Vera Thompson

Vera Thompson, a character in the Perfect Match series, is the President of the United States. She is first seen in Book 2, Chapter 9.

Appearance
President Thompson has short black hair, brown eyes, and dark skin. She wears a fuschia colored blouse under a dark pin-striped blazer, pearl earrings, and a pearl necklace.

Harley Doyle
As the leader of the United States, President Thompson is expected by the public to uphold traditional nuclear family values. Eros offered her to find her perfect match without all the hassle of dating and screening potential partners. Through them, she was matched with Harley. Their first date was at a symphony. She tried to enter without being noticed at the same time Harley was stepping down the stairs. They locked eyes and Harley smiled and she was immediately drawn in. She liked Harley's stubbornness and that he/she always expressed fearlessly what he/she thought. They laughed about the most absurd things together as Harley could always find fun in a situation. Because she is the driving force behind the AI Disclosure Act, Harley was matched to her to try to dissuade her. If that failed, Harley would attempt to assassinate her.

Your Character
President Thompson first appears on television while your team is in Indonesia. What causes alarm is Harley pictured with her, and continuing in Chapter 10, her kissing Harley's cheek and them being referred to as the Power Couple by the press. You and your group of friends decide to expose Eros on national television, but your plan backfires and Rowan West makes you out to be a conspiracy theorist. When you and your friends figure out that Harley is going to assassinate her, you all make your way to the gala in Washington, D.C. However, in Chapter 14, when you try to warn her about Harley, although she appreciates your concern, she dismisses your rant.

The Armadillos
In Chapter 14, you and your team (default name: Armadillos) stop Harley from completing Operation: Countervail in front of her and the secret service. In Chapter 15, she invites your team to dinner at the White House, thanking you for your actions. That is where she mentions that her gut told her to believe you, but the truth sounded absurd. She says her emotions have clouded her judgment and that she is sorry for the trouble that it caused to you. Because Hayden looks exactly like Harley, she cannot look at them for more than a moment as she really cared for Harley and still needs time to process the heartbreak.
