Summary
Carol Sturka is the forty-seventh President of the United States, and the most convincing thing about her presidency might be her marriage to Julian Vane, which is warm and genuine and entirely platonic. Helen Umstead, who serves as her Press Secretary, is the woman who sees through all of it, and who Carol cannot stop noticing in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with press strategy. After a Republican senator starts questioning the true nature of the marriage and an emergency in the Arctic forces the administration into intense scrutiny, Carol or Helen learn that the White House contains no space more hazardous than any room that leaves the two of them alone.

Summary
Approximately three hours after their reunion, Louis finds himself resting snugly in the coffin he had delivered to the hotel prior to his own arrival, draped in approximately 145 pounds (he can’t quite remember) of tantalizing, companion-worthy material, wondering if he really is companion enough for himself.
A week later, he asks Lestat for his hand in marriage.

Summary
“That’s the thing, Louis.” Lestat offers him a small smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes. “I finally understand why you couldn’t love me back. It wasn’t easy to accept, but it’s time for me to be selfless and do the right thing.”
Louis can't stand the silence that follows. “What's the right thing to do, Lestat?”
“It’s time for me to let you go.”
Or: Lestat decides that it's time to part ways. Louis has a problem with that.
