Ronnie likes the idea of being Senator Lewis Honneker s wife a whole lot more than she actually likes being married to him. She loves the power， the prestige， and of course the wealth and all of the comforts and beautiful things that he provides. But Ronnie is acutely lonely. Her husband is not the man she thought he was， and although long accustomed to it， Ronnie despises the strain of the campaign trail--especially the constant facade and total lack of privacy. If those problems weren t enough， Lewis s voters despise Ronnie. As the younger， sexy， second wife， the senator s loyal constituency think that Ronnie broke up his first marriage. Because Lewis is up for reelection， expert political consultant Tom Quinlan is brought in to change Ronnie s image. He finds the task to be far more of a challenge then he expected--not only because Ronnie is difficult to direct， but also because the two can t keep their hands off each other. When the senator is found murdered and Ronnie is accused of the crime， only Tom believes she is innocent. The two work together to uncover the senator s sordid secrets.
