Across the aisle: A sapphic age gap political mystery

Across the Isle is a searing, seductive political romance/mystery that dares to cross party lines—and age boundaries. Olivia Vega, a brilliant 24-year-old campaign strategist, has one mission: take down the unshakable Senator Evelyn Roth in a pivotal congressional race. But when Olivia’s ambition meets Evelyn’s magnetic command of power, everything changes. Their rivalry ignites into a storm of attraction neither can control, threatening their loyalties, careers, and carefully curated public images. As secrets unravel—including Evelyn’s past hidden marriage to another woman—Olivia must decide whether to betray the senator she's falling for, or sacrifice her own political future to protect her. In a world where perception is everything, love becomes the most dangerous game of all. From secret rendezvous in Capitol Hill corridors to charged glances across televised debates, Across the Isle is a slow-burn, high-stakes sapphic romance filled with political intrigue, forbidden desire, and the haunting question: what would you risk for the person you weren’t supposed to love?
