Who says politics isn’t sexy?

PATRICK BLANCO wants nothing more than a chance at the presidency, and he’s willing to do anything to get it. At just thirty-eight-years-old, Patrick is already one of the youngest and most successful senators in the country, but he’s destined for more. Much more. When the cold winds of the New Hampshire primary blow in his favor, his campaign kicks into overdrive.

So does his love life.

ALEXANDRA JONES knows that working on Patrick’s election could be the job she needs to prove herself in Washington, DC. Win with him, and her life will change forever. She just didn’t count on something---her growing attraction to her boss. Pretty soon, she can’t deny it.

Neither can he.

As Patrick and his team head to South Carolina, life gets complicated. This is politics, after all. Secrets don’t say secret for long. Everything has a price. Everyone has a motive. There’s no time for love.

Or is there?

My Review

After watching the intense race of the presidential election between Clinton and Trump, this book made politics a bit more... dare I say... palatable? I was inundated with messages citing my friends' disappointment with how the voting played out and it was a bit of bliss to get lost in this story.

Patrick is the 38 year old presidential candidate, the underdog if you will, and Alexandra is his communications director. It was obvious pretty much from the start that there was something brewing between these beyond a professional relationship. You just can't hide that chemistry. Unfortunately, there are two obstacles standing in the way of them exploring more: his candidacy and Kathryn, his girlfriend. Are Patrick and Alex destined to be apart or will Patrick win the more important race: a chance with Alex?

This book was fun to read. It was short, but packed with plenty of juicy tidbits. I'm hoping that the series continues with these two characters because it really seems that their story has only just begun.
