Product Description

Synopsis

Exotic and beautiful, Jade has everything going for her: a wonderful job as a clothing designer, an adoring boyfriend, and a chi-chi apartment on New York's West Side. But while sorting through boxes of aged memorabilia in her adoptive parents' attic, she uncovers the startling truth of her real parents - a teenaged Vietnamese mother and a black U.S. soldier - in papers reaching back through the years and across the ocean. Feeling betrayed and lost, Jade embarks on a journey of self-discovery that takes her to the war-scarred heart of Ho Chi Minh City, with its sensual taxi girls, seedy hotels, and an unexpected surprise: a tall, dark brother from DC with hurts of his own. Aidan was just a child when his father went missing, and his mother's house remains a virtual shrine to the long-lost P.O.W. Finally ready to break his mother's dependency on him and move on with his life, Jade is looking more and more like his future. Thrown together by circumstance, haunted by the echoes of the past, Jade and Aidan are determined to discover the truth, even if the truth doesn't want to be found.

It's a quest that will challenge all they know about love and forgiveness, mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, friends and lovers. But with each heartbreaking realisation, Jade uncovers the greatest truth of all - that the bonds of true family are more than just blood: they are connections forged in the heart, where they can never be torn apart.
