Around A Table: Colorful Romance

A groundbreaking romance novel that educates while it captivates

When Rain, a confident non-binary student, walks into Professor Li's poetry class, neither of them realizes their connection will spark a journey of self-discovery that ripples through an entire campus community. As Li questions the gender identity they've never had words for, Rain introduces them to a vibrant world of diverse identities, relationships, and ways of loving.

From archaeological digs under starlit skies to intimate conversations in campus coffee shops, Around A Table weaves together over 20 interconnected love stories that span the full spectrum of LGBTQ+ identities. Watch as Dr. Martinez discovers her lesbian identity at 52 while falling for her graduate student, Lora. Follow Casey, Alex, and Sage as they navigate ethical polyamory. Journey with Tair, an Indigenous Two-Spirit professor, and Quinn, whose stargender identity connects to the cosmos. Witness Blain and Zoe's tender asexual-spectrum romance.

Each romance serves as a window into authentic experiences: coming out later in life, transitioning, navigating disability and attraction, reconciling faith with identity, and building chosen families. Characters represent the beautiful diversity of human experience—across race, culture, age, ability, and identity—all united by their search for love, acceptance, and understanding.

This isn't just a romance novel. It's a comprehensive guide to gender and sexuality diversity, delivered through compelling storytelling and intimate relationships.

Perfect for readers seeking LGBTQ+ education through engaging narrative, allies wanting to understand diverse identities, educators looking for accessible resources, or anyone who believes love stories can change the world.

Because sometimes the best way to learn is through the heart.
