About this book

When a beautiful political heiress invites Belle to a quiet New Year's at a family Bay house, she brings a black dress, a silk scarf, and a very clear idea of who is in charge. The weekend opens with martinis on Capitol Hill and ends with candles, chocolate, and a living room that turns into a theater of pleasure. In between, there is a steam shower that becomes a vow of service, a human buffet that proves how much an audience can change a pulse, and a dinner where good behavior is rewarded and bratty behavior is handled.This is a female-led, high-spice chapter from Capital Ties, written for readers who want a confident heroine who never asks for permission. The story centers sapphic desire and service submission, with consent front and center, and with the dry wit and D.C. insider energy that define the full collection. Think Sex and the City for Washington lifers with more power in their throats and more secrets in their pockets, with a Fleabag edge and a dominant woman who does not apologize for wanting what she wants.
