Waiting On Wednesday .... Party of Two

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pick is Party of Two by Jasmine Guillory


Here is the Goodreads synopsis
A chance meeting with a handsome stranger turns into a whirlwind affair that gets everyone talking.

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 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?The main character was compared to Jessica Jones in the announcement of this book and I was immediately in. I also love anything Disney so this would have been added to my reading wishlist either way.
Jasmine Guillory's books are always the cutest reads and this one sounds like no exception. I am noticing a trend of politically themed romance novels coming out in the next little bit and I am cautiously looking forward to seeing what they offer. I think Jasmine's going to handle the topic perfectly and I cannot wait to get my hands on this one.

It releases in June which is the season for rom-coms and light reads so hopefully everyone packs this in their (metaphorical) beach bag this year.

Expected release date - June 23, 2020
