Bøger af Tufayel Ahmed

Three siblings. Three promises. Three lifetimes of saying all the wrong things..."A family drama with a huge amount of heart... A powerful, hopeful read." --Bobby Palmer"A layered and powerful story about family and identity. Tufayel Ahmed is a talented and vital voice." --Lauren Ho"Entertaining, poignant, and eye-opening." --Justin Myers (The Guyliner)Since their mother's death, siblings Imran, Sumaya and Majid have drifted in three very different directions, trying to live up to the last promises they each made to her. But when a viral news piece throws an unwanted spotlight on the family, they're drawn back into each other's lives for the first time in years.With the media attention exposing the cracks in Imran's already fragile marriage, he begs Sumaya to return from New York to help--but living under the same roof again after all this time brings up all the secrets they'd both thought long-buried. And now nothing can stop the truth from coming out...With the promises they once made in tatters, is this a chance for the siblings to finally live the lives they've always wanted and rebuild the bond they once had? Or has too much already been said?

It's time everyone knew the truth, and what better way to announce you're getting married (and gay) than on your family WhatsApp group?Amar can't wait to tell everyone his wonderful news: he's found The One, and he's getting married. But it turns out announcing his engagement on a group chat might not have been the best way to let his strict Muslim Bangladeshi family know that his happy-ever-after partner is a man--and a white man at that.Amar expected a reaction from his four siblings, but his bombshell sends shockwaves throughout the community and begins to fracture their family unit, already fragile from the death of their mother. Suddenly Amar is questioning everything he once believed in: his faith, his culture, his family, his mother's love--and even his relationship with Joshua. Amar was sure he knew what love meant, but was he just plain wrong?He's never thought of his relationship with Joshua as a love story--they just fit together, like two halves of a whole. But if they can reconcile their differences with Amar's culture, could there be hope for his relationship with his family too? And could this whole disaster turn into a love story after all?
