Simone Duggars is a Senator in Denver, Colorado. She is an alpha female and does not take any prisoners in her interactions. She can be crass and ruthless, and brutal in her communications, but she owns whatever room she walks into. Then along came Mr. Douglas Winters, and she found out that initially, she is no match for him. He asks questions just to hear her answers, but he already knows the responses. He does not hesitate to let her know right away that he is smittened with her. He also made it very clear from very close to their meeting that he likes what he sees in her, and he intends to make her his. As time progresses, he realizes that there are folks who are out to get her, and to destroy. As far as he is concerned, none of that is happening on his watch.
