Description

A warm, witty, and deeply moving novel about three generations of Vietnamese American women whose lives intersect in a close-knit Orange County family. When an old family curse threatens to shape the future of the Hoang women, long-buried secrets, strained relationships, and questions of love and belonging rise to the surface. As they navigate romance, motherhood, grief, and cultural expectations, they must decide whether their fortunes are truly fixed—or whether they can create new ones together. Blending family drama, humor, and intergenerational insight, this debut celebrates resilience, identity, and the bonds that endure across generations.
