Career-driven attorney, Jill Parnell, has worked long and hard to become a partner at Corbett, Gray, & Shaw. When the coveted position is given to the boss’s nephew, she does what any intelligent employee would do—attends a colleague’s wedding and schmoozes a high-powered partner at another law firm. Her potential new boss has only one condition for her, that she demonstrate a personal life … personal life that will support a thriving career. Pretending to have a boyfriend is outside Jill’s comfort zone, but she invites the best man to act the part and Ryan is all-too eager to play her significant other. Sparks fly between them, but she reminds herself she’s only driven to date to get back on the partner track.
When Jill discovers Ryan is the lawyer who stole her promotion, her charade threatens to implode. But breaking off their pretend relationship could cost her the job of her dreams. And the more she gets to know Ryan, the more she’s tempted to tame the bad boy, and make him her own.

06/04/2021 “Driven to Date” (nook) is a well-written story that is short and sweet. It was funny how Ryan and Jill met and then found out that they worked in the same lawyer firm. I like that Jill changed from a work-a-holic to a more balanced individual. Ryan was very supportive and did not give up on Jill.
Good characters and story line. I enjoyed reading this book.
I read this book a second time, knowing that it was short, funny and entertaining. It still is!
Perfect beach book!
This was a fun and exciting story as Jill took her life back from her grueling work schedule to experience fun and enjoyment and even allowed herself to fall in love, even if it was with Ryan, the man who stole her partnership at the law office. Good read.
