Something Just Like This

Jonathan Lake is the beloved NYC mayor making a run for Governor. His widowed status and close relationship with his daughter cast him as the darling of the press and the candidate to beat — but behind the flash of the cameras, his perfectly managed world is coming undone. It all has to do with his strait-laced assistant. Her skills and reserved demeanor are perfect to run his campaign, but her brilliant brain has become a temptation he’s been fighting for too long. Can he convince her to take a chance on a long-term campaign for love, or will his efforts end up in scandal?

Alyssa Block has admired the NYC mayor for a long time, but her secret crush is kept buried under a mountain of work. Besides, she’s not his type, and office scandals are not in her job description. But when they retreat to an upstate horse farm for a secluded weekend, the spark between them catches flame — and Jonathan sets those piercing blue eyes on winning her. Can she convince him to focus on the upcoming election, or will she succumb to the sweet promise of a different future?

Something Just Like This is a forbidden workplace romance featuring a widower governor, his brilliant off-limits assistant, and a slow burn that was absolutely inevitable. Can be read as a standalone.
