1st printing. Written byGene Luen Yang. Art and cover by LeUyen Pham. Two graphic novel superstars join forces in this heartwarming rom-com about fate, family, forgiveness, and lion dancing! Valentina Tran used to love Valentine's Day. But when she learns the truth behind her parents' separation, she concludes true love is a lie. A ghoulish visage of Saint Valentine appears and promises to protect Val from heartbreak-but only if she gives up on love. Permanently. Suddenly, cousins Leslie and Jae come roaring into Val's life-literally. They're lion dancers, and during one fateful Lunar New Year performance, the lion they're inside hands Val a paper heart. And in that moment, Val feels... something again. Is that feeling love? Could this be Val's chance to break the family curse? Or is she destined to have a broken heart forever? Softcover, 6-in. x 8 1/2-in., 352 pages, full color. Cover price $17.99.
