offer her the job for the second time, which is something he doesn’t ordinarily do. She’s a bit freaked about how he knew where she lived, and about her family’s financial problems, but she has to admit taking him up on this job offer would really help her and her mum out.
She accepts the ‘position’ and so begins their quick love affair. It’s sweet and dramatic, and passionate and life-affirming for them. It has a lovely ending, but I have to admit that I DID panic when I started to read the epilogue, and thought, “WHAT have you DONE?” Thank goodness I kept reading and took a breath! I’m already looking forward to the next one ;)

1.5 stars.
No thanks.
I’m not a fan of the love interest interacting sexually with other women. Especially when it’s the first thing you read about him. But. I can sometimes look over that if the character redeems himself and the story Is good enough.
Even though the threesome was only very briefly mentioned, with zero detail, it was just another thing to not like about him.
Also. This guy in particular is just a plain asshole. I didn’t really find one redeeming quality about him until the very last couple pages and by then it was too late. Desiree had the right idea to begin with. She should’ve stayed away from him.
I wasn’t a fan of the plot, the main male character, the antagonist, the writing style, or the ending. The only thing bumping my rating a whole half a star up from 1 is the sex, which I thought was not terrible. Not great. But I’ve definitely read sex scenes that were ten times worse than that.
I just thank the universe that this was less than 50 pages and I didn’t have to force myself to suffer through more of Caleb being an entitled prick.

First things first; I really like the cover of this book!
Driving stick is the second book in the ‘’bride of the billionaire’’ series. This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Caleb Rawls is a billionaire CEO that is used to everyone using him for his money. When his driver turns on him, Caleb is left deserted. In need of a ride home, he meets uber driver, Desiree. From the moment Caleb meets Desiree, he knows she is different and wants her.
The chemistry between Caleb and Desiree is clear to see and I liked them together.
I really liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

This was a great short book. Desiree and Caleb seem like an unlikely couple but very cute together. These two have a chance encounter but that one meeting was all Caleb needed to know that Desiree was the one for him. I really liked then connection between them. I loved Desiree's inner thoughts; have me laughing so hard. This book has a little bit of drama but Caleb will do anything to protect his woman. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a great insta-love with tension, steam, and a little bit of drama!

This very well written Book 2 in the Bride of the Billionaire Series had a good plot as well as interesting characters. These characters interactions are excellent and are well-constructed. She created a great plot and cast of characters. Cannot wait to read more in this series of her books. This is a must read. Jenna Rose has done it again with another Great book. I am always on the lookout for more books by this Author

This story was just ok for me. It was entertaining and the characters were interesting. There were plenty of things that I liked in this story. I just couldn't get past not liking Caleb. Or maybe it was more the ook factor with Caleb that I couldn't get over. Caleb did a lot of really nice things for Desiree and her mom. He and Desiree have a happy ever after that is wonderful. I recommend that you read the book for yourself. You may not get the ook factor and you may just love the whole thing!

First Time Reader
This is my first time reading a book written by Jenna Rose. I really enjoyed this insta-everything book! I loved Caleb and Desiree. Caleb was hilarious and I loved how he fell for Desiree so quickly. Desiree was sweet and really innocent but I love how she fell for Caleb! I can't wait to read another sweet and sexy read written by this author!

This hunky billionaire falls hard and fast for his Uber driver Desiree
He sweeps her off her feet and things get hot crazy fast - a little too fast for my taste
The villain is so OTT and the hero should have seen it coming
Overall a solid escapist fast read with a fresh twist on innocent girl meets wild rich billionaire

A story about love at first sight with a HEA, but well Caleb was kind of gross.. at least for me.. Waking up with two girls... uuaahhh and then trying to get in Desirees pants a few hours later... not my type of thing. It was romantic and steamy but that ruined it for me. He was just too much of a player for me.

A really good book two in the Bride of the Billionaire series! It is well written, quick, emotionally deep, funny, passionate, engaging, and enjoyable with drama and an unexpected dangerous twist. The characters are well developed and likeable; the chemistry between them is instant and intense! Definitely recommended.

Caleb and Desiree are main characters in this short story, which was a lot of fun. Caleb is famous and is pretty much used to people using him. Desiree is an uber driver that picks him up one day, after yet another woman slipped out of his apartment...with a small portion of his money and he had let her.
Good story.

Jenna Rose is fast becoming a must read author of mine. This book is a delightful gem of a book! Caleb and Desirree's story is one of finding your one and only and going for what you want and not taking no for an answer. This book has everything that you could want; comedy, drama, action and of course hot romance. You will be sorry if you miss this delightful book.

Here We Go Again!
I have read this ebook via Kindle Unlimited and this is my honest opinion.
So predictable, to show the man is manly by having him sleep with multiple women. The female main character is pure and never even kissed a guy. It is so clichéd it's farcical.
Appears typical for this author that I will gladly steer clear away from.
I genuinely found this book so nauseatingly bad that I didn't even finish it. There's no redeeming features to the storyline.

The author has given us a fast moving, instant love story. Caleb never knows if a woman wants him for himself or for his money. Until he meets Desiree and she has no idea who he is. Once their eyes meet, their lives will never be the same.

This is Book 2 in the series. I really enjoyed reading this book. Caleb and Desiree are interesting, well-developed characters with chemistry. The story is interesting, well-written with a happily ever after. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. In addition to receiving an arc, I purchased the book for my collection.

This quick read is insta-lust/love for billionaire Caleb and Desiree, his Uber driver. This intense, pasionate short story has drama, love at first sight, offers she can't refuse, a man on a mission, dangerous situations, an innocent young girl and a good epilogue. A very entertaining romance!

Caleb is a billionaire who hired Desiree to become his driver. He was attracted to her the first time he met her and pursued her. The story is light and direct to the point. Caleb knew what he wanted and went for it. There is a bit of suspense mixed with love and romance. I had fun reading it.

He's looking for a new driver.
Caleb is a billionaire and in need of a new driver. He calls an Uber and meets Desiree, a young gorgeous eighteen year old woman just trying to make ends meet. He offers her a $10,000 a month salary to drive him around, but he wants more from her than just driving. This is a great read and I highly recommend it!
