Description
Bloomsbury presents The Boyfriend Candidate by Ashley Winstead, read by Ann Marie Gideon.
THE BOYFRIEND CANDIDATE is a total freaking delight. It's smart, sexy, funny and so sharply written.'
- Carley Fortune, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Meet Me at the Lake
A laugh-out-loud rom-com about learning to embrace living outside your comfort zone.
As a shy school librarian, Alexis Stone is comfortable keeping out of the spotlight. But when she's dumped for being too meek-in bed!-she decides she needs to change. And what better way to kick-start her new more adventurous life than with her first one-night stand?
Enter Logan, the gorgeous, foul-mouthed stranger she meets at a hotel bar. Audacious and filterless, Logan is Alexis's opposite-and boy, do opposites attract! Just as she's about to fulfill her hookup wish, the hotel catches fire in a freak lightning storm. In their rush to escape, Logan is discovered carrying her into the street, where people are waiting with cameras. Cameras Logan promptly-and shockingly-flees.
Alexis is bewildered until suddenly pictures of her and Logan escaping the fire are all over the internet. Turns out Logan is none other than Logan Arthur, the hotshot candidate challenging the Texas governor's seat. The salacious scandal is poised to sink his career-and jeopardize Alexis's job-until a solution is proposed: he and Alexis could pretend to be in a relationship until election day…in two months. What could possibly go wrong?
'Charming, swoony, and utterly unputdownable. I LOVE this book!'
- Lynn Painter, New York Times bestselling author of Better Than the Movies

Praise for THE BOYFRIEND CANDIDATE:
“Winstead brings both hilarity and heartfelt moments to this rousing rom-com. Readers will cheer Alexis on her path to discovering her inner strength and swoon over idealistic Logan. This is a winner.”-Publishers Weekly, *STARRED review*
“Told in Alexis' fresh first-person voice, this heartwarming romance has both poignant introspection and a hero who sacrifices his dignity when faced with kittens and gerbils.”-BookPage, *STARRED review*
“This is a fast-paced, hard-to-put-down novel whose happily-ever-after isn't what readers will expect; it's better.”-Library Journal, *STARRED review*
“The Boyfriend Candidate catches fire, sizzles throughout and then bursts into flames. Highly recommend!”-ABBY JIMENEZ, New York Times bestselling author of Part of Your World
“Mixing political and romantic intrigue, Winstead's novel combines the darker side of politics with the lighter side of life. With a few steamy encounters and a ripped-from-the-headlines feel, The Boyfriend Candidate will appeal to fans of Lianne Moriarty, Ellen Meister, Amy Mason Doan, and anyone looking for a little more escapism in their political diet.”-Booklist

“The Boyfriend Candidate is everything I've ever wanted in a romance. Charming, swoony, and utterly unputdownable. I LOVE this book (and also Logan Arthur)!”-LYNN PAINTER, New York Times bestselling author of Better Than the Movies
