Rabi and Matthew

De: L.A. Witt

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo

A queer retelling of Romeo and Juliet, except no one has to bury their gays.

A decades-old family rivalry is reaching a boiling point as the patriarchs vie for a seat in congress. Democrat vs Republican, Muslim vs Christian, Hashmi vs Swain - the Midwestern town of Arbor Hills is one spark away from an explosion of violence. So when two men find themselves irresistibly drawn together at a party, only to discover they were born on opposite sides of a bloody battle line, Matthew Swain and Rabi Hashmi know they should leave well enough alone.

The pull between them is magnetic, though, and it's too strong to ignore. Unable to resist, they meet again in secret. Generations of hatred can't temper the passionate love growing between them, but two men falling for each other in the middle of a war zone can't hold back the inevitable clash.

And when decades of political, religious, and personal strife finally come to a head, there will be blood.

Love is Tough

This story is very intense. There is so much action and hard moments to get through. Even though I was sure it would all be okay there are some really tense moments in the story. Sometimes the person who comes through isn't the one you were expecting which continue to keep you on your toes.
I listened to the audio version and I think it made it seem even more dramatic.

love can truly conquer all.

This book brought about so much emotions; this was well written and narrated. loved it.

Wow

This book is probably a very politically and environmentally correct boom. But it’s also a very heavy story. Sure it’s a romance, but a heavy emotional story.
Very well narrated.

What the world needs!

This retelling of a modern gay Romeo & Juliet was everything I didn’t know I needed. Rabi and Matthews story was perfect, I rushed, pure, and genuine. This story speaks the truth of taught hatred and how when people can see beyond what they are taught, that love is the natural way to exist.

This story is still a tragedy, it is heart breaking, but it is one of the most uplifting LGBTQ+ stories I have ever read. Please give this book a try you will not be disappointed

beautiful fiction

I thank you. for the attempt. But life is not following art. I also thank you for proving that a well written work can include explicit sex.
