Karla is less thrilled when new beau Jack suggests they form a singing duo on land, but by now false enthusiasm has become second nature. They embark on a not-as-glamorous-as-it-should-be career performing in the luxury hotel bars of the Middle East and China. After a thousand and one nights on the road, Karla and Jack find themselves struggling to keep their act—both personal and professional—together. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Both an off-kilter take on the conventional coming-of-age tale and a sly commentary on the underbelly of celebrity culture, this truly original book is basically uncategorizable—blissfully so.”  - Elle.com","brand":"Untreed Reads","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47182893449456,"sku":"2940149721115","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149721115_p0.jpg?v=1763722502","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149721115","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
