When we first see our heroine, Sammy, she's on a boat in the Potomac, celebrating her triumph. Her team won, and she's now in the White House as special assistant to the Vice President. But the celebration is short–lived as Sammy finds herself enmeshed in a scandal that threatens to destroy not just the newly elected Democratic administration, but her ideals. And all the while, she's growing increasingly estranged from her Washington Post reporter boyfriend. This is another Kristin Gore triumph–smart, funny, fast–paced, and filled with insider details that only the daughter of a Vice President could know and only a writer of Gore's talents could convey.
