A Story of Love, Loss, and Rediscovery Vanilla Hour follows Dr. Nandini Yadav, a geochemist and devoted mother who has rebuilt her life after surviving personal trauma. When an unexpected reunion brings her back to Goa, the place where her past haunts her, she must confront the buried truths that have shaped her life and that of her daughter.

Vanilla Hour is a literary thriller that draws readers into the heart of human experience, inviting them to explore the deep connections between memory, love, and mercy. As Neer Ya describes, “The ghosts of love refuse to fade, and it’s in these moments, the Vanilla Hour , that we are forced to confront the past and move forward, illuminated by the light we have spent so long running from.” A Debut Author Who Speaks to the Human Condition Neer Ya’s background as a techie-banker by day and an author by night informs her nuanced approach to storytelling.
