Publisher Description
'Smart, sexy, funny and so sharply written. A total freaking delight.' Carley Fortune, bestselling author of Every Summer After
School librarian Alexis usually keeps out of the spotlight. But when she's dumped for being too meek in bed, she decides it's time for a change.
Enter Logan, the mysterious stranger she meets at a hotel bar. Foul-mouthed, funny and forward, he's Alexis' opposite – and wow, do opposites attract.
But the next day, Alexis finds her face splashed all over the news. It turns out her mysterious stranger is Logan Arthur, the hotshot candidate running for Texas governor. And they were photographed leaving the hotel together.
A scandalous one-night-stand could sink Logan's career, so there's only one thing for it: Alexis must pretend to be his long-term girlfriend until election night.
A shy librarian in a fake relationship with a hot politician for two long months… What could possibly go wrong?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Winstead (Fool Me Once) brings both hilarity and heartfelt moments to this rousing rom-com. Elementary school librarian Alexis Stone is reeling from the rejection of her ex-boyfriend (who called her "a dud" in bed) and determined to take control of her life and relationships—starting with having her first one-night stand. But the sexy stranger she meets at a bar turns out to be Texas democratic gubernatorial candidate Logan Arthur, and their encounter lands them in a paparazzi firestorm. As damage control, Logan's campaign wants the pair to fake a relationship. Naturally introverted, Alexis finds herself thrust into the public eye amid tense Texas politics and discovers that she is more than a "mousy" librarian. Meanwhile, Logan, who is fierce and passionate in the political arena, struggles with insecurity in his personal life. To make a difference in the Lone Star State—and find lasting love—they'll have to work together. Readers will cheer Alexis on her path to discovering her inner strength and swoon over idealistic Logan. This is a winner .
