' If Jane Austen and Kevin Kwan had a love child, it might well be Lucie Yi Is Not A Romantic' JODI PICOULTLucie Yi has tried love - it didn' t work. She' s decided that finding Mr Right is a myth, and that finding Mr Right-enough-to-have-children-with is the next best option. So when she meets easy-going Collin Read on a platonic co-parenting website, it finally feels like she has found her version of happily ever after. But things take a turn for the worse when they move back home to Singapore where her very traditional family and remorseful ex-fiance await. With pressure mounting on all sides and her perfect plan unravelling, Lucie has to decide how much she' s willing to sacrifice for a chance at happiness - and maybe, just maybe, love.
