This is Washington DC and there’s only one she here.
A smart, standalone contemporary romance from New York Times & USA Today bestselling author Tara Sue Me
For Independent Anna Fitzpatrick, being President of the United States means she’s finally in a place to make a difference. Known for her intellect and charm, she never appears anything other than calm. After getting dumped by the man she’d been living with once he learned of her presidential bid, Anna vows to remain single throughout her term. It's an easy task, after all, no man has ever made her feel the way her law school classmate did years ago. Or at least the way he made her feel until he walked away without so much as a goodbye.
Navin Hazar is content being one of the nation’s top news anchors. It may not be the plan he had for his life, but plans don’t always go as anticipated. Like his plan for no one to find out he knows Anna personally or did know her, once upon a time.
For fifteen years, they’ve been able to ignore each other, but her election to the highest office changes everything. And when Navin inadvertently lands on Anna’s Press Pool, they realize the only thing more aggravating than politics is love.

Is it possible for the first woman president to fall in love without the whole world watching? This is an intriguing romance about Navin and Anna, two successful people, who knew each other in law school and reconnect again.
Anna is now the newly elected president of the United States and Navin is a prominent news anchor, demoted to the presidential press corp. Navin is not happy about his demotion. The one positive about his new position, is being close to Anna again, and just maybe getting a second chance with her.
Navin is smart, charming, successful and quite the catch. He loves his family and is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for them. Navin cares about Anna and is honest and open with her. Unfortunately, Anna isn’t sure who she can trust, so she keeps Navin at arm’s length.
There is so much chemistry flowing between Navin and Anna unfortunately, things never seem to work out between them. I loved these two together and I really wanted them to find their HEA. However, there always seem to forces working against them. There is some intrigue when it is discovered there is a mole in the president’s inner circle.
I thoroughly enjoyed this engaging story and the characters. I found myself quickly turning the pages to find out what would happen next. My only issue was with the ending. I was left with a few questions and would have liked a longer epilogue because I was so invested in the characters, I needed more.
