This was a sweet, love story about two people meant to be together and their road to finding happiness. It was my first time reading a book by this author and I really enjoyed it. The editing was excellent and I liked the characters. I certainly recommend this book!
Tara Mills is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine, and The Senator’s Wife is another reason why. As the wife of a senator whose platform she firmly believes in, Justine Hubbard is willing to put her happiness on hold to see him reelected. But her husband has fidelity problems that are not only embarrassing for Justine, they’ve also made her self-conscious and regretting the sacrifices she’s made for him.
Photographer Sean O’Donnell is taken with the vulnerability he sees in Justine from the moment of their first meeting. As their attraction blooms, they’ll both be forced to decide if honor is more valuable than love.
This is a terrific romance that will keep you turning pages with fingers crossed for their HEA.
THE SENATOR’S WIFE by Tara Mills is a contemporary, adult, romance novella focusing on Senator’s wife Justine Hubbard, and photographer Sean O’Donnell.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Justine and Sean) THE SENATOR’S WIFE focuses on the building relationship between Senator’s wife Justine Hubbard, and photographer Sean O’Donnell. Justine Hubbard is in a loveless marriage, married to a man whose affairs are numerous but Justine’s husband Gary is running for state Senator, and it wasn’t the time to file for divorce. Meeting photographer Sean O’Donnell stirred something deep within our story line heroine but true to her words, Justine refused to break her vows of marriage regardless of her husband’s infidelity but late-night photography session, and too much champagne found our heroine facing a barrage of paparazzi-someone had leaked photos of our couple together.
THE SENATOR’S WIFE is quick read; a short story that focuses on a loveless marriage, and a sexual woman desperate for love and her own happily ever after Sean O’Donnell knows that to get involved with Justine could mean disaster for her husband’s bid for the Senate but the heart wants something it cannot have. A wonderfully sweet love story where one woman finds true happiness in the arms of another man.
I was totally enthralled with this well written storyline and characters that were so well developed that as I turned each page Justine and Sean kept me totally enamored as their story unfolded! I look forward to reading more from this author!
