Can first love strike gold when given a second chance?
Renee Goh appears to have it all: a thriving fashion business in London, a wardrobe to die for and a popular pop star for a boyfriend . . . until she’s dumped.
Estranged from her family in Singapore, Renee finds herself at a crossroads – especially after a chance encounter with an old flame, Yap Ket Siong, makes her question what she really wants.
When Renee’s father calls and throws another curveball into her life, offering her the chance to become his successor to the family business, she is torn. Her father’s approval would mean everything – if she can fight off the competition from her older brothers.
Just as she’s focusing on moving back to Singapore, sparks seriously start to fly with Ket Siong. With the family business beckoning, should Renee follow her head or her heart? Because one thing’s for certain: Ket Siong is shaking her resolve to keep him in the friend zone . . .
From the renowned, award-winning author Zen Cho comes a delightfully funny romance about Southeast Asian families, class and love in modern London.
