Dating is the last thing on Olivia Monroeâ??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 is surprised to find that Max is sweet, funny, and nobleâ??not just some privileged white politician, as she assumed him to be. Because of Maxâ??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

I really liked the premise - lawyer meets and falls for up-and-coming Senator. Lots of food porn in here too which I didn't realize until recently how much I enjoy reading about people enjoying food. The writing wasn't my favorite, the dialogue was awkward to read far too often. All the writing about food, though, was stellar. ( )

This was cute! It reminded me a lot of the OG book The Wedding Date when so much of the romance centered around eating junk food together! I really like that first book by Guillory but was harder for me to warm up to the characters in the other book of hers that I've read (The Proposal) (I suspect that has more to do with me than her and is more about my mood when reading them than anything else.)

But like I said, I enjoyed this one even if it's a little bit of a crazy plot and I'm reading mostly to escape from politics right now. (Although I admit I do know who Cory Booker is dating and would happily look at paparazzi photos of them!)

Perhaps a questionable choice for a long election week, but this was cute. Lots of food, as per other Guillory outings. The fantasy of a hot boyfriend who's also a senator that listens? Yes please. ( )

When Olive moves home to California, it's to start her own law firm--not to fall in love. But then she meets the engaging Max in a bar. Turns out Max happens to be one of California's Senator. A fun little rom-com about dating someone famous. ( )

Another lovely rom-com from Jasmine Guillory. Her characters are complicated, her world is diverse, and the sex is hot. That said, I hope that she will feature a queer couple as the main characters in a future novel. ( )
