Christian "Chili" Alexander is the most sought after campaign consultant at the Pellegrin Morris Firm in New Orleans. Recent Tulane graduate Samantha Pellegrin wants the opportunity to work with the star of her father's firm in the off-year election. As his only child, she'll eventually inherit the firm, but she wants to continue their great track record in the world of politics. Her first day with Chili ends so disastrously, Sam wonders if she'll take up the hobby of throwing darts at Chili's picture. As the campaign progresses, Sam will make Chili work for what both of them want in the most important campaign of both their lives. Only this time their polls have to do more with the romance vote than any politician's future.

Review of 'The romance vote' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

I was pretty disappointed with this book. I think it started out pretty well, I liked the characters, the chemistry was heating up a bit, the central couple were working toward coming together in a fairly believable way, and I was thinking this would be a good, light romance. Exactly what I was hoping for.

But about halfway through, everything fell apart for me. The "avoid the romance with this woman at all costs" thing was forgotten in literally a second and from then on out it was a trail of deception that, to me made absolutely no sense and seemed to go against character for both of the leads. That went on until nearly the very end when, without really explaining how things were resolved, everyone lives happily ever after.

I think this will be my last attempt at a new Vali book.
