An uplifting and hilarious m/m romcom, with a twist: this epic split-timeline novel is a big, joyous celebration of Pride and embracing who you are!

Present-day. American movie star Patrick and British bookseller Will''s worlds collide when Patrick comes to the UK to shoot a blockbuster superhero movie, in which he plays the starring role. Patrick''s life as a Hollywood celebrity may be glamorous, but it''s all an act: his contract obliges him into play up to his status as a public sex symbol, which means he can''t let anyone find out that he''s gay. Will, who does drag and is a comics nerd, understands there''s power in having an alter-ego, but he also knows the importance of being openly yourself and following your heart. Might he succeed in drawing Patrick out of his shell?

1948. Charles and Iris are not like other married couples. Partly because they are the writer-illustrator duo behind a comic destined to become the multi-billion-dollar superhero franchise that will eventually bring Patrick and Will together. Partly because they don''t love each other... well, only as very good friends. Charles and Iris are both queer, at a time when homosexuality is illegal in Britain. In spite of the adversity they face, Charles and Iris''s story is not a sad one: their unconventional partnership leads them on an empowering journey of self-discovery, with plenty of romance on both sides too...

As we follow both timelines, Charles and Iris''s extraordinary relationship serves as an origin story for Patrick and Will''s. Laced with Hollywood gossip and camp hijinks, We Could be Heroes is sweet, hilarious, a little bit spicy, and with a Pride message you''ll never forget!
