- In
- politics,
- love
- is
- a
- stranger…It’s
- a
- bitterly
- cold
- winter
- in
- London
- and
- Jules
- Elwin
- has
- no
- idea
- what
- he’s
- doing.
- As
- the
- newest
- special
- adviser
- to
- a
- government
- minister,
- he’s
- drowning
- in
- arcane
- procedures
- and
- party
- politics,
- and
- the
- civil
- servant
- who’s
- supposed
- to
- be
- helping
- him
- is
- doing
- nothing
- of
- the
- sort.
- Ari
- is
- sarcastic,
- intolerant
- and
- has
- no
- time
- for
- a
- special
- adviser
- who’s
- only
- there
- because
- his
- father
- is
- a
- peer
- of
- the
- realm.Jules
- is
- only
- one
- of
- Ari’s
- many
- problems.
- As
- well
- as
- nursemaiding
- a
- special
- adviser,
- he’s
- got
- to
- get
- a
- Bill
- through
- Parliament,
- keep
- his
- irrepressible
- minister
- happy
- and
- stop
- his
- esteemed
- colleagues
- from
- hiding
- alcohol
- in
- their
- filing
- cabinets.
- And
- there’s
- something
- else,
- too:
- a
- deep,
- unspoken
- grief,
- that’s
- consuming
- him
- like
- frost.But
- despite
- everything,
- Ari
- sees
- the
- world
- around
- him
- clearly––and
- Jules
- has
- been
- waiting
- all
- of
- his
- life
- to
- be seen.
