    Summary

    BEEEEEEEEEEP.

    The honk comes without warning. For half a second, Carol thinks she has been shot.

    Then it keeps going. A sustained, unbroken, eat-shit honk. The kind LA people deploy when they want to fuck you up as a person.

    The honking stops. The Range Rover's window comes down.

    "Are you leaving the space or not." The woman says it flat, and bored.

    Carol puts her own window down. Slowly, for the fuck of it.

    “No, lady. I'm not leaving. I’m parked. This is a parking space, and I have parked a car in it. Like a human being is allowed to. Your response to that was to put your hand flat on a horn for what, an hour? What the fuck is wrong with you?”

    or

    A feud for the ages. Two strangers let a parking incident burrow into their minds and slowly consume their every thought and action

    Summary

    After the death of her wife, nihilistic and closeted romance author Carol Sturka descends into a stupor of drunken depression which is only compounded when her fanbase finds out she’s a lesbian and erupts in outrage and deems her disingenuous. Her publicist has the perfect solution to rebuild Carol's public image and free her from the "romance slop" genre forever, but Carol isn't going to like it.

    She's right. Carol hates it. (Until she doesn't.)

    Summary

    Carol looks up at her and frowns, obviously not expecting her. But the fight doesn’t leave her. “He got my drink wrong three times.”

    “Did he get your drink wrong, or are you downing them and then asking for a free remake?”

    “I—” Carol stops. Lets out a breath. “Look, lady. It’s not my fault if he has to remake it. I shouldn’t have to pay for a drink that’s wrong.”

    “Correct,” Zosia says. “If the drink is wrong, it will be replaced. You, however, are drinking the drink, despite it being wrong, and therefore are going to pay for the additional drinks you’ve been brought.”

    Summary

    Carol Sturka is the forty-seventh President of the United States, and the most convincing thing about her presidency might be her marriage to Julian Vane, which is warm and genuine and entirely platonic. Helen Umstead, who serves as her Press Secretary, is the woman who sees through all of it, and who Carol cannot stop noticing in ways that have absolutely nothing to do with press strategy. After a Republican senator starts questioning the true nature of the marriage and an emergency in the Arctic forces the administration into intense scrutiny, Carol or Helen learn that the White House contains no space more hazardous than any room that leaves the two of them alone.
