Capture A Husband: My Asian Mother's Quest

"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. [WARNING: Some chapters may contain mature R-18 content.] --- Book cover by Sendaline_16

Laurie buried her face on her pillow in embarrassment. She kicked Jiro's leg when she heard him chuckling behind her. 

"Go to sleep. Stop thinking of how to take advantage of me. I'm kind enough to share my bed. Don't think of other things." He said and she heard the clicking of his laptop keys. He must have started working, just like what he said. 

She listened to the rhythmic clicking of his laptop keyboard and in no time, her eyelids dropped and her breathing even out. She fell asleep. 

Jiro glanced at Laurie who was hugging her pillow like her life was dependent on it. A wide grin spread across his face. She looks too adorable. He tried to concentrate on his task and didn't think of how the curve of her body despite the heavy blanket covering her—which was like one of her guitars was showing as she turned to her side. He wondered how she would sound if he pulled her strings.
