'Smart, sexy, funny and so sharply written. A total freaking delight.' Carley Fortune, bestselling author of Every Summer After
School librarian Alexis usually keeps out of the spotlight. But when she's dumped for being too meek in bed, she decides it's time for a change.
Enter Logan, the mysterious stranger she meets at a hotel bar. Foul-mouthed, funny and forward, he's Alexis' opposite - and wow, do opposites attract.
But the next day, Alexis finds her face splashed all over the news. It turns out her mysterious stranger is Logan Arthur, the hotshot candidate running for Texas governor. And they were photographed leaving the hotel together.
A scandalous one-night-stand could sink Logan's career, so there's only one thing for it: Alexis must pretend to be his long-term girlfriend until election night.
A shy librarian in a fake relationship with a hot politician for two long months. What could possibly go wrong?
