The Baltimore Boys #1
The Charming Billionaire
The first time I met Billionaire Harrison Rothschild, I was looking up at him after the tray of drinks I knocked over landed on his Italian leather shoes.
The second time I met him, the drinks spilt on his shirt instead.
I was born with the clumsy gene, but as DC’s most sought after Event Planner, I am professional and the show must go on. I have a sick father to look after and medical insurance only goes so far. But when I get a glimpse of his perfect chiseled torso in the coat room, I do what any red blooded woman would do.
I run out the door.
Rumors are swirling that he is going to be our next Governor, and he fits the persona perfectly. With his charming smile, his broad shoulders that look like they can hold the problems of the world and his sultry eyes, that leave me breathless every time he looks at me.
But we are complete opposites in every way, something his mother has no issue in pointing out.
So when Harrison requests me to work with him on his campaign, I am not sure if I should be flattered or annoyed. Because even though I know it is going to end in disaster, I didn’t expect it to be dangerous. And I didn’t expect to become the target.

3,5 🗳💘💘🌟s❣️
Harrison and Beth were likeable characters and their journey was very engaging and enjoyable.
Tbh, I still don’t know if the revelation of the villain in the story was nice or not. 🤷🏻♀️
However, towards the end it was quickly wrapped up, yet the epilogue was nice.

Loved this contemporary romance!!! Harrison is a driven man who's worked hard and its all about to pay off with him running for governor and nothing is going to stand in his way! But when Beth a hard working girl with loads of family obligations accidentally knocks over drinks on Harrison he can't help but be enchanted by her wit and charm. Theirs a instant chemistry between them so when he sees Beth again he decides to offer her a job working on his campaign. While Beth might be clumsy, she makes up for it with a genuine good heart that pulls people to her.So it isn't surprising when Harrison sees her potential and can't help falling for this beautiful and unique woman. And the stolen kisses and touches leads to steamy passionate moments and As they grow closer together Harrison watches how others are drawn to Beth and can't help feeling like she's the one. But Harrison's mother is a complication, she's not a very nice person and I loved how Harrison stood up to her! Not letting her make Beth feel like she wasn't good enough. And his brothers are fabulous side characters too! This was a awesome Insta love story and Samantha Skye is a great storyteller and I really enjoyed her characters. Until next time Luv's💕💋

This was TERRIBLE. Rich guy and poor, but smart, young girl. Think Cinderella but with her job attached. Which they did not provide protection for should the romance go astray. For a character who supposedly as smart and professional as she was, that should’ve been covered.
Also, will someone please explain why her dad did not walk her down the aisle? FFS.

I really loved Harrison and Beth's story. He wants to be the next Governor and she just want to stay afloat to help her father.
They actually met a while ago before the main story and Harrison liked her from first look. When they met again he was so impressed from her job that made him offer her a place as his campaign manager.
The heat between them was there, and it kept growing bigger and bigger since they started working together. I especially loved was that he wanted things between them to happen and he never gave up. She on another hand felt the same and honestly gave up to her feelings pretty easily.
The smut within this book was definitely off the charts. It was everywhere and I loved every single scene with them 🔥🔥🔥.
In that boo, with this story I could definitely feel the love they feel towards each other and this is probably the reason why I read the book that fast.
What I don't like was Harrison's mother. That woman constantly meddled in his life. In the end she pushed too far and deserved every single word that Harrison said to her. If you ask me she deserves even more.
I don't know if there will be more books, but Harrison's brothers deserve their own stories. They were so much fun to read and I really enjoyed them as a secondary characters.

Beth was such a pushover in her personal life with her dad and Harrison, girl stand up.
And she was so clumsy, she fell off the roof, like what.

She is known to be clumsy, very clumsy in fact that she spills drinks on Harrison twice now. Harrison has never forgotten Beth. He was immediately attracted to her. After bumping into her again, he is impressed by her leadership in her small community and wants her apart of his campaign team. Beth agrees and gets a front-hand view of how great Harrison truly is.

I loved how there was never a dull moment in this book. What you may have thought was just a simple love story book, was not in fact! It was so much more. All the twists and turns were so good and it made me not want to stop reading it. The dirty talking from Harrison was also 🥵🔥.
I hope we get more books of Harrison’s brothers!😍

“There is no way I could have done any of it without you. You are my rock, Beth. I knew the moment I saw you, there was something about you. The moment we spoke, I knew you were special.”
“She is my heart, my soul, my everything. Including my lucky charm.”

