More about the book
In this Latinx adult romance debut from National Book Award Finalist Sonora Reyes, two friends enter a marriage of convenience to prevent one from deportation, but their relationship takes an unexpected turn as they fall in love. Alejandro, known as Han, has always kept his heart guarded, leading others to believe he is commitment-phobic. However, he begins to realize that his emotional distance stems from a fear of confronting his own identity and the anxiety of being undocumented in a hostile environment. Meanwhile, his best friend Kenny is trapped in a draining relationship with a girlfriend who wants him to abandon Han. Afraid of being alone and punished for his choices, Kenny has let her dictate his life. When she forces him to choose between her and his best friend, he recognizes where his loyalty truly lies. Yet, their situation complicates when Han loses his job that was supposed to sponsor his work visa, leaving them both anxious. To provide security for Han and perhaps make his ex jealous, Kenny proposes a marriage of convenience. However, neither is prepared for the genuine feelings that arise as they pretend to be madly in love.
