When her pedophile candidate crashes and burns Gia accepts that her life as a hotshot campaign manager is over. Given the profoundly corrupt candidate who is now a shoe-in to win, Logan challenges her to run for the office--something she swore she'd never do. When Logan refuses to take no for an answer, for better or worse, Gia concedes.
Shocked at Gia's entry into what he'd assumed would be a walk in the park campaign, her hapless political opponent brazenly labels Logan her sugar daddy. He ups the ante claiming that Gia sold her body to get his financial support. Given Logan's special operative background, it was an unwise move at best.
In his former Special Operative career, lying and lying well was often a matter of life and death. Logan admits it's questionable if that excuses his lies of omission to Gia regarding his current operation. He has to hope what's usually considered dishonorable isn't when the life and well-being of the woman he's deeply in love with is at stake.
Logan is an entrepreneurial genius, accustomed to ruling every arena he chooses to enter. No shrinking violet, Gia rules her life with an iron hand. It's not surprising that occasionally in public and, particularly behind closed doors, their relationship is an explosion waiting to happen.
Gia admits the problem with Logan's commanding arrogance, in addition to annoying the hell out of her, it also turns her on.

My stories are the stories of my heritage. From the residue in my blender of mixed races, cultures and world views, my characters emerge. My penchant to root around in the past is a blessing. It comforts me to know that while evil slinks in the shadows, the warriors of the world sniff it out -- and snuff it out. Can it be so simple? Deshi (The Joker Is Wild) asks in disbelief, "That's the goal of the Grandmasters? To stamp out evil? Sorry, Father, I prefer poker. It has better odds." Ah, youth. Fortunately there is love and, yes, it does conquer all, but not without a hell of a fight --- at least for my warrior men and women. I am as real as the words on the page. -- Taylor Lee
