It is the year 2013. Parsley Wang, an employee of Sin Man Bank, has another romantic failure that she blames on her destiny as a dutiful Chinese daughter living with an elderly widowed mother whose Chinese-ness is at odds with her desire to assimilate.
Grace Kim, Parsley's best friend and co-worker, signs up for a post at the new overseas bank branch in Beijing. She believes it would benefit Parsley to work there, too and signs her up without telling her.
Mr. McGee, the widowed neighbor who harbors romantic feelings for Mrs. Wang (unbeknownst to her and Parsley), assures Parsley he can help out her mother, Mrs. Wang, while Parsley is away.
Beijing unexpectedly dazzles Parsley with striking new buildings, scenic parks, and palaces. She immerses herself in the city and its culture and begins to appreciate her Chinese heritage. And she meets a Chinese Canadian named Andrew Han.
But not all is well. Tina Grecian, the Beijing branch head, works with Jim Clark, a regional head of the bank in the U.S., to embezzle money from the bank for a dream life in Buenos Aires and will let nothing get in her way. And Mr. McGee's daughter, Wynn, and her sister Megan want Mrs. Wang out of their father's life.

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
