Publisher's summary

Yesterday, he had it all: a beautiful woman at his side, more money than he knew what to do with, and a real shot at the Oval Office. Today, he's a murderer. Yesterday, she was America's sweetheart: the wholesome first daughter of a beloved former president, a rising star without so much as a whisper of a scandal attached to her name. Today, she's an accomplice.

Vanessa doesn't know why these words flew out of her mouth when Charles is accused of murdering his wife in cold blood, but she's said them, and she isn't taking them back.

"He was with me all night."

Very Intriguing!!

This was a great story! I loved the timeline in which this story took place by spreading the story out over several years it allowed for so much to happen.
Although sex was a big topic, I was very happy that this story focused more on the betrayal and lies etc rather than the actual act of sex.
The narration was amazing!!
I was not fond of the story being the third person though, it confused me at times.
That being said, I loved the story and truly hope there is a book 2 coming.
I recommend this book!

Great Romantic Suspense and Political Thriller!

This is a great Romantic Suspense and Political Thriller. I love Vanessa and Charles's story is really intriguing, breathtaking, suspenseful, sexy and beautiful. They share an amazing chemistry. I love the ending. This story is really well written. Sebastian York and Virginia Rose have done an amazing duet narration. I totally recommend this audiobook. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

Power Games

This book had me on the edge of my seat, romance meets murder mystery. I was hooked on the story, I did feel the end was a little rushed and I wanted more but it was a great book and I enjoyed it a lot.

Wow...politics & corruption...who knew...

Charles Grant is in a loveless marriage with his cheating wife, but, as the CEO of a billion dollar company, they remain married for appearances. This arrangement worked for years...while Charles cultivates a friendship w former first daughter & pop star, Vanessa McNamara. When Charles’ wife is brutally murdered, Vanessa tells the the police that he had been with her. Does Vanessa know the identity of the killer? She takes charge of advising Charles on his bid for the nomination for President...seems that Vanessa learned a thing or two about the inner workings of Capitol Hill. Fantastic story of politics, corruption and one woman who is strong enough to fight for her man.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Excellent romantic suspense!

This audiobook was something a little different than what I normally listen to and I loved it.
It really kept me invested in the story and characters. The narrators were fantastic. Sebastian York is always a favorite but Virginia Rose was new to me and I thought she was wonderful. Will definitely look for more of her work. I hope the author writes more books about these characters. Will check out her other stuff as well.

Very powerful

Author is new to me but I liked her writing style. I liked that the two gets to know one any another before anything happens. As for both narrators, I can listen to Sebastian all day and night. Virginia is new to me but she does her part very well.

Fantastic Narration!

This book was far from what I had expected when I read the blurb. I personally do not think the blurb fully described the book appropriately. I have loved the previous 2 May Sage audios that I have listened to and had assumed I would this one as well. I'm not saying the book is bad in anyway, just not something I would usually go with. It was far more political than I had anticipated and I felt there were too many details that had been left out and caused me to be very confused through too much of the book.

The narration was amazing. I loved the duet style that Sebastian York and Virginia Rose did!

Great narration

The performance was excellent and what you'd expect from Sebastian York and Virginia Rose. But the story itself felt a bit drawn out even tough this book is just a little over 6 hours. This might have been because the story spans over several years.

But my main gripe with this book is that it didn't go in deep enough. There was just a lot of telling, and as the reader I was just an outside observer. The narrative did not draw me in or gave me the feels. A lot of the initial action was off the page and told in the narrative. So as the reader/listener it left me on the outside of the story.

Very Strategic


Wow I loved this book so much. I loved the whole political aspect and I hate politics lol. I loved how certain things were set in motion way before we knew it. So Romantic for this couple , I can’t wait to listen to the next one. Narration is fantastic.
