Power Moves by Leesa Ronald

Camilla ‘Millsy’ Hatton is a perfectly content workaholic. She’s the woman in charge of media for the state’s education minister, and every day is a frantic mix of deadlines and damage control. But it’s all worth it when there’s an election to win.

The only thing standing in her way is Archie Cohen. Back when they were at university together, he was a stone-faced jock. Now, he’s the nation’s favourite political journalist-aka her work nemesis-and it seems he’ll stop at nothing to take down Millsy’s boss with his damning headlines.

In their tangled web of media and politics, Millsy and Archie are used to high stakes and high drama. But when their game of cat-and-mouse starts heating up, there’s suddenly more to lose than ever before. Millsy starts to wonder: has she been doctoring the truth for so long she’s forgotten what it looks like?

About the Author: Leesa Ronald is the author of Special Delivery, a rom-com debut published by Allen & Unwin.

She grew up on a farm in Central West NSW and used schoolwork as an excuse to avoid sheepwork. Luckily, her parents indulged her ‘commitment’ to her studies, which sparked her lifelong love of words and an enduring fear of hard labour.
After studying Media & Communications at the University of Sydney, Leesa worked in magazines before pivoting to corporate communications.

She now works and lives in Orange, NSW, with her family.
