Description

Reese Witherspoon, Oprah, and Roxane Gay LOVE her! Readers love her! Have you discovered New York Times bestseller and Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick Jasmine Guillory yet? 'The queen of contemporary romance' OprahMag.com It's the whirlwind affair that has everyone talking...

Dating is the last thing on Olivia Monroe’s mind when she moves to LA to start her own law firm. An entire night of flirting with a gorgeous man at a hotel bar could change her mind though – until she discovers that he’s hotshot junior senator Max Powell.

Max’s determination to win Olivia over proves him to be sweet, funny, and noble – not just some privileged white politician she assumed him to be. Dating in secret is fun at first, but when they finally go public, the intense media scrutiny results in the exposure of Olivia’s rocky past, criticism of her job, and questions about her suitability as a trophy girlfriend.

Olivia knows what she has with Max is special, but is it strong enough to survive the heat of the spotlight?
