Bella and Rami, by Isobel de Border
One fair-skinned girl. One dark-skinned boy. One passion that lasts a lifetime.
Bella is an Australian schoolgirl living in 1980s India. Rami is an athlete just out of college, about to start life abroad. From the start, their connection is powerful and physical. As they navigate distance, family, trauma, and complicated lives, first love becomes something deeper, more complex, something impossible to forget.
When Rami disappears abruptly from Bella’s life, she is filled with foreboding. Has something happened? Is he okay? To find answers, she must return to the past and confront the shadows that shaped her. She must also find Rami and ask him to tell his story.
Lyrical, intimate, and emotionally fearless, Bella & Rami is a sweeping romance about the intensity of youth, the adversities of life, and a rare love that endures long after the first embrace.
