Party of Two
A chance meeting with a handsome stranger turns into a whirlwind affair that gets everyone talking in this New York Times bestseller.
Dating is the last thing on Olivia Monroe’s mind when she moves to LA to start her own law firm. But when she meets a gorgeous man at a hotel bar and they spend the entire night flirting, she discovers too late that he is none other than hotshot junior senator Max Powell. Olivia has zero interest in dating a politician, but when a cake arrives at her office with the cutest message, she can’t resist—it is chocolate cake, after all.
Olivia is surprised to find that Max is sweet, funny, and noble—not just some privileged white politician, as she assumed him to be. Because of Max’s high-profile job, they start seeing each other secretly, which leads to clandestine dates and silly disguises. But when they finally go public, the intense media scrutiny means people are now digging up her rocky past and criticizing her job, even her suitability as a trophy girlfriend. Olivia knows what she has with Max is something special, but is it strong enough to survive the heat of the spotlight?

I'm not going to lie, I was very bored in the beginning of this book. I listened to the audiobook, and while I was listening I would be doing other tasks and I would be so bored I'd forget what I was listening to and would just focus on my task at hand. UNTIL the SEX SCENE. MULTIPLE SEX SCENES, they were a little graphic, which I loved, not too graphic though to make me embarrassingly blush. That's when I got right back into the story and I wanted to read more, BUT its not until around the 50% mark of the book that the first scene comes into the story -which is a bummer, since for the first half I wasn't really interested - the lust between the characters are the main reason for giving it 3 stars, really I want to give it 2.5 stars but at the end I did really enjoy the story overall, and I did enjoy the characters, I just feel like it needs something more for me to give it a higher rating than 3 stars.
