The Broposal

De: Sonora Reyes

Narrado por: André Santana, Alejandro Antonio Ruiz

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?

Beautiful story!

I love books that make me mad or sad or any kind of emotion. This story was all of the above and more. Honestly my favorite story of the year, will definitely be listening again in the future.

Applause all around

I laughed. I cried. And most of all I smiled. This is such a great book and it deals with certain triggers in such a great way. The narrators both did an amazing job truly bringing the story to life.

More emotional than I expected

I knew going into this that the "fake marriage" would become real, because of course the boys would fall in love. Hello trope 101. what I didn't expect was the depth of the characters: their struggles, emotional well-being, the way they interacted with the side characters that surrounded them. It made Han and Kenny's story feel like more than just a common romance plot.

The inclusion

Loved everything about this story! And especially the focus on immigration issues and racial profiling.

One of the best romances I've Read in awhile

Everything about this book is great. The narration feels spot on. The characters and the feelings they invoke. I actually found myself crying a couple of times. I love the interaction and emotions the two MCs display. I particularly enjoyed portrayals of their families and the little bits of culture and food thrown in here and there - it really felt authentic and I could totally empathize. I would recommend this book.
