This Love

Mae and Ari meet at university, quickly becoming inseparable. Mae has known she was gay since a young age, is shy but waifishly attractive and never short of a date. Ari brings Mae out of her shell, he's flamboyant and his bright light draws in everyone he meets. Although Ari he is battling demons of his own, they quickly become a power couple (though never date) and their relationship with each other becomes the most significant of both lives. In three time periods, This Love shows us what an extraordinary friendship can be and also examines contemporary queer life and expands our understanding of what it means to be a family. A gorgeous, sweeping novel about queerness, overcoming loss and choosing your own family, This Love is perfect for fans of One Day, Rainbow Milk and Detransition, Baby.
