- Worth fighting for / by Sutanto, Jesse Q.,author.;
"As the right hand of her father's hedge fund company, Fa Mulan knows what it takes to succeed as a woman in a man's world: work twice as hard, be twice as smart, and burp twice as loud as any of the other finance bros she works with. So when her father unexpectedly falls ill in the middle of a critical acquisition, she is determined to see it through. There's just one hitch: the family company in question is known for its ultra masculine whiskey brand, and the brood of old-fashioned aunts, uncles, and cousins who run it-lead by the dedicated but overworked Shang-will only trust Mulan's father, Fa Zhou, with the future of their business. Rather than fail the deal and her father, Mulan pretends she's Fa Zhou. Since they've only corresponded over email, how hard could it be to keep things moving in his absence? But the email leads to a face-to-face meeting, which leads to an invitation to a week long retreat at Shang's family ranch. One meeting she can handle, but a whole week of cattle wrangling, axe-throwing, and learning proper butchering techniques, all while trying to convince Shang's dubious family that this young woman is the powerful hedge fund CEO they've been negotiating with? Not so much-especially as she finds it harder and harder to ignore the undeniable spark between her and Shang. Can she keep her head in the game and make her father proud, all while trying not to fall into a trough, or in love with Shang?"--
