Shielding her sister, Issy, from anything that could hurt her, especially her anxiety. Representing her family well, since her mom may be the next president.   And nothing can get in Emmy's way. Not Crohn’s disease, even if her gut has been acting up. Not the paparazzi, who snap any photos they can get of the daughters of a presidential candidate. And definitely not her feelings for Gabe Castillo, the only debater in DC who stands a chance at beating her—and who she used to be on secret kissing terms with, before he ghosted her. When Gabe unexpectedly returns to the debate scene and Issy starts crushing on him, Emmy works harder than ever to keep her eyes on winning and off her aching heart and body, because the alternative means losing the three things that matter most.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999218209041,"sku":"NIN9780063266759","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51328222658833,"sku":"CIN006326675XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52110686585105,"sku":"NGR9780063266759","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/006326675X.jpg?v=1751194872"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-allison-l-bitz.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
