Five-Star Stranger - A Novel

“Provocative, self-assured…Tang plays deftly with the conventions of romantic comedy... A smart look at people-pleasing taken to its illogical extreme.” —Kirkus, STARRED REVIEW

A short, powerful, and funny debut novel about a “rental stranger” whose ongoing role as a part-time father to a young girl sparks questions about ethics, identity, and love.
