Adam's Song

Who would walk out of a relationship with a United States Senator and, with eyes wide open, into the arms of a nationally known singing sensation? Jeffrey L. Withers, the pride of Connecticut, the darling of the Democratic party and one of the most sought after bachelors in Washington had swooped her up from an L.A. fundraiser eight months earlier and whisked her off to “his” town, set her up in an apartment a few short blocks from his and whirled her around the city like a fairy princess. Everything seemed terrific until she realized the loneliness she still endured. The novelty of being on the arm of a United States Senator seemed to be wearing off, the excitement, the thrill, and the newness, all gone.
