For fans of the New Camelot series by Sierra Simone and Kennedy Ryan's All the King's Men duet, comes The Illusion of Power. A spicy, contemporary romance that follows future First Lady, Selene Taylor, during the integral months of her husband's campaign for the Oval where she finds herself navigating the embarrassment of his infidelity, the dangers of being a Black woman in proximity to political power, and perhaps worst of all, falling for the two men tasked with protecting her.
A Black romance about power, politics, intimacy, identity, and what it means to be fully seen.
It's about Selene, Cal, and Beck, three people navigating trauma, legacy, love, and the complicated ways we try to protect ourselves while still wanting to be chosen. Wanting to be loved. Needing it.
