Dark Promises

I have a secret ...? I don't care if you like me or not. ? Insatiable lust for power and control runs thick in my veins. My father served as President of the United States of America-and his father before him. Montgomerys are born to lead and rule, to fear nothing and cower to no one, to make allegiances, not friends. ? But I digress.? With a senate campaign about to launch and presidential aspirations at fever-pitch intensity, imagine my dismay when my strategist tells me I need to "settle down" with a "nice girl" in order to appeal to my constituents. ?Enter Rowan Aldridge, a head-turning stunner with a charm school walk, Jackie O. refinement, and a well-connected family. ? She's perfect.? So I'll do what I have to do, make her believe what I need her to believe, and as soon as the campaign's over and I've secured my senatorial seat, I'll release my pretty little butterfly back into the wild. ? But this isn't about all of that. ? This is what happens when a villain falls in love.
