'Exclusive' by Sandra Brown

This was airport reading material and I dug it.

Not so fun as Lee Child but far better than many other 'Bestsellers' I've read.

We follow the reporter, Barrie Travis, as she uncovers (or is it that she is the puppet all along) a dangerous and ever thickening crime in the whitehouse. The male lead, Gray Bondurant, is awesome. I would like to read a book from his perspective. Cool, calculating and every man's envy, Gray keeps the book moving when it may very well have stopped in an immature pout. The characters of the president and first lady starkly contrast one another and acheive their desired effects. One is despicable and the other is pitiable, as much as she wants to be, that is.

I could do more Brown but I won't reach past an unread Lee Child to pick it up.
