Book Synopsis:

On the precipice of Y2K in New York City, 22-year-old Lily Chen meets Matthew. Matthew is everything Lily is not: easygoing and effortlessly attractive, and heir to a pharmaceutical empire. Lily couldn’t be more different: flat-broke, the only child of scientists who fled Mao’s Cultural Revolution. But Lily and Matthew fall in love.
In 2021, 15-year-old Nick Chen has never felt like he belonged on the Washington island where he lives with his single mother, Lily. When Nick sets out to find his biological father, the journey threatens to raise more questions than it provides answers.