I loved their chemistry and how there was never any miscommunication. Just them dealing with the world and working together ❤️

Happily ever after, although there were some rough patches to navigate.
Harrison has met Beth before, and still recalls her beautiful blue eyes and charm. Beth doesn't remember the event as fondly!
Cute couple! Harrison has a goal that Beth can help him achieve. They are a powerhouse team.

Billionaire Harrison Rothschild wants to be the next Governor of Maryland and clumsy, accident prone DC event Planner, Beth Longmere just wants to take care of her Dad. This story is so refreshing, for once the politician is actually a great guy who really wants to make a difference. Beth is the sweetest, loving sassy heroine we all want to be. There are many obstacles they face including: Harrisons campaign trail and his horrible, match making mother. Their love story is so hard won and very deserving. I can’t wait to read more in this series.

I don’t like to leave one star reviews, but after some serious self-debate, I couldn’t give this book more than that. Since so many loved this book, I figured I should give my reasons for the low rating.
Since you can read a plot summary in other reviews, I’ll skip that part and move on to my opinion.
The beginning of the story wasn’t bad, although I was disappointed when the longer than average page count was primarily due to the number of sex scenes rather than the depth of the story. I was also disappointed when the hero (Harrison) who, although he had promised the heroine (Beth) that he would never again allow Lilly (a childhood friend whom his mother wants him to marry) to usurp her place at his side, caves totally at another dinner, leaving Beth to sit at a table at the back of the room.
The writing style was slightly stilted, with hardly any contractions used like they would be in normal speech. (I will instead of I’ll, she would instead of she’d, etc.) And it became clear the author wasn’t American when she used phrases such as “on offer” instead of “on sale”, said by her supposedly American character, and had the election take place on a Saturday in some unnamed month rather than on a Tuesday in November. (She’s Australian.)
Okay, I was willing to let those things slide because I did become involved in the story. But when I hit the last third of the book, it went totally off the rails.
At this point, I just skimmed to the end, and my two-star rating became one star.

Finally! I couldn’t wait anymore. I’ve had this series in the back of my mind to start but I never have until now. Something drew me to start it and as it is, I’ll already be taking a break from this series to read another book that I’ve been heavily anticipating. I’m not sure why this book got lower reviews, to me I was hooked from the first page and couldn’t put it down. I raced through this book and am pleasantly surprised that this ended up being more smut than I thought it would have. I loved reading about Harrison’s different personalities and how he can stay composed and professional but once he’s out of the limelight and not trying to win voters, the man is insatiable. I don’t know how many times he made me swoon and fan myself. There’s something about a man who can act all bundled up but charming at the same time but when he has your attention and you get the chance to be intimate with him all bets are off and his actions show dominance and unbridled desire. He has no filter, says what he wants in the act and goes for it, while also checking to make sure you’re ok at the same time. What I enjoyed reading about Harrison is he had a specific face and facade he showed based on the situation but he was always himself. He wasn’t fake and people listened to him and were drawn to him. I felt that in the pages, I was enamored with him. Samantha did an amazing job bringing this man to life. I wish he actually existed in real life, but who knows, maybe there is a man out there who fits this bill. On the other side I loved how Beth was brought to life too. She had the right amount of sass and professionalism blended with independence and knew when to hold back. She also knew when to give into her desires and emotions instead of closing them off or denying they were there. Harrison did this too but my favorite moments were the ones when Harrison could be vulnerable and fully himself with Beth. Their chemistry was heated and you felt the desire roll off both of them. His talk in the bedroom probably shocked me the most because I don’t expect this big government official to have that kind of mouth and know when to use it, both figuratively and physically. Not only did I enjoy reading about Harrison and Beth’s relationship growing but I also enjoyed the campaigning they did together and his attitude and connection with his brothers. I did not like their mother. She was a bitter person and only thought about her personal gains from this and ensuring she still maintained that socialite attitude which comes off as stuck up. I also enjoyed Beth’s relationship with her father and way of life. It was interesting reading about both Beth and Harrison’s lives and how different they were but they somehow clicked and worked. On top of that, the emotion was there and I was here for it. I have a good feeling about this series and can’t wait to continue it, very deserving of 5 stars.

