Seven Desperate Hearts — I got tired of seeing the world see my culture as inferior, so I wrote a badass main character whose mother's realm is heavily inspired by India and reminded myself of how beautiful my heritage is, no matter what others think. #Q #YA #F #RF #Questpit #SevenDesperateHearts

Seven Desperate Hearts — I wrote a ya romantic fantasy with a ballroom scene. The plot twist? She's not dancing with the love interest, and she uncovers a secret from her partner that changes her life forever. #Q #YA #RF #F #Questpit #SevenDesperateHearts
