The second novel in the Valerie Series brings new conflicts to our odd couple as a face from the past threatens to disrupt Valerie and Max's future before it has really begun.
With an unexpected leadership election called in Westminster, the race is on to decide the next PM. Valerie Smythe MP is out of favour with her colleagues and has no desire to get involved in the campaign - until events make it unavoidable.
Valerie's daughter Amy takes centre stage as the battles for Valerie's loyalties grow more intense. At the same time, Max is questioning their future as a family, and the wrong answer to the right question could ruin everything.
Can Valerie make a difference to the leadership campaign and still come out of it with her relationships unscathed?
