About the Book

She gave him everything.
He gave her January 6.

What would you do if you caught the eye of the most powerful man in the world?

His dealmaking skills are legendary. His prowess with the ladies is well-documented in court filings. His hair is definitely real. He’s the President of the United States of America.

Once she’s been with him, how could any other man ever compete?

In this political novel by brilliant satirist Lord Hugo Dastardly, she’ll have a front-row seat to the most chaotic administration in US history. It’s guaranteed to get MAGA all hot and bothered, even more than AI porn bots or the Beetlejuice musical.
