Valentina Tran was named after Valentine’s Day, which used to be her favorite holiday when she was younger. Then she found out the truth about why she and her dad live alone and all thoughts of romance and love went out the window. The Cupid that used to be her imaginary friend is replaced with Saint Valentine, a ghostly figure who wants Val to give him her heart once and for all. When Val joins lion dancing she starts spending time with a boy she believes will be worth her heart, but Les doesn’t want to commit. His cousin, Jae, however, listens to Val and connects with her about the loss of a parent. When Lunar New Year shows up their senior year, Val must make a decision to either give her heart away to the boy she likes or Saint Valentine.
