Nineteen-year-old Taiwanese Mormon girl, ALLISON HONG, meets twenty-year-old rebellious American Mormon missionary, CAMERON CHASTAIN, in Taipei and elopes with him to his hometown in Texas when she is twenty-two. Sixteen months into their marriage, one day Allison goes home to their apartment and discovers that during her two-hour absence Cameron has moved everything out, cut off all services, withdrawn all the money in their bank account, and served her divorce papers. From a powerless, abandoned immigrant bride to a confident woman in command of her own destiny, 99 Fire Hoops, A Memoir tells the story of how Allison’s choice to break the Chinese cultural expectation for women to submit to men’s will allows her to create her own destiny.
