    Summary

    After more than twenty years in publishing, Aziraphale Fell finds himself redundant and desperate enough to try advertising. As a senior copywriter he's paired with Crowley, a cynical art director who's spent years in the agency coasting on talent and contempt.

    They shouldn't work together well – Aziraphale with his passion, his fountain pens and faith in craft, Crowley with his irreverence, his sunglasses and studied indifference.

    But somehow they do.

    Summary

    Crowley lost his sight at twenty-nine. He lost his boyfriend, his career, his will to live. Eighteen months later, he's barely surviving – counting hours until he can drink himself to sleep.

    His neighbour Muriel thinks they're friends. They're wrong. But somehow, they've convinced him to attend a party thrown by the new downstairs neighbour, Aziraphale.
    Reluctantly, he goes. And then he hears a voice that makes him want to be alive again.

    Which is terrifying. Wanting something means risking everything. And Crowley has already lost too much.

    Summary

    Aziraphale looked up, stunned, into Crawly’s wide yellow eyes, the red waterfall of his hair, the sheen of sweat on his skin, and saw every impossible thing he was feeling reflected back at him. And there were many things to think in that moment, many strange and wonderful and fearful things, but what Aziraphale would remember later was the kinship of it, the no-longer-alone-ness of it, and how it made his eyes burn and his chest squeeze and his heart sing.

     

     

    The life cycle of a love affair; the life cycle of a star. For beings older than the Universe itself, they might not be so different.
