Ian and Aisha — a series by SilkStories

When their flight from Tokyo crashes over the Pacific, Ian and Aisha wake as sole survivors on an uninhabited island. Both married, both haunted by families waiting at home, every barrier between them slowly dissolves under the intimacy of survival. Told in dual perspectives.

Some stories cannot be left alone. They follow you home. One month after landing at LAX, Aisha Johnson is living the life she returned to — her career, her marriage, her son Dominic. But something came back from Japan with her that she cannot explain and cannot ignore. This is the story of a woman who discovered what she truly wanted — and what she was willing to do to find it.

Born on an uncharted Pacific island to Ian and Aisha, fifteen-year-old Naomi has never known another world. When a helicopter arrives, her family reluctantly returns to Los Angeles — a city utterly foreign to a girl raised by jungle and ocean. As Ian and Aisha navigate impossible reunions with the lives they left behind, Naomi must confront a world that sees her differently. But the island never leaves those it claims.

Torn from her parents, Naomi McGregor now lives in Los Angeles with her real-world mother, Aisha. Caught between two lives, she carries the island within her. But reality is beginning to fracture—and somewhere far away, her true parents are still searching.
