Katie Ashley’s next novel Running Mate is a humorous political romance sprinkled with scandal. Add it to your Goodreads TBR list today!
Despite your political leanings, I think we can all agree that this U.S. presidential campaign season has been dragging on forever.
However, for me, one of the silver linings is all the awesome political romance novels that have been recently released. I mean, who doesn’t want their politics sprinkled with scandal and sexy times 😉
This is why I’m extra excited about Katie Ashley‘s upcoming book Running Mate—a manwhore playboy nick-named “Bare” and arranged relationship to make him more respectable. What could go wrong?
Summary
Barrett
The name’s Barrett Callahan. Yeah, that Barrett Callahan—the one the press dubbed “Bare” after those naked sexting pictures surfaced. At twenty-five, I was armed with an MBA from Harvard, an executive position at my father’s Fortune 500 company, a penthouse, and a different piece of delectable eye candy in my bed every weekend. I had a life most men dreamed of. But then my father decided to run for president, and my playboy lifestyle became a liability to his campaign that was built on family values. My “makeover” comes in the form of a fake fiancée who I don’t even get to choose–one who is an uptight, choirgirl acting priss but also sexy-as-hell.Addison
My latest relationship had gone down in flames, and I was drowning in a sea of student loans when in true Godfather status, James Callahan made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. Seven figures for seven months on the campaign trail pretending to be the adoring fiancée of his son, Barrett. As soon as he won the election, our engagement would be dissolved amicably for the press, I was free to ride off into the sunset a million dollars richer, and because of the NDA, no one would be the wiser. Sure, I’d never met the guy, but I’d been a theater nerd in high school. I could pull off any role from Lady Macbeth to Maria Von Trapp. But that was before I met my fake fiancé—the infuriating, self-absorbed, egotistical, drop-dead-sexy King of the Manwhores.The race will be a fight to the death finish, and that’s not even the actual campaign.
Actually, there’s SO much that can go wrong here, but the drama sounds like it will be absolutely delicious… and hilarious too!