Beth is such a strong heroine and Baltimore's sweetheart. She went through some trauma as a child and carries that guilt with her. She also faces some trolls and hurt in the present, but she doesn't let that any of that show and takes things in stride, acting professionally at her job and taking things with grace. She does have moments where she shows vulnerability though, showing us that it's okay to have weak moments. Additionally, Beth is very in tune with her community, isn't afraid to take a stand, and cares deeply for others.
Harrison is definitely Baltimore's Price Charming. He has a good head on his shoulders and leads with a good heart. In his run for the position of governor, he takes in his surroundings and is willing to out of the way to see what his communities are like in order to figure out how to better the lives of those people. He also knows what battles to pick and will move mountains for those he loves. He can also be cheeky, has a close bond with his brothers, and will not let anyone run over him.
Beth and Harrison are like peanut butter and jelly. They work well together and in tandem/sync, finishing each other's sentences and knowing what the other is thinking, are always aware of the other's presence and truly show they are a partnership/team both in work and in life. While their meet cute wasn't so cute, their second meet was definitely off the charts hilarious cute, and there is never a dull moment between the two of them. Indeed, Harrison and Beth's meet cute starts with a splash. And as fate would have it, it picks up again with another and I love how the author ended the bonus epilogue with just one more.They also are not afraid to open up to each and share intimate moments. I really was smiling all the way through this book, getting warm fuzzy feelings from this couple. Even when they had some bumps, you knew deep down that things would work out between them, because they were just meant to be.
I also liked meeting Harrison's brothers, Eddie, Ben, and Tennyson, and we got to see snippets of them interacting with each other, supporting Harrison in his race to become governor. Even though Eddie seems to be the youngest, he also seems perceptive, and while we didn't get to see Ben and Tennyson as much as we did Eddie, Tennyson seems like he would have an interesting story with his alcoholism? and Ben seemed to be the most rationale one. I look forward to seeing if they have their own stories.
Additionally, as with other Samantha Skye novels, I found myself flipping the pages, eager to know what happens to our characters. In fact, I tore through this in one sitting. The story was not rushed and the writing was smooth.
Overall, another great story by this author!.

Beth's an event planner who's just trying to take care of her dad when she has a run-in with governor in running, Harrison. They shouldn't work on paper, they're from two different worlds and live very different lives. But something about her fascinates him, and he wants her voice on his campaign. He soon finds he wants more than just her working on his campaign, he wants everything from her.
Harrison and Beth make a great couple and have a strong connection. The reason for 3.5 rather than 4 stars is only because of the dialogue - it's clumsy and doesn't use apostrophes enough, so I was taken out of the story so often that it interrupted the flow and plot. Other than that, though, I liked the story and the couple at its center.

This is book one in The Baltimore Boy’s Series and it is Harrison and Beth’s story and omg what a great start to a new series and definitely a must read. Harrison has worked hard and now he hopes that it is about to pay off as he has announced that he is running for The Governor of Maryland as he wants to make a difference and help people so he hopes being a bachelor doesn’t put off voters especially as the campaign is so important to him. Beth hasn’t had a easy life and works for a events company in DC and she loves what she does even though at times it is hard but because it comes with medical benefits which helps especially as her dad is in a wheelchair and everything falls to her and tonight is a important event but everything doesn’t go as planned as yet again Harrison gets covered in drink and Beth will have to sort it out. When Harrison sees Beth again he knows that he needs her on his campaign so he offers her a job knowing that she will definitely make a difference. The attraction, chemistry and unique connection between Harrison and Beth was so special as they finished each other’s sentences and know what the other wants without speaking which makes everything easier. Beth not only has beautiful heart but also caring, kind inside and out and captivates people where ever they go where as Harrison’s mother is cold, calculating, horrible, evil and nasty woman and I applaud Harrison for not only putting her in her place and telling her to get out so that he can protect Beth and then we have Harrison’s brother’s who want to do so much good in the world and are so close, always there for each other and have each others backs regardless of the situation and then you get a twist in the story that will have you on the edge of your seat wondering if they will be able to eliminate the threat before it takes away Harrison and Beth’s future. I absolutely love this book and I can’t wait to read more books in this amazing series and I definitely recommend that you read this book and others by Samantha Skye who is an amazing author and writer and I have read all of her books and she never disappoints her readers.

