SynopsisFrom the former Communications Director for the White House and current political media strategist comes a suspenseful and smart commercial novel about the first female president and all dramas and deceptions she faces both in politics and in love. Eighteen Acres, a description used by political insiders when referring to the White House complex, follows the first female President of the United States, Charlotte Kramer, and her staff as they take on dangerous threats from abroad and within her very own cabinet. Charlotte Kramer, the 45th US President, Melanie Kingston, the White House chief of staff, and Dale Smith, a White House correspondent for one of the networks are all working tirelessly on Charlotte's campaign for re-election. At the very moment when they should have been securing success, though, Kramer's White House implodes under rumors of her husband's infidelity and grave errors of judgment on the part of her closest national security advisor. In an upheaval that threatens not only the presidency, but the safety of the American people, Charlotte must fight to regain her footing and protect the the country she has given her life to serving. Eighteen Acres combines political and family drama into one un-put-downable novel. It is a smart, juicy and fast-paced read that we're sure fans of commercial women's fiction will fall in total love with.

  • Beach Read

    This is a cute little story about the first woman to become President of the United States. A romance, some typical conflicts, and an ending which lets you wonder about the next book in the series. It is a commercially written book but not good literature. Take it to the beach with you.

  • Interesting fictional treatment of modern day Presidential problems and politics

    Wallace's writing is informed by her previous jobs as Comms Director for GWB and advisor for the McCain campaign. Political junkies of both red and blue stripe will enjoy this book. So far, the second book "It's Classified," is even better.

  • Fast read with insider knowledge

    If you like political novels, you'll enjoy this one. Written by someone who has obviously been there, it moves along at a fast pace with interesting characters. It is the first of three novels set with the same president in power, and will definitely move you to go on to the next one.
