Summary:
"From the critically acclaimed author of Natalie Tan'
s
Book of Luck and Fortune comes a delightful new novel about exploring all the
magical
possibilities of life in the most extraordinary city of all:
Paris
.
Vanessa
Yu
never wanted to see people'
s
fortunes -- or misfortunes -- in
tea
leaves. Ever since she can remember,
Vanessa
has been able to see people'
s
fortunes at the bottoms of their teacups. To avoid blurting out fortunes, she converts to coffee, but somehow the fortunes escape and find a way to complicate her life and the lives of those around her. To add to this plight, her romantic life is so nonexistent that her parents enlist the services of a matchmaking expert from Shanghai. After her matchmaking appointment,
Vanessa
sees death for the first time. She decides that she can't truly live until she can find a way to get rid of her uncanny abilities. When her eccentric aunt Evelyn shows up with a tempting offer to whisk her away,
Vanessa
says au revoir to California and bonjour to
Paris
. There,
Vanessa
learns more about herself and the root of her gifts, and realizes one thing to be true: Knowing one'
s
destiny isn't a curse, but being unable to change it is."--Publisher.
