Jade isn't even my real name. Jade began as my Starbucks name, because all children of immigrants have a Starbucks name.
Jade has become everything she ever wanted to be.
Successful lawyer.
Dutiful daughter.
Beloved girlfriend.
Loyal friend.
Until one night after a work event she suffers an unspeakable attack.
As she tries to confront what happened to her, she finds herself caught between her parents who can't understand, her boyfriend who feels betrayed, and her job that expects silence.
The world Jade has constructed starts to crumble.
This raw, darkly funny novel explores the 'grey-area' of consent and recovery that's far from linear, and will leave you asking yourself: what would you have done in Jade's situation?
