Love Between the Cushions

Vice President JD Vance is falling apart, haunted by the loss of his beloved dorm room couch, Bessie, trapped in a crumbling marriage, and stumbling through an administration powered by ego, conspiracy, and spectacle. Life becomes even more complicated when Elon Musk, the President's biggest supporter, gifts him a new assistant: Victoria Chesterfield, a sentient AI Victorian sofa designed for administrative support, emotional therapy…and far more than any piece of furniture should be allowed.As tensions with Canada spiral toward disaster, JD is swept into a diplomatic mission alongside his furious wife, a cast of deranged celebrity hangers-on, and Victoria herself. What follows is a delirious chain of scandals, assassination attempts, rogue technology, weaponized geese, hillbilly commandos on mechanized ottomans, and one increasingly inconvenient love affair.Dark, surreal, and viciously funny, Love Between the Cushions is a post-apocalyptic political satire and bizarre romance about power, delusion, and the kind of romance that should never work—but somehow does.
