Sometimes the greatest step forward is the one guided by love.
My father’s heritage was the quest. His best friend’s son, however, is the surprise.
Hung Ly is my translator, my guide, and unexpectedly, my favorite distraction.
He speaks impeccable English, has a smile that undermines my better judgment, and knows Saigon like the back of his hand.
He was a practical solution. He is becoming an emotional complication.
Between bustling markets and quiet conversations, I’m collecting more than stories about my father.
I’m collecting moments with Hung.
Laughter over bowls of phở, confidences shared on the back of his motorcycle, a spark that feels thrillingly real.
This journey was meant to connect me with my past.
I never planned on a connection that would redefine my future.

Review of advance copy received from Publisher
A quest to find her deceased father's best friend sends Jinny to Vietnam. Her father's friend is no longer in the city but his son, Hung, feels honor bound to assist Jinny in finding people who knew her father. The sights and sounds of Vietnam come to life as the venture through the city and across the country in their search. Hung locates Jinny's estranged Uncle and the secrets of her father's immigration to the US are revealed. As the search progresses, Jinny and Hung begin to develop feelings for each other. Will their romance survive when Jinny returns to America? Another exciting story from Sherry Aab. I received a complimentary copy from the publisher.

This is a lovely story of adventure and finding romance in Saigon with the son of her dad's friend, when Jinny travels to visit the places where her dad used to live and retrace his history.
Loved the journey both Jinny and Hung Ly go on to find her dad's friends and how their love blossoms.
The description of Saigon made me feel I was there.
Would highly recommend.
