About this listen
Lucie Yi has tried love – it didn’t work.
She’s decided that finding Mr Right is a myth, and that finding Mr Right-enough-to-have-children-with is the next best option. So when she meets easy-going Collin Read on a platonic co-parenting website, it finally feels like she has found her version of happily ever after.
But things take a turn for the worse when they move back home to Singapore where her very traditional family and remorseful ex-fiancé await.
With pressure mounting on all sides and her perfect plan unravelling, Lucie has to decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice for a chance at happiness – and maybe, just maybe, love.

At 33, Andrea Tang is living the dream: She has a successful career as a lawyer, a posh condo, and a clutch of fun-loving friends who are always in the know about Singapore's hottest clubs and restaurants. All she has to do is make partner at her law firm and she will have achieved everything she's worked for. And if she's about to become the lone unmarried member of her generation in the Tang clan - a disappointment her meddling Chinese Malaysian family won't let her forget - well, who needs a husband, anyway?

Izumi Tanaka has never really felt like she fit in - it isn’t easy being Japanese American in her small, mostly White, northern California town. Raised by a single mother, it’s always been Izumi - or Izzy, because “it’s easier this way” - and her mom against the world. But then Izumi discovers a clue to her previously unknown father’s identity...and he’s none other than the Crown Prince of Japan. Which means outspoken, irreverent Izzy is literally a princess.

Sasha has had it. She cannot bring herself to respond to another inane, “urgent” email or participate in the corporate employee joyfulness program. She hasn’t seen her friends in months. Sex? Seems like a lot of effort. Even cooking dinner takes far too much planning. Sasha has hit a wall. Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga, and find peace, she heads to the seaside resort she loved as a child. But it’s the off season, the hotel is in a dilapidated shambles, and she has to share the beach with the only other occupant: a grumpy guy named Finn.

Critic reviews
‘If Jane Austen and Kevin Kwan had a love child, it might well be LUCIE YI IS NOT A ROMANTIC. Lauren Ho’s most recent novel sits delightfully at the juncture of modern fertility, modern women, and modern romance’ JODI PICOULT
‘LUCIE YI IS NOT A ROMANTIC kept me gripped from the very first page. It's full of humour and heart’ BETH O’LEARY
‘Lucie Yi is not a romantic but she is funny, clever and utterly compelling. A razor sharp story of family, friendship and love in all its many forms, I devoured Lucie Yi in a single sitting. Lauren Ho's writing is so witty and relatable, I would read her shopping list if she published it’ LINDSEY KELK
‘Smart, funny, heartfelt and definitely romantic – I loved it!’ SARAH MORGAN
‘Fresh, funny and thought-provoking – Lucie Yi is a romantic heroine for the 21st century’ SOPHIE COUSENS
‘Fresh, funny and moving, you’ll be hooked’ Heat
‘A gloriously entertaining and completely addictive read. Warm, sharply-observed and wickedly funny’ NICOLA GILL
‘A beautiful exploration of both grief and romance starring a lovably hilarious heroine’ Kirkus Reviews
‘With her signature warmth and wit, Lauren Ho explores the trials of elective parenting, pregnancy, dating and family conflicts. Lucie Yi is certainly not a romantic, but she navigates her relationships and friendships with love, generosity and vulnerability. This is a hilarious and honest novel about a woman living on her own terms’ BALLI KAUR JASWAL, author of Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows
‘a story of love and friendship, humour and sadness, and, above all, of being true to yourself’ My Weekly
‘Prepare yourselves for a heroine who is laugh-out-loud funny and incredibly savvy. Lauren Ho is an auto-buy author for me!’ JESSE SUTANTO, author of Dial A for Aunties

My first mistake was hooking up with my best friend. My second came years later, when we met again, and I fell for her. My third was letting her go, because I had to. Because a love like this wasn't built to withstand the winds coming in our direction. Love and timing. I didn't believe in either. Then there was you....
