Synopsis

San Francisco attorney Cecily Chang is ready to tackle the New Year head on, so she creates a list of resolutions guaranteed to reboot her life—right after her dutiful visit home to Sunset Park, Brooklyn, for the Lunar New Year. Cecily prepares to face her critical, meddling mother, nosy relatives, and the chaos and drama family togetherness brings. At least the food will be delicious. This holiday, Cecily vows to remain calm—as long as she doesn’t see him. Jeffrey Lee deeply regrets how he ended things with Cecily ten years ago, but he felt it was best for her at the time. When he runs into her again during the New Year, he sees it as a sign. Now a successful screenwriter, Jeffrey is determined to win back Cecily’s heart. But Cecily doesn’t believe in signs or second chances and embraces her new resolutions. This time, Jeffrey won’t give up—and he’s convinced he can write them a new Hollywood happy ending.

Goodreads review by Jennifer on January 21, 2023

I liked it… but it did not pull me in and keep me engaged the whole time. There were lots of “a new weeks later” or “months later.” The time hopping keeps you from being fully brought in and invested. I liked Cecily and Jeffrey individually, but not necessarily together. Which I hate to say., but it......more

Goodreads review by Shannon on January 27, 2023

If, after 10 years, I ever run into the guy who dumped me right before our wedding (and who I’ve been in love with since I was 6) and kiss him passionately after three short interactions, you have permission to slap me upside the head. Unfortunately, in this book, Cecily had no one to do such a thin......more
