Politicians rarely get a second chance. The Next Election is the story of Blake Buchanan's. Once a shoo-in for the highest political office in the state, Blake Buchanan sacrificed his lifelong dream to protect his family. Now, a year removed from his withdrawal as a Texas gubernatorial candidate, Blake seeks to revive his once successful legal career while navigating a nasty divorce and shielding his beloved daughters from the fallout. Even as Blake presses on with his new life, he can't avoid the lure of politics, and he's seduced by a brilliant strategy devised by his never-say-die former campaign manager to resurrect his career. Deception and scandal follow as Blake attempts a political comeback. In the end, Blake must face the same fundamental questions he never resolved in his prior run for office- about love, life, and the ties that bind. His answers will shape his political destiny.
