Perfect for readers of Susan Mallery and Rachel Gibson, Molly O’Keefe’s gritty and sensual tale of passion and politics features the brother of the heroine from the author’s beloved novel, Never Been Kissed. He’s a driven man who refuses to be distracted—until he meets a beautiful bartender who just may change his life.
With his chiseled jaw and his thick blond hair, Harrison Montgomery was born to lead. Four generations of Montgomery men have served the state of Georgia and now he’s next in line. Harrison, though, is driven to right wrongs: namely to clean up the political mess left by his father’s greed and corruption. But Harrison must first win his congressional bid, and nothing can get in his way—not even an angel who served him whiskey and gave him a shoulder to lean on and a body to love for a night. Problem is, she’s pregnant. Scandal is brewing and there is only one solution: marriage.
Damage control? Ryan Kaminski can’t believe that a cold, calculating political animal now inhabits the body of the emotionally vulnerable stranger who’d given her the most unforgettable night of her life. Really, she doesn’t want anything from Harrison, except to be left alone to have her baby in peace. But Ryan is broke, jobless, and essentially blackmailed by Harrison’s desperate family to accept this crazy marriage deal. For two years, she will have to act the role of caring, supportive wife. But what is Ryan supposed to do when she realizes that, deep in her heart, she’s falling in love.

An accidental pregnancy and a political scandal for the next congressional golden boy provide the backdrop of Molly O’Keefe’s Indecent Proposal, the next story in the Boys of Bishop series. This story is part of a series, but it can be read as a standalone. Harrison Montgomery is running for office but a one night stand with thirty two year old divorcee Ryan Kaminski and he finds himself scrambling for damage control from the pregnancy that resulted.
One of the most interesting aspects of this book is the exploration of a romance with a public political persona that needs to be cultivated. Ryan’s strength was admirable, she suffers the loss of her job for sleeping with a customer and has to reconcile Harrison the politician with “Harry” her one night stand, added to the fact that his family is so appalled by her lack of political pedigree the can barely contain their disdain. I found her to be refreshing, while I found Harrison to be pompous and arrogant. He was so off-putting I almost found his redemption suspect, but you can’t help but feel sympathy for his background. I did appreciate the way they truly tried to work through their issues to find a middle ground for their child, albeit going about it in an unconventional manner due to the nature of Harrison’s job. I look forward to reading the rest of the Boys of Bishop series!
