Sing Anyway

A Moonlighters Novella

De: Anita Kelly

Narrado por: Aven Shore, Yvonne Roberts

After a lifetime of failed relationships, non-binary history professor Sam Bell is committed to a new (non)romantic strategy: Thirst Only. It's the actual drinking where things get too complicated, where Sam inevitably gets hurt.

Sam is good at being thirsty, though, especially when it's karaoke night at The Moonlight Cafe. Moonie's is fun. Comfortable. Safe. Except for tonight, when one by one, all of Sam's friends abandon them. Disappointed, they prepare to leave—until their #1 karaoke crush catches their eye . . .

For Lily Fischer, karaoke at Moonie's is the only time she can step outside of her quiet shell. At Moonie's, Lily can pretend to be someone else: someone bold, who takes what she wants. And tonight, what Lily wants is the way Sam looks at her across the room as she sings her signature opening song.

As the night progresses, both Sam's and Lily's personal fears are tested, and the real world outside of Moonie's looms. But maybe sometimes, the real world should be a little more like karaoke. It's not always about knowing all the right words or having the perfect voice. Maybe all Sam and Lily need is a little courage to pick up the mic, and sing anyway.

Contains mature themes.

Not for me

This story wasn't bad, but it's not exactly what I thought it would be.

Sam is non-binary but has a penis. I'm not sure what Lily is, as it was never specified if she was straight, Bi or Pan.

When reading the book details all we knew was Sam was non-binary, but Sam could be someone gender identified at birth as a male or female. My hope was that Sam did not have a penis.

Needless to say the mature content was like listening to heterosexual sex and therefore I didn't find it even a little spicy.
