Lin Min-min was born in Tainan and left it at eighteen. She has never once been a tourist there.
When her business partner forces her to take the first holiday of her adult life, she books ten nights in a shophouse guesthouse on Shennong Street instead of her mother's spare room, turns her phone face-down, and sets out to see the oldest city in Taiwan the way strangers do. Beef soup at six. The fort. Salt fields at sunset.
Her window faces a lane temple under scaffolding. The man on the plank is repainting its door gods in hand-ground green and gold, forty days for a pair of doors, and he asks her not to photograph them until they're finished. You'd be posting the wrong hour.
Wu Tien-yang doesn't rush anything meant to last. Min-min has nine days, a career built on knowing when to leave, and a mother who has already checked his family's gold.
In Tainan the light is best at 3:33 in the afternoon. She is about to learn what it costs to stay in it.
A steamy, slow-burn contemporary romance with a hard-won happy ending. Book 2 of Honest Hours; stands alone. Contains sensual adult content. 18+.
