- Not the plan : a novel / by De Cadenet, Gia,author.;
"Back Isadora Maris loves her job. And she's damn good at it. After nearly a decade in state politics, stonewalling senators and aggressive lobbyists are no match for her diplomacy and unflappable commitment to her principles. If all goes according to plan, she'll be managing her boss's successful race for U.S. representative and finally fulfilling her dream: congressional aide in Washington, D.C., where she can really make a difference. But Isadora's cool professionalism is knocked off kilter when she meets Karim Sarda, the newly-hired legislative director of her boss's biggest political rival-and the biggest pain in her neck. He's gorgeous, brilliant, and seems to share many of her ideals. So why's he working for the California senate's most notorious jerk? Given their bosses' fierce political rivalry despite being on the same side of the aisle, Isadora deems Karim off limits, despite the heat she feels whenever he's in the room. Her fear of tarnishing her reputation by flirting with the enemy is compounded by the fact that she was taught to believe nothing she ever did was good enough. Karim knows that struggle all too well: He's still processing the wounds left by his former marriage. As the late nights working together on an ambitious healthcare bill add up, both start to realize that maybe their biggest rival might also be the one who knows-and loves-them best"--- Subjects: Romance fiction.; Novels.; African American women; Borderline personality disorder; Man-woman relationships; Political campaigns; Politicians; Racially mixed people;

- True crimes and misdemeanors : the investigation of Donald Trump / by Toobin, Jeffrey,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Donald Trump's campaign chairman went to jail. So did his personal lawyer. His long-time political consigliere was convicted of serious federal crimes, and his national security advisor pled guilty to others. Several Russian spies were indicted in absentia. Career intelligence agents and military officers were alarmed enough by the president's actions that they alerted senior government officials and ignited the impeachment process. Yet despite all this, a years-long inquiry led by special counsel Robert Mueller, and the third impeachment of a president in American history, Donald Trump survived to run for re-election. Why? Jeffrey Toobin's highly entertaining definitive account of the Mueller investigation and the impeachment of the president takes readers behind the scenes of the epic legal and political struggle to call Trump to account for his misdeeds. With his superb storytelling and analytic skills Toobin recounts all the mind-boggling twists and turns in the case--Trump's son met with a Russian operative promising Kremlin support! Trump paid a porn star $130,000 to hush up an affair! Rudy Giuliani and a pair of shady Ukrainian-American businessmen got the Justice Department to look at Russian-created conspiracy theories! Toobin shows how Trump's canny lawyers used Mueller's famous integrity against him, and how Trump's bullying and bluster cowed Republican legislators into ignoring the clear evidence of the impeachment hearings. Based on dozens of interviews with prosecutors in Mueller's office, Trump's legal team, Congressional investigators, White House staffers, and several of the key players, including some who are now in prison, True Crimes and Misdemeanors is a revelatory narrative that makes sense of the seemingly endless chaos of the Trump years. Filled with never-before-reported details of the high-stakes legal battles and political machinations, the book weaves a tale of a rogue president guilty of historic misconduct, and how he got away with it."--- Subjects: Mueller, Robert S., III, 1944-; Trump, Donald, 1946-; Trump, Donald, 1946-; Corruption investigation; Elections; Governmental investigations; Political campaigns; Presidents;
