Review: Has a charm all its own

The plot of this story is simple and charming. Combining the adopted brothers into a multi-racial family was a good twist on the usual family setting.The romantic liaison between the Chinese American Jin and the Chinese Mei-Ling, and using the cultural differences between them as the sticking point, is excellent. The other members of the family come through as being very engaging. I must make mention of the cover which is striking!I would guess that this author is just starting out in her career as a writer and although this story has a few rough edges-change of tense, "telling" a little more than necessary-there is enormous potential for the future.Well done, and keep writing!
