It's been a long year for Glendale Peterson, and it's only May. Dumped and kicked out by his toxic fiancé and in a fragile state of mind, he throws everything he owns into a trailer and drives. Over 2,500 miles, in fact, from the Colorado high desert to the sunny farmland where he grew up, south of glamorous downtown Miami. His part of town sees more mangoes than movie stars, more celery than celebrities, but he's desperate for some quiet to recuperate. Unfortunately for Glendale, just a few weeks after his sudden return home the whole world falls apart.
A zombie apocalypse just seems par for the course for the year, really. Fresh off a slew of bad experiences and not quite ready to trust, a near-death experience puts him in the path of Marcelo Gonsalvez, a man so incandescent he's almost beyond belief. Holed up from the hordes with only the bubbly stranger who rescued him for medical attention, things could go sideways fast.
Fortunately for Glendale, sometimes life stops throwing curve-balls and lets you catch your breath. While he's at it, he's also going to catch feelings.
Capture the Rain is a gay contemporary apocalypse romance featuring two neurodivergent protagonists (Autistic, AuDHD), a fat MMC, a Dominican Afro-Latine MMC, low gore, medium spice, and maximum feelings. A single POV slow burn teeming with emotional intimacy, self-acceptance, caretaking, and touch-starved/touch-generous moments, Capture the Rain will delight readers who need a bit of queer love hopecore to make it through this timeline. A reminder that even in an inhuman, inhumane world, empathy is an asset: as long as we look out for each other, we will be okay.
