"With beautifully crafted poetic prose, author Rajdeep Paulus weaves fear and tragedy, hope and romance through a story that dictates you endure emotional anguish right along with her characters. A work of art."
~USA TODAY reviewer Serena Chase, author of Eyes of E'veria Series

"Tough and touching, resilient and raw -- Rajdeep Paulus has crafted a story of love and abuse with the deft touch of a master. SWIMMING THROUGH CLOUDS is profound, but never preachy. Paulus never allows her characters to be anything less than real and she never averts her pen from the realities that face far too many women and children."
--Tosca Lee, NY Times bestselling author of HAVAH and The Books of Mortals series with Ted Dekker

“Paulus is an exceptional writer! The essence of the human spirit are illuminated through the characters who come to life in each page. Paulus captures the heart of the reader in SWIMMING THROUGH CLOUDS.”
- Diana Mao, President of Nomi Network “

"I live in the in between. Between what if and what is. It’s how I manage. It’s the only way I know. Everyone has a way. This is mine."

Senior year kicks off when the words on a Post-it note spark a sticky romance between two unlikely friends. Transfer student Talia Vanderbilt has one goal at her new school: to blend in with the walls. Lagan Desai, basketball captain and mathlete, would do just about anything to befriend the new girl. One Post-it note at a time, Lagan persuades Talia to peel back her heart, slowly revealing a world where hope seems to lie around the corner she never turns.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Child abuse, domestic abuse, human trafficking, attempted suicide, verbal abuse.

Author BIO:

Rajdeep Paulus decided to be a writer during her junior year in high school after her English teacher told her, "Change is good. We're always changing. So yes, it's okay if you want to be a writer and not a doctor." Raj studied English Literature at Northwestern University and completed her MFA in Creative Writing and Literature at Stony Brook University. She writes masala-marinated, Young Adult Fiction.

When Paulus is not writing or reading, you can find her dancing with her girls, watching movies with her hubs, trying a new recipe, or sipping a cup of hot chai. Raj lives in New York with her Sunshine and four daughters.
