    Summary

    “What?” April said, slipping off her shoes and dropping her keys in the entryway of Jen’s townhome. “It’s not like you like giving up control.” 

    “Says who?” Jen said - offended? April stopped and turned, and really looked at her. Oh, she was serious. This was interesting.

    Summary

    “They’re not bad,” Rio offered unhelpfully, never one to go too long without stating her opinion.

    Agatha glared at her. It was one thing for the conductor to insult, or rather, critique, her orchestra. It was another for her meddling, conniving, lunatic ex-wife to do so.

    “They’re one of the best orchestras in the world,” Agatha scoffed, stepping off the podium to face the cellist. “And I don’t recall asking for your opinion.”

    Or

    Living legend Agatha Harkness, music director and conductor of the Manhattan Symphony Orchestra, is an unstoppable force. But nothing tests her patience quite like the immovable object that is her ex-wife.

    Summary

    Life on the Upper East Side typically ensured residence in one of the city's most expensive forms of real estate and a hefty trust fund, all tied together with societal expectations that are almost impossible to meet. Not that Agatha Harkness minded- she's always been exceptional.

    But what happens when a ghost from her past makes a rather unexpected and unwanted return?

    Or the Gossip Girl AU no one asked for.
