Delectable
Graham Whitmore was born into legacy. Son of a Secretary of State and an ambassador, he’s done everything right—Harvard, Yale Law, and now a congressional run for Rhode Island’s 1st District. But under all that polish, he’s hiding a he’s been quietly obsessed for years with gay adult film star Jesse Ryder.
Weston “Wes” Knox walked away from porn to reclaim his life. He’s charming, unapologetic, and tired of being seen as just Jesse Ryder. Then, at a university fundraiser, his reckless mouth lands him in trouble when he jokes that he’ll marry the man who doubles the bid for a date with him.
Graham—drunk, lonely, and far too intrigued—takes him at his word.
Now the cameras are rolling, the campaign’s on fire, and the marriage is very real. Was it a stunt… or the truest thing either man has ever done?
A queer political romance of power, desire, and public scandal. Contains emotionally charged and explicit sexual scenes. For mature readers.

This might be my favorite from this author yet. It’s definitely the funniest one, there were a few times I laughed out loud. Graham and Wes are a total disaster in the best way, and the chemistry is just there. I also really liked how real the family stuff felt. The parents aren’t idealized; those relationships are messy, complicated, and believable.
Plus, the settings felt super authentic. You can tell the author actually knows D.C. and Rhode Island instead of just faking the politics and scenery. Smart, funny, and way more heartfelt than I expected. Loved it.

Cute story
I actually purchased this book based on a Facebook ad. I know I thought that was a dumb idea too but it intrigued me so I went with it. I’m really glad I did. It’s a fun little story and I would have gladly read more!! It’s fun and funny and spicy too. If you don’t take your books too seriously and just want to have fun with your reading you might enjoy too. I sure did.

this was amazing
Omg why aren’t there more reviews on this book than there are?! It was fantastic. I loved both characters so much and how much they supported each other. I laughed so much during this book. It was the best political romance I’ve ever read. I didn’t want it to end. I need more of these characters
