"Sadness came and left like the tide, an emptiness taking its place every time it receded." Aleeya Rai is lost. Not only literally, when she sneaks her way to the Boston subways to sing, but also when she's faced with how she could possibly get people to notice her talent. Becoming a singer and getting into her dream school are no easy feats, but she believes she has what it takes. In attempts to find herself and to achieve her goals, she strays from familiarity. She soon realizes that life is not as simple and straightforward as she wants it to be, throwing her to the unknown and jeopardizing way more than just her dreams. Something tells the tale of growth, and the lengths we're willing to go in order to thrive. "It is well-known that there is a tremendous stigma for South Asian immigrant populations toward mental health and well-being. [Banerjee] explores this important topic through normalizing the experience, understanding the challenges, and perhaps, offering a pathway for new dialogues and possibilities." -Dr. Darshan Mehta, Medical Director, Benson-Henry Institute for Mind Body Medicine, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical school

Kimberly Marie presents her debut novel. Set in Victorian England, it follows a young woman challenged by memories of her past. A story of; love, healing, female resiliency, and forgiveness.
Kimberly Marie considers herself a consumer of stories. She has always embraced the beauty of imagination and its ability to transport someone to a new world, so it was only natural that she put her own imagination on paper.
Featuring character-driven plots, her works focus on the journey of her characters, creating multi-layered stories that embrace growth and the human experience. An author who refuses to label herself with a genre, Kimberly chooses to focus on the protagonists and where life takes them, rather than fitting into a predetermined mold.
Throughout school, she always had a penchant for writing, but it was not until she lived and worked in Washington, D.C. after college that she discovered a love of reading.
Having run out of room on every bookshelf in her home, she has now picked up the pen to write stories of her own.
