Berenger Brothers #1
Driven
A man with barricades guarding his heart.
The woman whose love can knock down those walls.
For Eric Berenger, the family business is where he’s worked all of his adult life and it’s all he knows. The last thing Eric needs is a workplace romance. He doesn’t have time to waste on his personal life. But when he meets Cassidy Nolan, a businesswoman who comes to his company with an intriguing proposal, he’s instantly attracted to her.
Cassidy Nolan has built her company from the ground up. Now she’s ready to expand if she can get top venture capitalist Eric to take a chance on her. One problem. He was her high school crush who kissed her senseless one night. A night she’d like to forget as he clearly has. Seeing him again doesn’t make it easy.
Thrown together for a common goal, they form a bond that threatens all Eric believes in and doesn’t think he can change. If he can’t, he’ll lose the woman he loves.

Sometimes you come across a romance that focuses on relationships in a realistic light. Driven is one of those stories.
Cassidy and Eric are well matched. They’re both capable and ambitious, striving to succeed in their careers. Neither was the weaker link and they treated each other as equals, which I loved.
I found their maturity level refreshing. There was an undeniable attraction between the two, but it was tempered by mutual respect. They dealt with problems rationally and with level heads, instead of flying off the handle and jumping to conclusions. That not only made their relationship stronger, but their story a pleasure to read.
If you’re looking for a satisfying, believable romance, you’ve just found it!

A GENUINE ROMANCE
This is a modern day romance with everything you need for a genuine story. Two adults, with a shared past but nothing tragic or traumatic. There is real emotion and feelings between to grown people with a mutual respect and understanding. Business partners to friends to romance, this was a wonderfully, basic written story that was real in its telling. Nothing elaborate or far fetched, just a genuine romance.
