Till You Hear from Me

After working tirelessly on Barack Obama's presidential campaign, thirty-five-year-old Ida B. Wells Dunbar was hoping for a White House job, but instead sees her twentysomething counterparts landing positions. Then, after her father, the Reverend Horace A. Dunbar, is unflatteringly featured on a YouTube clip gone viral, Ida heads home to Atlanta to see what's going on. Back in her old West End neighborhood, Ida runs into childhood friend and smooth political operator Wes Harper, also in town to pay a visit to the Reverend Dunbar, his mentor. Ida doesn't trust Wes or his mysterious connections for one second, but she can't deny her growing attraction to him. While Ida and the Rev try to find the balance between personal loyalties and political realities, they must do some serious soul searching in order to get things back on track before Wes permanently derails their best laid plans.
