Then get ready for:
WHO
Lindsey Owyang, raised on Spaghetti-O's and Aaron Spelling productions
WHAT
Her Secret Asian Man finally proposes!
WHERE
Springtime in San Francisco and it's raining stone cold foxes
HOW
Lindsey wants to make her peace with Chinatown & country, but will a crotchety Chinese grandmother stand in her way?
WHY
Because she never expected her hottie crush from sixth grade to show up now ...
As Lindsey continues her quest for identity, family secrets, and true love, will she find double happiness, or will she be tempted by one last lion dance with a stranger? Ultimately, Lindsey realizes that Chinese girls really wanna have chow fun.
About the Author
In the fourth grade, Kim Wong Keltner won a cutthroat spelling bee, which encouraged her aspirations as a writer. Over the years, she honed her ear for dialogue by listening to elderly Chinese women dish dirt over endless games of mahjong. She met her husband at a Chaucer seminar when she stretched out her hand and said, "Come with me if you want to live." They now reside in San Francisco's Sunset District, where all the other Chinese people live.