This is the first book of The Baltimore Boys series, and I can tell you that I really enjoyed this story. Billionaire businessman running for Governer falling for an event planner turned campaign guru is a storyline you did not know you needed. This was Harrison and Beth's story.
Beth is one of DC's most sought after event planners. She is busy and successful, but money is tight because she cares for her unwell, disabled father. She is also very clumsy. She has run into Harrison twice now, both literally, as she spilled drinks on him. He sees her in action while she is working the events and is so impressed that he offers her a job as part of his lead campaign staff. She wants to decline, but with her job on hiatus she needs the money to care for her dad. What she did not bank on was falling for him.
Harrison Rothschild grew up privileged, but he has worked hard for everything he has. He truly cares about his state and is running for Governer to make a difference. He has one issue, his mother. She has her own agenda and does everything possible to make his life difficult. She has plans for him to marry once he becomes Governer, but he wants nothing to do with it. When he meets Beth the first time he is impressed by her. The second time he meets her, that does not change, and he now wants her on his campaign and by his side for it all.
These two connected from the very beginning. Harrison was amazing through this whole book. He never wavered in how he felt about Beth. He treated her as an equal and gave her the confidence to stand right by his side through everything. Beth had a tragedy in her past that shaped her future. When she finally opened up to Harrison it just made their connection stronger. I loved how they supported each other through the whole story.
This story gives us some unexpected mystery, intrigue, romance, good characters and some steamy sexy time. The secondary characters added value to the story. Harrison's mother was just awful, but his brothers were great. I liked the relationship Beth had with her father and his friends too. Overall, I really enjoyed this story. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

There are spoilers in this review.
I am really not a fan of characters who do not stand up for themselves, especially when the evidence is strong to support their defense. Beth is poor. Harrison is rich. Since Beth is poor she is unworthy of being loved by a rich man, right? Same old trope. Harrison's mother is evil. When she is incredibly cruel to Beth, Beth doesn't tell Harrison. When his mother does something to sabatage Beth that leads to damage to his campaign for governor and could have killed a man, she doesn't tell Harrison. Even though she knows he'll eventually find out and he should be on the alert for future actions by his mother. Instead, she remains silent and that leads to another problem for Harrison.
There are also several errors in logic. 1. Harrison is rich and he knows Beth is struggling financially. When she is hurt trying to repair her roof, he has his brother schedule the repair. Why not a replacement of the entire roof? No further mention is made of this repair, yet my expectation was that he'd send a crew to replace the roof, paint the house, etc. 2. Problems have resulted in the need for security for Harrison, his family and his staff yet no security is assigned to Beth. 3. Harrison left a gift for Beth on his bed. Something to wear after the election results. Why would she believe it's a dress from Target and shoes from Walmart? And, why would the villian care what she's wearing? 4. After what his mother did, why would he allow her continued access to him and Beth? She should have been banned from his life. Unfortunately, there are other errors.
In the end, Beth won't stand up for herself and Harrison is oblivious to his mother's actions when he should have a clue. He also should just tell Lilly once and for all to stay away from him. There were so many times I had to take a break from this story because I was frustrated with the characters' actions.
The final reason for a two star review is that I liked Harrison's brothers more than I liked him, yet I have no interest in reading the next book which is about one of them.
I am really not a fan of characters who do not stand up for themselves, especially when the evidence is strong to support their defense. Beth is poor. Harrison is rich. Since Beth is poor she is unworthy of being loved by a rich man, right? Same old trope. Harrison's mother is evil. When she is incredibly cruel to Beth, Beth doesn't tell Harrison. When his mother does something to sabatage Beth that leads to damage to his campaign for governor and could have killed a man, she doesn't tell Harrison. Even though she knows he'll eventually find out and he should be on the alert for future actions by his mother. Instead, she remains silent and that leads to another problem for Harrison.

THE CHARMING BILLIONAIRE By Samantha Skye
The first time I met Billionaire Harrison Rothschild, I was looking up at him after the tray of drinks I knocked over landed on his Italian leather shoes.
The second time I met him, the drinks spilt on his shirt instead.
I was born with the clumsy gene, but as DC’s most sought after Event Planner, I am professional and the show must go on. I have a sick father to look after and medical insurance only goes so far. But when I get a glimpse of his perfect chiseled torso in the coat room, I do what any red blooded woman would do.
I run out the door.
😊
What i liked -
✔ Workplace Romance/Opposites Attract/Billionaire Romance/Politics.
✔ It's safe to say I am girl crushing over Beth. She is super strong, caring and clumsily funny.
✔ Harrison is super swooningly cheekily hot.
✔ Their meets were sooooo cute and the way they kept finishing their sentences gave total warm melty feelings.
✔ I loved Harisson's bond with his brother's.
✔ Other than MC's my favourite of the lot was Eddie. He was as cheekily swoony and funny as Harrison.
✔ This book gave me total Cinderella feels, with a bit of suspense, heartwarmsies, slow burn and a swoon worthy HEA.
🤔What could have been better -
✔ Oh my the characters list i hate are just increasing, that Vile woman who calls herself their mother was an absolute witch.
📚Who Should read :
👶Beginners
💝Romance Lovers
💼Workplace Romance
💰Billionaire Romance
📈My Rating : 4.5/5
P.s- It's gonna be a treat to read about the other brother's in the near future. (finger's crossed)

