A World Beside Our Own
by Aimee Menard
Coming of Age Fantasy Romance featuring queer and transgender characters.
ABOUT THE BOOK
Simon is a runaway transgender youth seeking a means to flee from religious and unaccepting parents. Desperate to escape a fate they feel is worse than death, they bike further than ever. On that rainy night, they encountered the strangest girl they could ever meet. Luna appears to be as deadly as she is beautiful, but Simon’s in little position to argue her offer. Curiosity overcomes fear as she pulls Simon into a world they never knew existed, where magical creatures have lived alongside humanity for generations.
Enter Sala, an attractive and affectionate creature who has decided that the transitioning teen is hers to claim. Does she know something that our charming teen, now going by the name of Simiathlas, doesn’t? Is there more to discover than an alternative to becoming a girl when embracing the Elven blood in your veins?
This coming-of-age queer fantasy romance pulls at heartstrings. It will make you laugh. It will make you cry. Join our teens as they discover life, magic, and a world that is more complex than they could ever imagine.
