Courtship

July 27, 2015
Taite (Switchblade) keeps the stakes high as two beautiful and brilliant women fueled by professional ambitions face daunting emotional choices. Law school dean Addison Riley realizes just how uninspiring her current relationship is when a brief encounter with campaign advisor Julia Scott makes her heart zing. Julia, now in charge of getting the president's hand-picked choice to replace the recently deceased Supreme Court Chief Justice, soon finds Addison's name on the shortlist of candidates. Admittedly taken by Addison's beauty and sharp mind, Julia finds herself in a precarious position both professionally and personally, as a past betrayal has left her ever vigilant of her reputation. As backroom politics, secrets, betrayals, and threats race to be resolved without political damage to the president, the cat-and-mouse relationship game between Addison and Julia has the reader rooting for them. Taite prolongs the fever-pitch tension to the final pages. This pleasant read with intelligent heroines, snappy dialogue, and political suspense will satisfy Taite's devoted fans and new readers alike.
