Publisher's summary

Victoria James is at home awaiting a call from Downing Street. She's desperate for the telephone to ring but mindful of the impact a promotion could have on her husband and daughter. When she receives the summons, high office does indeed await her, and life as she knows it will never be the same.

As a young, attractive minister, Victoria will be living firmly in the public eye, challenged in her views at every turn. But nothing prepares her for what ultimately throws her off-balance: a love affair with a married man so well known that it can only be a matter of time before everyone knows their secret.

Good listen!

Jilly Bond's narration is wonderful-- really fleshes out this the many characters in this compelling human drama.

Disappointing

The characters were not believable, chapters seemed repetitive, and the narrator's voice for the protagonist's lover made him seem unhinged and unattractive contrary to the author's apparent intentions.
