Resumen del Editor

A whip-smart and charming debut novel that brilliantly reimagines Pride and Prejudice, set in contemporary Chinatown, exploring contemporary issues of class divides, family ties, cultural identity, and the pleasures and frustrations that come with falling in love.

When Elizabeth Chen’s ever-hustling realtor mother finally sells the beloved if derelict community center down the block, the new owners don’t look like typical New York City buyers. Brendan Lee and Darcy Wong are good Chinese boys with Hong Kong money. Clean-cut and charismatic, they say they are committed to cleaning up the neighborhood. To Elizabeth, that only means one thing: Darcy is looking to give the center an uptown makeover.

Elizabeth is determined to fight for community over profit, even if it means confronting the arrogant, uptight man every chance she gets. But where clever, cynical Elizabeth sees lemons, her mother sees lemonade. Eager to get Elizabeth and her other four daughters ahead in the world (and out of their crammed family apartment), Mrs. Chen takes every opportunity to keep her investors close. Closer than Elizabeth likes.

The more time they spend together, the more conflicted Elizabeth feels…until a shocking betrayal forces her to reconsider everything she thought she knew about love, trust, and the kind of person Darcy Wong really is.

Nostalgia Fest

I absolutely loved Good Fortune. It took me back to my high school days in so many ways. The dark room photo processing, cell phones as a rare commodity, the Fashion Bug clothing... It was a complete nostalgia fest and I loved every minute I spent losing myself in this audiobook. Elizabeth and Darcy's love story is such a fun ride, too. From LB's initial (completely off-base) terrible first impression of Darcy, to the revelation about Ray and beyond, I was completely hooked. I truly can't recommend this book enough, and I can't wait to see more from this author.

Truly delightful!

Yes, I admit I’ve read quite a few books inspired by Pride and Prejudice, but Good Fortune is a new and entirely welcome addition to the field. Wonderful characters in a Chinese family in New York and the folks in their orbit had me as engaged as the original. Entertaining and laugh out load funny.
