Accepted Precedent

His power built the walls. Now love threatens to break them down.

Mickey Gallagher has dedicated his life to maintaining the delicate political balance in Washington. But when his boyfriend, Senate-hopeful Andrew Adams, learns he must marry a woman to secure the Maryland seat, the future of their relationship is thrown into jeopardy. Desperate to save his campaign, Andrew's best friend and successful lobbyist, Evelyn Proctor, agrees to temporarily step in.

Except one evening of indulgence blurs the lines of duty and desire.

While Andrew and Evelyn marry as planned, that single night sparks an undeniable bond between Evelyn and Mickey-one that could haunt all of them for years. Loyalties shift. Secrets build. And the cost of survival begins to feel unbearable. With Washington's future in Mickey's hands, being with either of them is a luxury he can't afford.

What began as a short-term political arrangement soon has all three sacrificing their hearts in the name of politics, leaving them bound by a decade of aching desire they can't escape.

Now, as the world they gave up everything to protect threatens to collapse, Mickey must decide if keeping control is worth the price.
