“A fun read with a good mix of politics and romance. You will love “meeting” David Madison as he goes from depressed veteran, to aspiring artist to single parent and finally a venture into politics. His political opponent is a corrupt politician as well as someone from David’s past. There are many twists and turns as these very different men campaign against each other. Two women are in David’s life and he is struggling with the difficult choice of who he is truly in love with. To quote from the book “Being pursued by two beautiful women who are in love with you is a more dangerous minefield than politics.” There are surprises throughout the story and I found myself unable to stop reading until I got to the conclusion. ”

“I do hope you will continue to write more novels, perhaps even continuing to follow David Madison or even branching off to Katherine Coyle, whose strength could be a role model for young women. No matter what you decide to write about, I will definitely buy it and pass the word along to friends.”
