Stealing Thunder by Alina Boyden

When Razia, Bikampur's greatest thief and dancing girl, finds herself dancing for the maharaja's son, the handsome prince Arjun, she knows that she's playing with fire. As a trans girl known as hijra, she can never be a wife to any man, and as the former crown prince of the Sultanate of Nizam, she has to guard her identity carefully. As her romance with Arjun blossoms, Razia finds herself once more thrust into the dangerous world of politics in Daryastan, and in order to survive, she will need the skills of courtesan, thief, and a warrior princess.
Alina Boyden is a trans rights activist, author, and PhD candidate in cultural anthropology. As an ACLU client, her case secured healthcare rights for transgender employees in the state of Wisconsin. Her work in cultural anthropology centers on the civil rights struggles of transgender women in India and Pakistan, and consequently she divides her time between the United States and South Asia. When she's not writing, traveling, or working on her dissertation, she spends her free time indulging in two of her childhood passions - swordplay and flying airplanes.

STEALING THUNDER is her first novel.
