 A sweet and hopeful queer romance, full of second chances and family. Sorry, Bro follows Nar, an Armenian-American whose non-Armenian boyfriend just proposed to in a crowded bar full of drunk men. Realizing she needs to rethink her life, Nar agrees to meet a list of approved (Armenian)  men her mother has put together. But, at the very first event she goes to, she meets Erebuni, a beautiful and politically strong woman who makes Nar swoon. It’s only then that she truly begins to embrace her Armenian identity and herself. There’s only one problem, Nar never told her family she’s bisexual and she’s not exactly sure her mom will take it well. As she navigates her secretive relationship and family expectations she begins to learn what it means to fight for what you want. 

Sorry, Bro is an ode to Armenian culture and an emotional journey of love and acceptance that is sure to make readers fly through the pages.
