description: Christine Sullivan isn't an easy person to love. She knows how the world sees her – aloof, standoffish, cold…perhaps even bitchy. After a lifetime in politics, including a stint with an expat government in exile, President Sullivan has taken her share of body blows, but now she's back in Philadelphia…a widow, a recovering Republican, a former public servant seeking a quiet, private existence. On her to-do list - rebuild her relationship with her estranged daughter and invent the rest of her life. She has her best friend Caroline, her brand spanking new condo, and her ever frustrating Secret Service detail to keep her company. That should be enough for anyone, right?Until Alexander Guardiola comes along… liberal, emotionally unguarded, younger. A lot younger. Everything Christine isn't. And isn't ready for.But opposites attract, don't they? And hearts and minds can always be changed…This is a standalone spinoff in the Bellator Saga series that takes place after the events of Bellator Saga #1-6.Content Warning: grief, psychological and physical trauma, death
