Fake-dates, mooncakes and rich people problems. But love wasn’t meant to be on the menu …
Meet Dylan Tang: he juggles school and delivery runs for his aunt’s struggling Chinese takeout in Brooklyn. Winning a mooncake competition could bring the publicity they need to stay afloat. Enter Theo Somers: a charming, wealthy customer who convinces Dylan to be his fake date to a family wedding full of crazy rich drama. Their romance is supposed to be just for show . . . but soon Dylan’s falling for Theo. For real.
With the mooncake contest looming, Dylan can’t risk being distracted by rich-people problems. Can he save his family’s business and follow his heart-or will he fail to do both?

This is quite simply a beautiful love story between Dylan (who juggles Senior year of High school and helping his Aunt at her takeaway) and Theo (who Dylan encounters on a delivery, also a Senior Year High Schooler but at a private school).
At the heart of the story is the mooncake contest, which Dylan wants to enter to help garner attention for his Aunt’s business while also honouring his late mother’s memory. The contest comes around at the same time he mets Theo and gets talked into being his ‘fake’ date to a family wedding. Theo’s very rich family, and his money does get between the two of them right from the start.
This story has everything: romance, rich people drama, and that aching longing feeling you get when you want nothing more than for two characters to end up very happy together. And mooncakes, lots of mooncakes and Singaporean cuisine: read with a snack, you will get hungry because of all the delicious food that gets described.
