"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking  o'clock in the morning.

"It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered.

"Well that's exactly, why I am asking!"  she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime.

With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone.

***
When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do?

Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you?

And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. 

What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! 

But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. 

Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest.

Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

She flinched inwardly when she felt Dominic's fingers brushed the tears that escaped her eyes. She blinked to stop any more tears from falling.

"Can you give me a chance to take you out and talk about what happened?"

Dominic stared at her and said, "For me. Because I'm greedy."

She scoffed. She's not going to deny that deep inside her, she wanted to give him a chance, not just him but also herself. She wanted to know what happened after they parted. Not because she has a plan to get back together. Simply because years had already passed and things were different now.

She wiped the corner of her eyes and stood up from her chair. "I'll think about it."

"Can I have your number?" He grinned impishly.
