Yes, Madam President: An American Tapestry Series

In a life-changing instant, young Victoria Mendoza's world is turned upside down as she awakens from a coma and learns of the death of her husband and unborn child. Suffering from this unbearable loss, she attempts suicide but is gradually nurtured back to health by her Navajo uncle. Victoria's passion as a special needs teacher leads to her political advocacy, election as mayor, then governor, and her eventual rise to the Presidency. Yet she remains sad and alone, haunted by her past and the newfound knowledge that her son in fact lives.

Adam Mendoza's career and romantic choices eventually lead to work in Washington, DC and an Oval Office encounter with his mother. In time, mother and son painstakingly mend their relationship, even as aggressive maneuvers from America's enemies prompt the new President to expand covert operations. Yet these actions fail to thwart coordinated cyber-attacks as terrorists deliver a tactical nuke onto U.S. soil. The nuclear blast that follows changes the course of history. As the country teeters on the brink of the next world war, Adam uncovers a plot which will forever affect America's destiny.
