When an ugly confrontation reveals his preference for men, Vel fears he has ruined the diplomatic union before it can even begin. But while his family is ready to disown him, the Tithenai envoy has a different solution: for Vel to marry his former intended's brother instead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaethari Aeduria always knew he might end up in a political marriage, but his sudden betrothal to a man from Ralia, where such relationships are forbidden, comes as a shock. With an unknown faction willing to kill to end their new alliance, Vel and Cae have no choice but to trust each other. Survival is one thing, but love - as both will learn - is quite another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eByzantine politics, lush sexual energy, and a queer love story that is by turns sweet and sultry, A Strange and Stubborn Endurance is an exploration of gender, identity, and self-worth. It is a book that will live in your heart long after you turn the last page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 211 x 137 x 32 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781250829290\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Foz Meadows","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44704998588666,"sku":"9781250829290","price":12.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1698427151851_book.jpg?v=1698653960","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-strange-and-stubborn-endurance-9781250829290","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
