I also think Esme’s “reveal” at the end was overlooked way too easily. I think his perception of love was very realistic especially considering what he went through with his cousin. I felt like that part went on too long but I loved when he actually started getting to know her and caring about her. I didn’t like that he only lusted after her at first. I loved how Khai got to know Esme and appreciated her. I really hated how some of his family treated him, especially since they know he has autism. I also loved Khai and his struggle with his feelings. I loved that even though she came to the US to try and marry Khai, she still focused on improving herself and she had other goals/another life outside of just Khai. With Esme's time in the United States dwindling, Khai is forced to understand he's been wrong all along. She's hopelessly smitten with a man who's convinced he can never return her affection. Esme's lessons in love seem to be working.but only on herself. Seducing Khai, however, doesn't go as planned. When the opportunity arises to come to America and meet a potential husband, she can't turn it down, thinking this could be the break her family needs. When he steadfastly avoids relationships, his mother takes matters into her own hands and returns to Vietnam to find him the perfect bride.Īs a mixed-race girl living in the slums of Ho Chi Minh City, Esme Tran has always felt out of place. His family knows better-that his autism means he just processes emotions differently. Well, he feels irritation when people move his things or contentment when ledgers balance down to the penny, but not big, important emotions-like grief. From the USA Today bestselling author of The Kiss Quotient comes a romantic novel about love that crosses international borders and all boundaries of the heart.
