Sometimes the greatest step forward is the one guided by love.

I'm a Starbucks barista from Boulder, Colorado, I fly to Saigon with my savings.
My father’s heritage was the quest. His best friend’s son, however, is the surprise.
Hung Ly is my translator, my guide, and unexpectedly, my favorite distraction.
He speaks impeccable English, has a smile that undermines my better judgment, and knows Saigon like the back of his hand.
He was a practical solution. He is becoming an emotional complication.
Between bustling markets and quiet conversations, I’m collecting more than stories about my father.
I’m collecting moments with Hung.
Laughter over bowls of phở, confidences shared on the back of his motorcycle, a spark that feels thrillingly real.
This journey was meant to connect me with my past.
I never planned on a connection that would redefine my future.

A charming, sun-soaked romance about culture, family, and the love that finds you when you’re looking the other way.
