He's a heart-weary writer. She's a cutthroat headhuntress. When their lips touch, will their affections survive a global pandemic?
Beautiful, ambitious, and worldly, Lin is a headhunter who finds talent from all over the world to fill top executive positions. At thirty-five, she is satisfied with her career but wonders if she’ll ever marry or have children.
Colin, a forty-two-year-old green-eyed Englishman with a quietly confident smile, creates the stories that bring video games to life. A professional connection turns personal, and the two fall in love as a Beijing spring comes into bloom.
Meanwhile, a new virus initially seems less dangerous than the flu, but spreads with deadly speed. Will the stringent safety protocols keep Lin and Colin apart?
This is the story of two people who find themselves powerfully drawn together despite the vast differences in their cultural backgrounds. It’s an up-close look at modern life in Beijing against the backdrop of the coronavirus pandemic. Finally, it’s an exploration of the mysterious forces that create romance when we least expect it.
That Spring In Beijing is a touching and hopeful contemporary love story. If you like soulful characters, stirring drama, and meaningful bonds in our modern era, then you’ll adore Paul C. R. Monk’s moving story of love in a forbidden city.

Paul C. R. Monk grew up in the south east of England then spent many years living in France with a 3-year stint in Spain and, more recently, he has been spending time in China. He trained as a linguist and worked for 9 years as a teacher before becoming a script writer on scores of projects, one of which won him a Writers Guild of America Awards nomination for outstanding writing. He is currently working on a historical fiction series, which follows the true story of a merchant family during the world-shaking drama of Louis XIV's revocation of religious tolerance. The Huguenot Connection trilogy, which includes Merchants of Virtue, Voyage of Malice and Land of Hope, takes the reader from King Louis's France to the Caribbean, and from London to colonial New York, with drama-filled stops in the Rhine Valley and war-torn Ireland... His novel set in contemporary China is titled That Spring In Beijing.
