    About this ebook

    Drowning in debt from obtaining his graduate degree, Elijah Bloom needed a job. None of the positions he applied for were getting back to him, and he was at the end of his rope, so he took a job as a go-go dancer to make ends meet.

    Then, out of the blue, he gets the job offer of a lifetime. A notorious senator reaches out to him, asking Elijah to be his personal assistant. There is an unspoken expectation that Eli feels from the initial interview, but he takes the job, learning later that he'd be assisting in areas he hadn't counted on.

    Lee Madison was rich, spoiled, and knew how to play the Washington game. Lee always gets what he wants, and he wants the beautiful, younger man that danced in the VIP section of the club Lee sometimes frequented, masked and incognito.

    Learning all he could about Eli, Lee was prepared to offer what no one in Eli's position could refuse. He wanted him. He would have him. Screw the consequences.

    Will Eli lose his soul in the swamp that is Washington? Can he change the man that everyone fears? Or will he end up another political pawn?

    PLEASE NOTE: Dark and depraved politicians ahead! Including, but not limited to, a spoiled, rich senator with no morals, a broke college grad in need of a break, and a dangerous, sinister work environment. Also contains consensual BDSM elements.

    I love writing, it's been my dream for many years, and in October of 2013, when my first book went live on Amazon, that dream came true. Writing love stories that are centered on flawed but lovable characters is my passion. Finding love between people isn't easy, nor should it be. Even in a book, there have to be obstacles for the story to feel real. I am a mother of three amazing people, and three adorable fur babies. I live in Colorado but love many other places besides my home. One state in particular is New Mexico, the state where I was born has always held a place in my heart. People and places make my stories what they are. Each character I've written is a part of me in some way. Each place I write is as well. Adventures come in many ways, and each of my stories has taken me on an adventure that I treasure. Come with me on my adventures and fall in love with my characters, as I have. I promise, you will love the ride. www.raincarrington.com https://twitter.com/RainCarrington https://www.facebook.com/rain.carrington https://www.facebook.com/Rain-Carringtons-Bear-Lake-Chronicles-104627634658342 https://www.instagram.com/raincarrington/ https://www.bookbub.com/authors/rain-carrington https://www.queeromanceink.com/mbm-book-author/rain-carrington/ https://mewe.com/i/raincarrington https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7082503.Rain_Carrington https://www.raincarrington.com/newsletter
