The Residency by Julia Spellman

After a devastating personal and professional collapse, novelist Gabriella Santos accepts a six-month creative residency in a remote mountain cabin shared with four male artists.

What begins as awkward cohabitation and creative friction slowly transforms amid the isolation of falling snow and late-night conversations.

As shared vulnerabilities strip away their defenses, Gabriella becomes the emotional and sensual center of the household.

The men, each guarded by their own artistic struggles and past losses, compete for her attention while learning to surrender to a deeper connection.

Through careful exploration of desire, trust, and mutual surrender, the group forges an unconventional bond that redefines their lives.

This story of organic emotional bonding and intimate discovery unfolds across eight chapters, emphasizing the power of chosen family in the face of solitude and creative rebirth.
