Seventeen-year-old Harseerat "Seerat" Kaur is shattered when her mother passes away after a long illness. In the aftermath, Seerat and her father relocate from their small, tight-knit Punjabi community in Ohio to bustling Queens, New York-a move meant to help them both start over. As a senior at a new high school, Seerat feels like an outsider-torn between grief, cultural expectations, and finding her place in a city that moves faster than her thoughts.
But everything begins to change when she meets two vibrant girls who slowly pull her out of her shell, and a mysterious guy named Kanwar Singh Ghotra with secrets of his own. Together, they navigate love, loss, healing, and the power of connection in unexpected places.
