DARK PARADISE - A Political Romantic Suspense - Plot & Excerpts
Araminta reaches for the remote to shut off the TV. The White House has interrupted our programming to bring us a special message from the POTUS himself. “No, no.” I take it from her. “We have to stay up on this. Being able to discuss foreign policy and the state of the union is what separates us from the herd.” President Harris Montgomery gives an update on a recent bombing in the Middle East. They all blend together anymore, each one seeming to be worse than the one before. I listen intently as he commands the airwaves, his forehead wrinkled and his lips turned down at the corners as he maintains composure. He seems annoyed, and his speech feels heartfelt this time, not written. Araminta pulls in a shocked breath. “Twelve hundred civilians lost their lives.” “Montgomery wants us to go to war,” I say as he rambles on. “Did he say that? I must have missed it.” “You can tell,” I say. “He’s leaning that way. He’s hinting. There’s always more in what they don’t say than what they do.”
