Summary

Yesterday, he had it all: a beautiful woman at his side, more money than he knew what to do with, and a real shot at the Oval Office. Today, he's a murderer. Yesterday, she was America's sweetheart: the wholesome first daughter of a beloved former president, a rising star without so much as a whisper of a scandal attached to her name. Today, she's an accomplice.

Vanessa doesn't know why these words flew out of her mouth when Charles is accused of murdering his wife in cold blood, but she's said them, and she isn't taking them back.

"He was with me all night."

Absolutely Wicked!

Loved this story line, I was dying to know what happened next without feeling thriller-level stress. A perfect blend.

Loved the lead characters. May Sage's leading ladies always have a bit of sauce and strong spine. Vanessa was no different though the extent of her spine actually surprised me at times. A really good surprise! Charles was just lovable. I love that he was the naive one of the two and still he managed to be all manly. Great balance.

Loved the extended length of this book too. I love May Sage but her books are often so short. This one is longer than her usual and even more enjoyable as I have more time to fall in love with the characters and become part of their world.
Please write more in this world!

What a wonderful exciting new book!

Power Games by May Sage
Narrated by Sebastian York and Virginia Rose
Five Stars
This is the first book I have listened to by May Sage, but definitely won’t be the last. Power Games is a fast paced political love story, where you can never decide who is telling the truth. I loved how it kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen until the very end. Sebastian and Virginia really brought the characters to life and their voice blended well together. This whole reading/listening experience was a delight. I’m looking forward to listening/reading to more of Ms. Sage’s books in the future.

This forbidden love was worth the credit

Its definitely a slow burn with a lot of drama. Feels like I read a series rather than a standalone. That was a nice change. I will say had the hea part been longer it would have been more gratifying but you can't have everything and this book came close. The narration was spot on and couldn't have been any better in my opinion

Great Listen

Charles is happy in his loveless marriage until he meets Vanessa. She is everything his wife is not and what he thinks he wants. They keep in contact and don't want to cross the lines. That is until his wife is murdered and Vanessa lies to save him. This book is full of political games and suspense. Great story. Great Narration.

Power PLAY

I LOVED this book. So sexy! I've never listened to an audio book by May Sage but will differently seek out more - Sebastian York is my FAVORITE narrator, and Virginia Rose was a terrific match giving the characters individual personalities.
Charles has worked hard all his life. From soldier, CEO, stuck in a loveless marriage with various addictions, and being suspected of murder - he can't help but stop thinking about Vanessa.
Vanessa - personable, America's former first daughter, with a wholesome image as a singer/song writer on the rise. Now, she's an accomplice.
Charles thinks that all Vanessa wants is to be his first lady, but Vanessa hates being in the lime light and ruthless games of politics and Charles will have to wise up to realize that what she really wants is Charles. Problem is, he too has a bulls eye on his back and she feels compelled to rescue him...

A Great duet performance!

I love a duet performance in audiobooks and I really love when it is delivered by sexy gravelly voice Sebastian York! His delivery along with Virginia Roses' narration made this audiobook worth listening to in and of itself.

This story is fast paced and full of suspense. Games are afoot and not all the true players are revealed until the very end. But their is much at stake in this revolving power struggle and winner takes all. Amidst love, death and political games a romance waits in the wings but someone wants to play power games and threaten the lover's HEA.

This was a nice listen especially if you love a duet like I do.

A great political thriller

This story is nothing like I thought it was gonna be I thought it would be more about the murder of Charles wife but it was so much more than that. I felt sad that Charles and his wife had such a bad marriage but did nothing to solve the problems they were so bad for each other. So when Charles meets Vanessa you could feel the sparks. It was a shame and a waste of time that it took them so long to do something about their situation but I could understand that running for president any scandal can be used against you. This had so much great story telling even being from the UK I did not get lost with all the US politics. It had plenty of twists and turns and kept me very entertained.

The narration was fantastic loved the duet style my first with Sebastian York and him and Virginia Rose did a great job keeping the story flowing.

I hope the next book comes out soon and I enjoyed this one so much and need more.x

Great Story! Great Audible Listen!🎧

‘Power Games’ is an enjoyable, well written, fast paced story with lots of drama, mystery, suspense, twists and heated romance. Characters are interesting and well developed, interesting storylines as well. Politics, deceit, lies & murder! This is my first book form May Sage and it will not be my last. She knows how to capture her readers attention and hold it to very very end. Thank you for this great read.

I listened to the Audible edition, the super talented Sebastian York and Virginia Rose are wonderful narrators & storytellers. They perform well together and bring the characters to life while adding the perfect amount of dramatic flair. Thank you for the great listen.

Thank you 🎧AudiobookObsession

Romantic suspense at it's best!

Mystery, suspense, politics and romance, what a combination May Sage has put together in this romantic thriller! Charles is stuck in a lifeless marriage with a woman who enjoys her share of men. When he meets Vanessa, he knows she is special and values her friendship as they get to know each other. Now years later, he is getting divorced, and they can finally act on their attraction. With political aspirations of being president, Charles is ready to move forward, only to have now find out his wife is murdered and he is a suspect! This thrilling story is full of intrigue and suspense. The intricate web of lies, deceit, affairs, and love all culminates to an answer that you least expect! It's a great romance and the story is one that keeps you on the edge til the end. I love this genre, it's my absolute favorite and May Sage has nailed it!

Virginia Rose and Sebastian York narrate the story in duet. It's a fantastic listen as always, these two are amazing together. They have good chemistry and the flow of the conversations is as if they are actually living the story. This is a wonderful listen.