This story started out good and strong however went downhill fast when Harrison and Beth moved on to a sexual relationship. Why? Because once that happened this book was mainly sexual scenes. I'm not a prude however when you have chapter after chapter of sex scenes it gets old and boring. They spend the night together so we get a chapter of that and then when they wake up and start again we get another chapter. They go to work and that night we back in the bedroom. I skipped full chapters because this was sex overdose.
Then his mother and Lilly. Why were they never held accountable for everything they did? The mother nearly kills someone and blames Beth and nothing happens to her. Then the situation at the photo shoot. How dumb is Harrison really? He couldn't see what was happening and now he's the Governor.
And if that wasn't bad enough - Beth going missing. The day/night of the election and everyone who worked on the campaign has security coverage except Beth who is the biggest asset to his team. Really? She is missing five hours before anyone says she has a location app on the company phone. DUH!!
Why on earth was Harrison's mother at his wedding after everything she did to Beth? Family does not get the right to cause you hurt and pain and there are times to walk away. This was definitely one of those times.
And Eddie, I liked him but asking Harrison, "so you didn't invite Lilly today?" referring to the wedding. Come on Eddie did you really ask that?
It's too bad so many stupid things took place when the main characters were supposedly intelligent.

Thanks you Greys and Samantha for allowing me to read this book and review it.
This story follows Harrison Rothschild in the race for Governor of Maryland DC. He is a sexy billionaire who was brought up with money but is still very grounded and aware of his privilege. Harrison has always had dreams of making it to the white house and this is his first step toward that dream.
Beth is an event planner who lives in the poorer side of Maryland. She lives with her father who is in a. Wheelchair. They struggle for ends meat and make sure that every penny they spend is spent wisely. So when Beth comes across Harrison for the second time and again spills her drink on him she thinks her life is going to get a whole lot harder. However Harrison has other ideas for her.
When they meet again at the community center for the launch of his governorship. Harrison takes his opportunity and seals it. He gets Beth to work for him on his campaign. Seeing how organised and excellent she is. Harrison didn't want a distraction but Beth is just that and all for the right reasons.
Will he be governor and will theyvsuvive the twists and turns heading their way?? Read it to find out.
This was an excellent read and I seriously didn't want it to end I feel in love with all the characters within this story and can't wait to find out more about them all hopefully in future releases. This is a sexy book with plenty of smut and a great story that keeps you reading.
My Overall Rating is 5 💋💋💋💋💋

The Charming Billionaire: An Opposites Attract Romance (The Baltimore Boys Book 1)
by Samantha Skye
5 stars⭐️
4 spice 🌶️
This is a contemporary romance novel and is also the first book in this series.
This novel is a dual POV, can be read as a standalone. Tropes are; Billionaire politician and right hand woman, aged gap, billionaire romance and opposites attract.
I will start off by saying I really loved Beth and Harrison’s story. Harrison is a hard working man going for governor when his world is flipped upside down when he meets Beth who is a bit clumsy and spills a drink onto him Beth however makes up for the clumsy nature and is a hardworking girl who looks after her father who is in a wheelchair. Harrison sees the potential that Beth has and offers her a 3 month job for his campaign whilst Beth’s boss is on maternity leave after having a baby. Beth and Harrison have instant chemistry which slowly unfolds and giving love a chance to bloom and blossom it also leads to sneaky around until the campaign is over. I also feel like the side characters helped make this book come alive as I often found myself picturing the scenes as I was reading them. I absolutely loved reading this book, the way it was written was amazing and so easy to follow and the cover absolutely stunning. I found I couldn’t put this book down. I am definitely looking forward to reading more of Samatha’s books and definitely looking forward to finishing this series.
This book can also be read as a standalone

