Political Outsiders

Ebook Available for Pre-Order on Amazon

A scandal detonates a local congressional race, forcing both major-party candidates to drop out—and leaving voters disillusioned on all sides.

With only a month until Election Day, no one expects an independent to stand a chance.

Let alone two.

Former teacher and bestselling romance author Allie Haas steps into the race with nothing but conviction, a loyal community, and a flood of small-dollar donations.

Across town, Air Force veteran and JAG attorney turned State Representative Mike Dalton launches his own bid—backed by corporate money eager to secure favor from an experienced insider.

They should be rivals.

They were supposed to be enemies on the debate stage.

But when brutal schedules, dwindling resources, and their shared belief in honest, informed choice collide, Allie and Mike do the unthinkable:

They join forces.

They run together.

What begins as a bold, unprecedented strategy quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Their chemistry ignites. Rumors swirl. And the closer they get—to victory and to each other—the more they draw the attention of someone who has waited years for the perfect moment to strike.

Now, with campaign ads running nonstop and national media watching their every move, an unseen enemy finally steps out of the shadows…

And this time, the real scandal might be fatal.
