This is the book politicians didn’t want written. Tea Party Teddy is a novel about political corruption, bribes, sex and intrigue, which all come together in the story of a newly elected Assemblyman.
Teddy is elected because of his hateful anti-immigration platform. When he goes to Sacramento, he struggles with the temptations ultimate power affords.
His world slowly unravels as he succumbs to the power of his office. In an ironic twist of fate, his wife becomes romantically involved with the founder of the Republicans for Latinos.
As the wife of a former California State Senator, Dianne had 12 years of firsthand experience observing politicians, lobbyists, and consultants, as they struggled to gain political advantage. “This is the unseen side of politics!”
Targeted Age Group:
Adult
I write a book that the characters dictate and the genre seems to be contemporary romantic suspense. I have a lot of problems with the whole genre thing because I think there are so many cross-overs for many books. My first book, Blue Coyote Motel, has been called Hitchockian, psychological thriller, hints of Twilight Zone, romance, mystery, existential. Who knows?

Being seated next to the most bigoted, biased politician I had ever met at two consecutive political dinners. I began to weave a story in my mind. What was his wife like? What was his home live like? What made him the way he was?
