Book Review – The Governor’s Wife

by Mark Gimenez (Sphere) ISBN  9 781847 443816

Bode Bonner is the governor of Texas. He has everything he could want in life but he longs for some new excitement.

Lindsay Borner is Bode’s wife and she’s bored too. Bored with the endless cocktail parties, and Bode’s womanising. She decides to break free of her bland wealthy Texan lifestyle. And that moment comes when she saves a poor Hispanic boy’s life. She uses her skills as a trauma nurse and her life is changed forever in ways that she could never have predicted.

Predictably, Lindsay falls for Jesse the dedicated doctor who helps the poor. He is a highly skilled doctor. But when push comes to shove and Lindsay finds herself in an untenable situation, she knows that the governor will come to her aid.

Filled with dramatic and ingenious twists and turns, plus a lot of uninteresting padding, this is still a good read.
