Decades ago, ambitious Zack Hayes set his sights on the White House. He's worked his whole life to become the leader of the free world-attending the right schools, marrying the perfect bride-all to aid his campaign. He didn't realize someone behind the scenes has been pulling the strings to manipulate Zack and the country he loves into a dangerous position-one he will risk his life to wrench free from. The one thing he can't risk is Elizabeth Matthews. From the moment she met Zack Hayes, Liz felt the connection.

Still, she'd thought they were friends, so when he pushed her aside, she felt the stab in her heart. And when she realizes he's done it to protect her, nothing will stop Liz from standing by his side-not even the men who would use her as a weapon against him. As shocking secrets are revealed, Zack and Liz find succor and passion in each other's arms. When the ultimate villain shows his face, Zack may have to choose between his country and the woman he loves . . . Contains mature themes.… (plus d'informations)

At the Pleasure of the President
4 Stars

The conspiracy plot comes to a head as President Zack Hayes must confront the ghosts of his past and determine whether he can trust the only woman he has ever loved.

This final installment in the series provides a satisfying ending to the engrossing mystery plot that has been developing from the first book, and the last few chapters are intense and exciting with some final surprising twists and turns.

Nevertheless, similar to the romances of the other Perfect Gentlemen, Zack and Liz's relationship is undermined by his questionable treatment of her. Despite their excellent chemistry, Zack's behavior leaves much to be desired and Liz is far too forgiving.

The secondary romance between Mad and Sara is very sweet and he more than makes up for his cruel actions. Of all the heroes in the series, he works the hardest to get back into her good graces and he definitely gives the best grovel :)

Overall, this is series is well worth the read for the brilliant plot, and even though the heroes are a pack of alpha jerks at times, the HEAs are very entertaining.

The conspiracy that has surrounded President Zack Hayes and his friends is finally coming to a head. His suspicions about his birth and his dead wife are becoming more clear as he decides to make changes in the nature of his relationship with his press secretary, Elizabeth Matthews. As he and his friends get closer to the truth, Zack begins to suspect everyone around him except The Perfect Gentlemen who have always been there for him whenever he had needed help. They work together to find out who is trying to control Zack, while he tries to incorporate love into his life for the first time.

At the Pleasure of the President is the final installment of The Perfect Gentlemen series and answers all of the questions raised in the four previous books. Even though this is supposed to be Zack and Liz's story, their relationship really takes a back seat to the resolution of the mystery. It just seems that this story couldn't decide whether to be a romance or a mystery and wasn't really successful at either one. Overall, At the Pleasure of the President provides a satisfying ending to the series-long mystery, but doesn't really bring very much more than that to the table. ( )
