Once you're married, you can never be unmarried: In rural Telangana, India, this isn't just a saying-it's the hard truth.
16-year-old Kaivalya lives and breathes medicine. She will be a doctor, or she'll die trying. To her exasperation, she is also bestowed with the kind of looks that attract the sort of attention she doesn't need.
Kaivalya's lawyer mother is a passionate women's rights activist. She also advocates against child marriages. Which means she's made her share of enemies over the years.
Four hundred kilometers away, Gangadhar has nursed a vengeance against the lady lawyer for far too long-and the time to make her pay is NOW.
Closer to home, Kaivalya's grandfather has accrued debts from gambling, and the loan sharks are circling. His efforts to extricate himself from his troubles have drawn the attention of the sand mafia-and his strikingly pretty granddaughter is now in their crosshairs.
The grandfather's acts of desperation will set all of their lives on a collision course. And when they do collide, their lives will be thrown offtrack in ways none of them could have foreseen.

The University of New Mexico, Albuquerque's publication Emerging South Asian Women Writers: Essays and Interviews (From Antiquity to Modernity Book 1) by Feroza Jussawalla and Deborah Fillerup Weagel has a writeup on Rasana.
After working in IT for several years, Rasana made a successful transition to writing fiction. Rasana was one of India's self-publishing pioneers. She did this after declining a trade-publishing contract. Amazon flew her to New Delhi for the launch of the Kindle.
Rasana lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and two children. Her son is in college, and daughter is grumpily finishing high school over Zoom.
