FFS: Politically Correct
Mia Verita is living life Forty, Female, Single, (and finally free). After a painful divorce leaves her unemployed and battling self-doubt, she sets her sights on something flipping a long-held red seat in the Texas legislature. With no political background, a dwindling bank account, and ghosts from her past tracking her every move, Mia steps onto the campaign trail determined to spark change.
But life doesn't pause for politics. Between run-ins with Maxwell Graham, her ex's ruthless attorney, the aching absence of her beloved dog, and old wounds reopening, Mia must confront her past to fight for her future.
Meanwhile, her opponent is dining on lobbyist's dimes, when he isn't crafting legislation to drag Texas back to the 1960s. To make matters worse, he shares a common interest with Mia's ex-husband to do more than damage her campaign.
Can she win the race? Or maybe find something even more powerful along the way?

What makes this novel shine is its balance. It’s neither political satire nor partisan soapbox, but an intimate look at courage, reinvention, and the messy humanity behind modern politics. Stone’s prose crackles with wit and empathy; her characters—especially Mia and her formidable foes—feel strikingly real.
Beneath the sharp dialogue and brisk pacing lies a deeply relatable journey of resilience and self-definition. FFS: Politically Correct manages to be funny, biting, and uplifting all at once—an empowering story about what it means to choose your own future, on your own terms.

October 26, 2025Gia Stone’s FFS: Politically Correct is a sharp, fast-moving standout—part personal reawakening,
part campaign-trail odyssey, and entirely irresistible. Following Mia Verita—Forty, Female,
Single, and finally free—Stone crafts a story that hums with invigorating honesty and a wonderfully
confident narrative voice. The result is a read that’s funny and biting, yet unafraid to explore
darker moments without ever feeling heavy-handed.
What makes this book sing is its balance. It’s not political satire, and it’s not a partisan screed—thankfully.
Instead, Stone offers an intriguing behind-the-scenes view of modern politics that feels personal, pointed, and
utterly relatable. The phrases snap with energy; more than once, you’ll find yourself pausing to appreciate a
line that lands like a wink and a gut-punch at once. It’s a rare feat to be both entertaining and thoughtful,
but Stone manages it with ease.
Mia’s journey—through a painful divorce, a quixotic campaign, and the minefields of reputation and resilience—feels
authentic and meaningful. As a man, I found the story genuinely empowering for women without ever lapsing into didacticism.
It charts a direction for political courage that feels humane and grounded: neither left nor right, but honest, personal,
and forward-looking. The depiction of 21st-century politics invites you to shake your head, smile,
and think harder—often all at once.
Structurally, the book is a joy to read. The pacing moves quickly, and the beautifully written subheadings under each
chapter act like a thoughtful guide—nudging the reader toward what matters without telegraphing the next beat.
The tone is confident and compassionate, with just enough darkness to lend weight and stakes. Even the antagonists—like Maxwell Graham,
the ex’s ruthless attorney—feel like living, breathing presences rather than cardboard foils.
Perhaps most refreshing: there’s no sense of hidden agenda here. Stone seems intent on telling real stories about
real people—stories that make you think, smile, and occasionally shake your head at the absurdity of it all.
And by the end, you’re left with a question that’s more satisfying than a simple win-or-lose: What does it mean to choose
your future on your own terms?
FFS: Politically Correct is lively, heartfelt, and smart—an empowering, contemporary novel with bite. I’m very much
looking forward to the next installment in Pride and Politics.

FFS: Politically Correct is a smart, heartfelt, sharply observed story about reinvention, resilience, and rising from the ashes with grit and humor. Mia Verita is the kind of heroine readers root for instantly flawed, sincere, fed up, and finally ready to take charge of her own life after divorce leaves her adrift. Her decision to run for office with zero political experience is both inspiring and deeply relatable, and the book balances her personal recovery with the chaos of modern politics in a way that feels authentic and compelling.
The tension with her ex’s attorney, the emotional weight of losing her dog, and the ghosts from her past all add layers to Mia’s journey. Meanwhile, her opponent funded by lobbyists and clinging to outdated ideals creates the perfect foil, raising the stakes with every chapter. Mia’s path is messy, brave, and full of heart, offering readers a story that blends political drama, personal growth, and the spark of something new and powerful emerging from heartbreak.

This is such a fun inspirational read. All the characters felt so real and fleshed out. I felt like I actually knew them and I was cheering Mia on really hoping for a HEA for her. I especially loved Ginger. Everyone needs a best friend like her. I also enjoyed learning about political office. I feel everyone thinks they know about politics but this behind the scenes view showed me there is so much more going on. I hope there are more books in this series because I want to know what happens next for Mia.
