Cindy Wight was elected on a wave of activist support, sent to Congress to change the status quo. After a career of proving herself as more than just a pretty face, she is ready to hit the ground running. The last thing she wants is to fall into a man's shadow-especially the eligible bachelor VP.

Alexander Drake is in his second term as a loyal vice president, and everyone is waiting for him to announce his run for the top job. Alex knows his next election will be easier to win with a wife on his arm-but he wants someone for more than photo ops; he wants a partner.

Sparks fly when Cindy meets the VP in negotiations over contentious cannabis legislation. Conference room meetings quickly turn to late-night flirty phone calls. The heat between them grows until they finally agree to pursue their attraction in secret, even finding some time on Air Force Two. But such a high-profile relationship can't stay in the dark for long. When rumors start to swirl and Cindy becomes the target of harassment, the scrutinizing public eye puts pressure on their budding relationship. Can Cindy and Alex risk their ambitious careers for love?
