MFOB featured book: The Senator’s Wife
After a tragic chain of events led to the deaths of their spouses two years ago, Washington D.C. philanthropist Sloane Chase and Senator Whit Montgomery are finally starting to move on. The horrifying ordeal drew them together, and now they’re ready to settle down again—with each other. As Sloane returns to the world of White House dinners and political small talk, she’s preparing for an upcoming hip replacement—a reminder of the lupus she’s managed since her twenties. The couple decides hiring a home health aide will give Sloane the support she needs post-surgery.
Seemingly a godsend, Athena Karras tends to Sloane and helps her run her charitable foundation. But Sloane begins to deteriorate—a complication, Athena explains, of Sloane’s lupus. As she becomes sicker, uncertainty turns to paranoia as she begins to suspect the worst. Why is Athena asking so many probing questions about her foundation and her past? Could Sloane be imagining the sultry looks between Athena and her new husband?
Riveting, fast-paced, and full of unbelievable twists, The Senator’s Wife upends the private lives of those who walk the halls of power. Because when you have everything, you have everything to lose. In this town, anyone is replaceable….
