Kamala Harris is the Vice President of the United States - admired by millions and poised to make history with a presidential run. 
But behind closed doors, her family is beginning to unravel. 

Her wife, Rochelle, is a rising fashion designer who's grown tired of playing the polished political spouse. Their teenage daughter, Nia, is done pretending to be okay with a life she never chose. And five-year-old Zuri - all joy, imagination, and innocence  - doesn't fully understand the world her family lives in, but she feels the cracks forming beneath it. 

As Kamala steps deeper into the spotlight, private tensions rise, forcing the family to confront what matters more: the image the world sees, or the truth they're struggling to hold together. 

Because while she's running for President... she might just lose her family.

President Kamala Harris has spent a lifetime playing by the rules. Every decision is calculated, every word carefully measured. In the Oval Office, there's no room for mistakes-and certainly no room for reckless attraction. But all it takes is one night, one glance, and one dangerously captivating woman to threaten everything she's worked for. Enter Jasmine Ti'ell Monroe-Hollywood's brightest star and a three-time Oscar winner with a sharp tongue and zero tolerance for nonsense. Jasmine isn't just beautiful-she's fierce. Outspoken. Fearless. Whether she's calling out industry hypocrisy or defending those who can't defend themselves, Jasmine has never been the type to sit down or shut up. And she's certainly not about to start now. When Kamala and Jasmine cross paths at a glittering charity gala, sparks fly-immediate, undeniable, and impossible to ignore. Kamala has admired Jasmine's work for years, secretly captivated by the woman who refuses to play by anyone's rules but her own. But nothing on-screen could prepare her for the force of nature standing before her-one who isn't afraid to challenge her, tease her, or make her question everything. For Jasmine, Kamala Harris is more than just a political icon. She's the woman who shattered ceilings and redefined power-a woman Jasmine has always found intriguing. But beneath the presidential polish, she senses something deeper. A loneliness. A longing. And for the first time in years, Jasmine wants to know what's hiding behind the mask of the most powerful woman in the world. What begins as a playful flirtation soon spirals into something neither of them can control. Secret meetings. Stolen touches. Late-night phone calls that turn into something more. But in a world where appearances mean everything, their connection isn't just risky-it's explosive. Jasmine isn't the type to be quiet, and Kamala isn't the type to bend. But as the stakes grow higher and the pressure builds, they'll have to decide.

The Running Hearts Series- Book One Senator Kamala Harris, an ambitious, powerful Black woman in her late 30s, is the youngest U.S. Senator from California and now a leading contender in the race for the presidency. With her polished image, elite education, and clean public record, she's a symbol of hope-especially for Black women across America. But Kamala has long buried a personal truth: she is attracted to women. Her political consultants have always advised her to keep that part of herself hidden, fearing the backlash could derail her career. During a campaign stop in Houston, Texas, Kamala visits a local school as part of her education initiative. There, she meets Kiana Matthews, a vibrant, passionate 28-year-old teacher and girls' basketball coach. Kiana is everything Kamala isn't-unapologetically authentic, a bit rough around the edges, and grounded in community. Kiana has an 8-year-old daughter, Zuri, who is wise beyond her years and immediately forms a bond with the senator. What starts as professional admiration quickly turns into something deeper. Kamala finds herself drawn to Kiana's warmth and strength, while Kiana is intrigued by the powerful, poised woman who seems to be quietly unraveling behind the scenes. But Kiana harbors secrets-ones that could destroy them both if they come to light: a hidden past involving Zuri's father, a scandal that once cost her a scholarship and nearly her teaching license, and a dangerous ex who hasn't truly let her go. As the campaign heats up, rumors begin to swirl. A political rival leaks intimate photos suggesting Kamala may be having an affair with a woman. Kiana is forced into hiding, and Kamala is faced with the biggest decision of her life: protect her image, or embrace who she truly is-even if it means sacrificing her dreams. Meanwhile, Zuri, caught between her mother's secrets and the senator's sudden presence in their lives, becomes an emotional anchor, revealing truths neither woman is ready to face.
