Abstract:
"In the final days of the Việt Nam War, Ha̐ng takes her little brother, Linh, to the airport, determined to find a way to safety in America. In a split second, Linh is ripped from her arms--and Ha̐ng is left behind in the war-torn country. Six years later, Ha̐ng has made the brutal journey from Việt Nam and is now in Texas as a refugee. She doesn't know how she will find the little brother who was taken from her until she meets LeeRoy, a city boy with big rodeo dreams, who decides to help her. Ha̐ng is overjoyed when she reunites with Linh. But when she realizes he doesn't remember her, their family, or Việt Nam, her heart is crushed. Though the distance between them feels greater than ever, Ha̐ng has come so far that she will do anything to bridge the gap"-- Provided by publisher.
