VOTED ONE OF GLAMOUR'S BEST BOOKS TO READ IN 2018 The compulsively
readable, behind-the-scenes memoir that takes readers inside the
Obama White House, through the eyes of a young staffer learning the
ropes, falling in love and finding her place in the world. 'Bridget
Jones goes to the White House' - New York Times In 2012, Beck
Dorey-Stein was just scraping by in Washington DC when a posting on
Craigslist landed her, improbably, in the Oval Office as one of
Barack Obama's stenographers. She joined the elite team who
accompanied the president wherever he went, recorder and mic in
hand. On whirlwind trips across time zones, Beck forged friendships
with a tight group of fellow travellers - young men and women who,
like her, left their real lives behind to hop aboard Air Force One
in service of the president. But as she learned the ropes of
protocol, Beck became romantically entangled with a colleague, and
suddenly, the political became all too personal. Set against the
backdrop of a White House full of glamour, drama and intrigue, this
is the story of a young woman making unlikely friendships, getting
her heart broken, learning what truly matters and discovering her
voice in the process. 'Who knew the West Wing could be so sexy?
Beck's unparalleled access is obvious on every page, along with her
knife-sharp humour... Lots of books claim to give real insider
glimpses, but this one actually delivers.' Lauren Weisberger,
author of The Devil Wears Prada
