Worth the Effort [Red Hook 6‪]‬

[Siren Classic ManLove: Erotic Contemporary Romance, M/F, HEA] Ray Garcia loves running his family's restaurant. Settling down was not something he thought he wanted or needed. Not now. Until he met one of his employees: Corina Ramirez. Unfortunately, he listened to false rumors and fired her unjustly. Discovering his mistake made him realize he cared deeply about Corina and, if he didn't want to lose her forever, he needed to make amends quickly. Corina Ramirez had goals for her career. Working at the Garcia family restaurant was temporary. As much as she was attracted to her boss Ray Garcia, she was hurt by the fact he never gave her a chance to defend herself. Suddenly, he claimed not only could she have her old job back, but he was also interested in getting to know her more romantically. Men were too confusing. It was safer to stick with her goals for a better job than to trust in men. Can Ray convince Corina his change of heart is real? Can he protect her from the threat of having a jealous enemy wanting to destroy them both? The path to love is never easy, but it is worth the effort. ** A Siren Erotic Romance