I am so in love with this book that I don't know how to express it in words, but here's an attempt anyway:
It's quite rare for me to like both the male and female characters in a romance novel, but the author managed to instantly capture my heart for Beth and Harrison. Right from the beginning, I knew that I would love Beth for her clumsiness yet professional demeanor, and Harrison for being instantly attracted to her.
I loved each and every single interaction between Beth and Harrison. I loved how fully supportive Harrison was, how he not only SAID that he would be there for her but also PROVED it with every time he dropped something and rushed to her even though she told him he didn't need to do that.
Beth was a strong, independent woman who didn't need Harrison, but she wanted him just the same. And Harrison (and the readers) fell head over heels for her as a result.
I loved how Harrison refused to keep silent about his feelings for Beth even in front of his mother, who kept on trying to create chaos for no reason other than the fact that she was a conniving, manipulative, old woman who blamed the entire world for what happened with her dead husband.
Another thing I loved about this book was the relationship between the Rothschild brothers. All four of them were interesting, three-dimensional, and I can't wait to read about them too. I already know I'm going to love them too.

The Charming Billionaire is the first in Samantha Skye's new Baltimore Boys series.
Harrison Rothschild is as privileged as his uptown name suggests. He's old money, fancy education and part of a political family; now he's running for governor of Maryland. He's a shew in, except in some of the poorer areas of Baltimore. His campaign believes he can easily overcome those issues with the charm he's known for with the media. Then the events planner bowls him over, literally.
Beth Longmere is a dedicated events planner in D. C. and while she's amazing at her job, she's more than a little clumsy. She's also unforgettable; guess that's what happens when you literally crash into the nominee for governor on multiple occasions. The chemistry between she and the Ritchie rich running for Maryland governor is electric but they run in different worlds. Harrison Rothschild grew up with no ceiling to his dreams, she's barely keeping a roof over her head. Harrison doesn't care, he sees incredible potential in her and brings her onto his campaign, despite the very real distraction she brings!
I enjoyed this story and it's different layers. There are politics afoot and not just on the actual campaign. The players are fully realized adults which is sadly lacking in so many books lately. The chemistry is great and the brothers are awesome. Looking forward to more from this series.

I enjoyed this book from the beginning to end. It is light hearted, warm, funny, charming, serious, hurtful, loving
and has steamy romance. The characters are wonderful not only the two main ones who are Beth Longmere, an Event Planner, and Harrison Rothschild, a rich candidate running for Governor.
Beth catches Harrison eye and he decides to bring her onboard his Campaign Team as his Event Planner to work closely with Oscar, The Campaign Manager, Eddie, his brother, and, of course, himself. Since she doesn't come from the rich side of town and she feels like a clutch, Beth
is not sure she should take this job.
Eventhough, there are multiple forces against Harrison & Beth becoming a couple, nature has a way of getting individuals togethers when they are meant to be together. WOW! What they go through to become a couple in love.
Do they make it? Is it worth it? Read the book. It's worth reading!
I received a free copy of this for an honest review. I would recommend this book to anybody who enjoys Romance Comedy , Contemporary Romance, and Billionaire Romance books. This book is fun to read because it is a page-turner, easy-to-read and entertaining so grab yourself a copy, a drink of your choice, sit down and have a fun read!.

The Charming Billionaire by Samantha Skye ✨🦋
I have not read a Romance that is set on politics in a while! I absolutely loved this book and the characters 💗
This book follows beth an event planner and she meets the charming billionaire Harrison who is running for a political place. Beth is actually very smart and knows what she’s doing so Harrison decided to hire her to work for him during his campaign. So that is where the story starts, It was kind of like attraction at first sight for both of them which I loveeeeeee!
I loved that beth is very independed and just help people without a second thought. While Harrison was a strong male lead because I could feel his affection for beth even way before they decided to just go for it. I was actually hooked from the first chapter because the chemistry between them was unbelieveable!!! The flow of the story was so good that I did not get bored at all and the thing that happened before the end made me so crazy that I was mentally slapping myself for not noticing it at the beginning 🫣
Overall, I was smilling, swooning, laughing, gushing, and wishing that Harrison’s mother would just move to another planet 🤣 I 100% recommend this book if you guys are looking for a romance that is set on politics! Thank you so much @greyspromo and @samanthaskye for the ARC I had a blast reading it 🤍✨
