The Residency

De: Lise Gold, Madeleine Taylor

Narrado por: Charlotte Claremont

For the first time in years, Zara Nova is staying put.

Ten months in Vegas for her residency means no tours, no running from city to city. It also means time—time to finally stop running from herself.

Zara's built a career singing about love while ignoring her attraction to women since college. When a friend offers to set her up with someone discreet, she says yes. For once, she has the chance to explore this part of herself without the world watching.

Diane Washington, the daughter of a conservative senator and director of her family's political foundation, is deeply closeted and has spent years fundraising for people who would reject her if they knew the truth. When she walks into her blind date, she freezes. Sitting at the table, waiting for her, is one of the world's biggest pop stars.

The attraction is immediate. Their circumstances impossible.

Between the stage and the boardroom, they've both mastered the art of performance. Until one song changes everything, and the only choice left is which life to lose.

The Residency is a companion novel to Hedonism that can also be enjoyed as a standalone.
