A political golden boy and the woman of his dreams take the risk of their lives in a sexy romantic comedy of strange bedfellows and second chances by New York Times bestselling author Lauren Layne.
Fresh off being named Citizen magazine’s Man of the Year, New York City’s youngest mayor, Robert Davenport, decides it’s time to strategize. Next move: a bid for the governor’s seat. In his way: an incumbent with a flawless reputation. He also has an Achilles’ heel: an estranged wild-child daughter with a past so scandalous it could be Robert’s ticket to victory. And a charm so irresistible it could be Robert’s downfall.
Rebellion is a thing of the past for Adeline Blake. As New York’s premier event planner, she’s all about reform and respectability. Then she’s approached by Robert to organize the party of the season. Curious, considering he’s her father’s most formidable opponent. And alarming, too. Because Addie can’t help but fall for the righteously popular candidate with the movie-star smile.
Now it’s Robert’s choice. Does he pursue a future that holds his legacy? Or the woman who holds his heart?
💜Review💜
Robert is the Mayor of NY and he loves his job and the city he serves. Unable to run for another term he has his sights set on becoming Governor however his closest advisors have warned him that being named Man of the Year and being single is going to work against them. Their solution is to get the true story on his competition, and they have just the plan to do it.
Adeline has left her partying days as Addie as well as her politician father in her past. After suffering a devastating loss all she wants is a new beginning and to ensure the success of her event planning business. The opportunity to plan one of the Mayor’s function would definitely help but she is unaware that he knows who she really is.
Robert is not happy about using Adeline for information and likes he even less once he meets her. He is drawn to her in a way he has never felt before but will being in a relationship with her cost him his political career?
Sweet and sexy I enjoyed seeing how Robert and Adeline couldn’t help falling for each other even though they both fought against it and the relationships they had with their friends added to the story.
