Still obsessed with RWRB by @casey.mcquiston! @annemetcalf53 says: "Pride! Prejudice! Steamy hotel sex! Political intrigue! In McQuiston's sassy and sexy debut, two extraordinary young men navigate attraction and affection despite their (outrageous) circumstances. Alex, Mexican-American first son of the United States, and Henry, the "spare" heir to the throne of England, have always been compared in the tabloids. Ambitious, effusive Alex hates it--and assumes that he also hates posh, polished Henry--but after an incident at a royal wedding, their PR teams insist on a campaign to convince the world they're BFFs. They turn out to be much more than friends, but with Henry's very traditional (and powerful) Grandmother sitting on the throne, and Alex's mom gearing up for a difficult reelection campaign, the young men must decide whether their feelings for one another are worth the consequences for their families and futures. Sweet, charming, surprisingly intricate, and heartfelt, this is a fantastic LGBTQ romance for anyone who liked the political fantasy of The West Wing, or was captivated by the recent royal weddings, but wished those things were a little (a lot) gayer." . . . #rwrb #romance #contemporaryromance #lgbtqromance #bookstore #staffpicks #indiebookstore #bookstagram
