Produktbeschreibung
When a thirteen-second clip yanks speechwriter Elena Torres into the worst kind of fame-viral without context-City Hall wants optics, not truth. Enter Gabe Park, a rule-loving archivist whose natural habitat is quiet rooms and sharpened pencils. Their solution? A fake relationship that buys Elena time to work in the stacks-and puts the archive's rules on center stage. What begins as damage control becomes a document-driven mystery: a misfiled hydrology addendum, a routing-book dash, a whiteboard snapshot that says DUMP HYDROLOGY ADDENDUM, and a cassette where strategists swap risk for concern. With an FOI specialist, a retired clerk who "does minutes, not gossip," and a podcaster learning to love silence, Elena and Gabe build a public evidence site with redactions and receipts-choosing process over spectacle, pencils over podiums. As the river rises and a fixer threatens injunctions, their not-quite-pretend partnership turns careful and real. To save her integrity, Elena may have to resign. To keep public trust, Gabe must pick rules over comfort-then write new ones. Better Scandal is a smart, slow-burn contemporary romance where competence is sexy, transparency is heroic, and love files correctly. Perfect for readers who like fake dating with grown-up stakes, government-adjacent banter, and happy endings built on receipts.
