Intrigue & romance result in "edge of the seat" conclusion.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The timeless themes of intrigue and star-crossed romance intermingle as China enters the next phase of its history. East meets West, but politics (including some comic relief) and parental concern work together to thwart their union at the 11th hour. Karen Hulene Bartell has proven she's as adept at writing contemporary fiction as she is text- and cookbooks. I found the book hard to put down for a second, even when confronted with Chinese idioms...and idiosyncracies, both of which truly were inscrutable.
