Who needs love when you have money?

It used to be enough, but now it’s not.

Not since he walked into my life and made me question everything.

Now I want more, but I know that’s impossible.

Things aren’t always as they seem.

My true self is hidden, and that works for me.

Or it did.

I hide in a bed of deception to disguise myself, and I’m good at it.

Or I was.

I’m Elizabeth Fitzgerald.

I’m a Senator’s wife.

And I hate my life.







After a few minutes, he says, “I know there’s more to you, Elizabeth. I can tell there’s someone hidden inside you dying to come out. I can see it in the fake smile you show everyone, including Cal, the way you frown when you’re alone in your thoughts, and the sadness that’s lurking in your eyes. Why are you hiding?”

God help me, but there’s something in the way he speaks to me that makes me want to lay all my secrets and sins bare. He’s soft and gentle, but most importantly, I believe he wants to know more about me. He’s not asking to gain leverage or use it to his advantage, he’s genuinely concerned. And it makes me want to tell him everything. But the rational side of my brain tells me not to, so I reel in this strange impulse to divulge my secrets to a man I hardly know.















Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆

Elizabeth learned a lesson in life that you marry for money because love doesn't pay the bills. Elizabeth is married to Callahan Fitzgerald, she had faith that Cal could turn the economy around and get back to work. Cal is thinking about running for presidency. He only cares about his own pleasure and not about Elizabeth's. Someone broke into Cal and Elizabeth's house, so he hired security. Alex is hired to protect Elizabeth,when Cal's mother comes to stay with them for a couple of days, Elizabeth doesn't like his mother because she always talks down to her. Alex takes her hiking to get away from things.

Elizabeth is 29 years old, she comes from a poor family. Callahan Fitzgerald is a senator, he is a strategist, he is a very mean person, he is also a cheater, 36 years old. Aaron is Cal's chief adviser. he wants to use Elizabeth coming from a poor family to get poor people votes. Alex used to be in the military, he is a very nice person as well.


This is my first book by Rachael Duncan and it most definitely will not be my last. This book is very well written and the characters were very well developed. I couldn't put this book down. I can't wait for the next book in this series.
