A luminous young adult romance about two teens who devote themselves to granting other people's wishes but are too afraid to let themselves have their own hearts' desires--each other.

A heartfelt story about the beauty of Chinese culture, first loves, and finding magical moments in everyday life.--Emiko Jean, New York Times bestselling author of Tokyo Ever After

Liya and Kai had been best friends since they were little kids, but all that changed when a humiliating incident sparked The Biggest Misunderstanding of All Time--and they haven't spoken since.

Then Liya discovers her family's wishing lantern store is struggling, and she decides to resume a tradition she had with her beloved late grandmother: secretly fulfilling the wishes people write on the lanterns they send into the sky. It may boost sales and save the store, but she can't do it alone . . . and Kai is the only one who cares enough to help.

While working on their covert missions, Liya and Kai rekindle their friendship--and maybe more. But when their feuding families and changing futures threaten to tear them apart again, can they find a way to make their own wishes come true?
