A first generation Bengali-Canadian, Aurora Palit grew up in rural Alberta, where she was always the only South Asian student in her class. Her love of reading began at age four but it wasnтАЩt until high schoolтАФwhen she wandered into the romance section of a bookstoreтАФthat she realized happily-ever-afters are her jam. Aurora is now writing those stories with her own unique brand of humor, perspective, and belief that people of color deserve love stories too. During her time pursuing a master's degree in English literature, Aurora was drawn to discourses on diaspora and identity, racism, and multi-generational immigrant experiences; topics she now explores in her writing. When sheтАЩs not testing her charactersтАЩ patience, Aurora is raising small humans, roasting her spouse, prowling for chocolate, and dancing for all that sheтАЩs worth. She also spends her days adulting as a communications professional for a not for profit organization.
