Jo Carson has spent months biting her tongue and biding her time working in Mayor Madeline Stratton's office. That she doesn't share the mayor's politics is her secret, and it's not the only secret she's keeping in conservative Oklahoma City.

Madeline Stratton believes that you reap what you sow. Yes, she has allowed her marriage to become one of bitter expedience, but she is devastated by the magnitude and viciousness of her husband's sudden scandal that erupts into off-color headlines and late night comedy routines.

When her young staffer offers a hideout no one will suspect she gratefully accepts--and finds Jo's sympathy and advice increasingly useful and needed. Until one night feelings far beyond gratitude will no longer go away...
