The Alphabet Lovers

In the beginning, there was Adam.

Marcos Ferreira’s first love. The first man who made him feel chosen—and the first man to break his heart. What they had was passionate, consuming, impossible to let go of. And too big to keep hidden forever.

Then there was Reese—charismatic, obsessive, and impossible to resist. The kind of relationship that burns hot enough to feel exhilarating right up until it turns destructive.

After that, Marcos builds a life around movement. New city. New beginning. No strings. For a while, it works. Until the exits stop feeling clean, the relationships deepen, and the loneliness catches up.

Then comes Liam, the musician who makes permanence feel less like a trap and more like a future. For the first time in years, Marcos allows himself to believe he may be capable of building something that lasts.

But when an unexpected reunion forces Marcos to confront the relationship that shaped him from the very beginning, he’s left wondering whether he’s ever really moved on at all.

The Alphabet Lovers is a sweeping queer coming-of-age story about intimacy, grief, self-sabotage, desire, and trying to outrun love but always being two steps behind. It will resonate with readers who enjoyed the fragmented intimacy of The Lover’s Dictionary, the candid exploration of connection in Cleanness, and the travel-driven self-discovery of Less.
