Her family members accomplished their dream of relocating from Hong Kong to Vancouver, B.C., but they don't understand that Jenny and her brother Ben have their dreams too. Ben longs to become a professional musician and twenty-two-year-old Jenny wants to become a popular romance novelist.
As her wedding draws closer, Jenny flees her well-to-do home. She learns to survive in a tough world that she never dreamed existed. While hiding from her family, Jenny meets the mysterious Lukas Hanh, the biggest Chinese man she has ever seen. Jenny loses her heart, but gains still more trouble in her life.
How can she love Lukas when she has already promised her great-grandmother she will marry Edward? And how can she marry Edward when Lukas is the one she truly wants? Jenny loves the Old One dearly, but her great-grandmother just doesn't understand. And Jenny's vivid imagination is failing her this time because she really has no idea what to do.
