In this sweet and sexy queer romance, Sam, a history professor, and fat-positive Lily, an amateur seamstress, meet at their favorite karaoke bar. Aven Shore and Yvonne Roberts perform from Sam's and Lily's perspectives. Their empathetic performances embrace the insecurities that follow their first exhilarating evening together. Sam's vulnerability about their nonbinary gender identity and professional self-worth informs Shore's characterization as they agonize alone and with supportive friends about their relationship with Lily. Lily worries that her nightlife persona will turn Sam off. Roberts's portrayal shows Lily growing in confidence as she bridges the distance between them. A warm and affirming novella about taking a chance on love. J.R.T. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
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 Café. 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.
