Rainbow

by Verde Arzu

Overview

Taylor has room for exactly two things in her life: improving her performance as a college basketball player and maintaining the grades she needs to stay on the team and someday play in the WNBA. But when she meets the beautiful and confident Melony, Taylor's whole way of life is called into question.

RAINBOW is a coming-of-age queer love story with a Love Jones kind of vibe. It's the first of many queer Black novellas by the author Verde Arzu.

Editorial Reviews

Rainbow is everything I hoped and more. What an inspiring novella. I've been really wanting to find a representative story, and Rainbow was offered through my email. I absolutely adore this story and I'm giving it 5 stars even though it deserves more!

INDIE REVIEW - Julia Tilford

Arzu offers a coming-of-age story about the power of love to ignite collective change.

An engaging work about the freedom that comes with self-acceptance.
