But when he starts crushing on the ridiculously handsome captain of the soccer team, so many things he'd always been so sure about are becoming questions: </p><p>1. Music is haram. But what if the <i>Wicked </i>soundtrack is the only thing keeping you sane because you're being forced to play on the soccer team? With <i>Captain Handsome</i>?! </p><p>2. A boy crush is <i>double </i>haram, and Ramin's parents will never accept it. But can he really be the only Muslim on Earth who feels this way? </p><p>3. Allah is merciful and makes no mistakes<i>. </i>Then isn't Ramin just the way Allah intended him to be? </p><p>And so why should living your truth but losing everything<b>--</b>or living a lie and losing yourself<b>--</b>have to be a <i>choice</i>?!</p>
