National Book Award finalist and Indie Next bestselling author Sonora Reyes (The Luis Ortega Survival Club) launching their new novel, The Broposal. ABOUT THE BOOK From the author of The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School, two best bros fake an engagement–but will their friendship survive? It’s about time roommates Alejandro and Kenny get married. Or at least, that’s what all their close friends and family think when they announce their engagement. The kicker? The two are faking their whole relationship so Alejandro can get a green card. But if Han was going to marry anyone, it would be his ride or die since second grade. Han has never been able to put down roots, and the only one who truly breaks through his walls is Kenny. Sweet, sensitive Kenny is newly single, and what better distraction from his soul-sucking relationship than proposing marriage to Han? Kenny can’t think of anything more fun than spending his life with his best friend, even if it’s just for a piece of paper. But as Kenny keeps up the charade, he’s soon struggling to resist their sizzling chemistry. The line between fact and fiction begins to blur the closer they get to their wedding date. With all eyes on Han and Kenny—including a meddling ex and immigration officers—will these two bros make it down the altar for real? ABOUT THE AUTHOR Born and raised in Arizona, Sonora Reyes is the author of The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School and The Luis Ortega Survival Club.
