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 wasn't until high school--when she wandered into the romance section of a bookstore--that she realized happily-ever-afters are her jam.
Flash forward [an undisclosed number of] years and 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 she's not testing her characters' patience, Aurora is raising small humans, roasting her spouse, prowling for chocolate, and dancing for all that she's worth. She also spends her days adulting as a communications professional for a not for profit organization.

Aurora Palit recommends
When Javi Dumped Mari (2025)
Mia Sosa
"Full of chemistry, humor, yearning, heat, and raw emotion, Mia Sosa has written an addictive friends to lovers romance. The will-they-won't-they drama had me hanging by a thread! Every page was infused with delicious tension; there are scenes in this book that are going to live rent free in my head, and I'm not mad about it."
The Summers Between Us (2025)
Noreen Nanja
"Brimming with poignant and heartfelt commentary on diasporic families, immigrant values, and multi-generational conflict, Noreen Nanja's stunning debut, The Summers Between Us, is, at its core, everything a second chance romance should be: hopeful, full of tension and yearning, and so genuine that you can't help but remember the first time you fell in love. I couldn't put it down and can't wait for what Noreen gifts us with next!"
