I went in thinking that this book was going to be a semi spicy office romance (again thank you Netflix), but got a powerful realistic few on what it’s like being a minority in a white collar male driven industry. Ingrid Yung’s life is full of “firsts.” A first-generation Chinese-American, the first lawyer in her family, she’s about to collect the Holy Grail of “firsts” –she’s about to become the first minority woman to make partner at the venerable old law firm, Parsons Valentine & Hunt LLP. It’s a win-win situation and Perdie knows it… but struggles are struggles and the reader fights through all of them with her, hoping that one day she’ll realise …

Great.” Adler smiled. “Oh, and Ingrid,” he added in a low voice, almost as an afterthought, “I want you to understand…” He paused conspiratorially.

His voice was deep and growly, yet I had always thought there was something kind about it, too. I rather liked it. Of course,” Adler went on, “the client wants it done yesterday. This deal’s on a rush timetable, so I’d need you to focus on it as your top priority. That is, if you’re able to take it on.” He paused a moment to let this sink in. He knew exactly what kind of opportunity he was dangling in front of me. I loved the closing of every deal. I could feel the power and influence that coursed through these conference rooms like electrical currents high atop the city. I loved listening to closing dinner toasts at Jean Georges or La Grenouille at the very moment that gazillions of dollars, or yen, or euros, were originating from somewhere and landing, through the miracle of wire transfer, in our clients’ bank accounts halfway around the globe. It was thrilling, the promise of such a world.

Behind Helen Wan's wit and sparkling prose is a poignant and at times, painfully honest tale of loyalty, ambition and sacrifice. Funny, fragile, sometimes bold, often unsure, Ingrid Yung is one of those unforgettable heroines that you actually miss, like a dear friend, when the story's over.” — Ann Leary, New York Times bestselling author of The Good HouseGeorgia Lee spoke to Deadline shortly following the release of season 1 and discussed where they’d head in season 2. Here’s some of the key points discussed: Ingrid is a nice person and she truly cares about others and the author did a wonderful job of conveying that. The book was very well written, very moving.
