Fake Dates and Mooncakes
ByPublisher Description
Heartstopper meets Crazy Rich Asians in this heartfelt, joyful paperback original rom-com that follows an aspiring chef who discovers the recipe for love is more complicated than it seems when he starts fake-dating a handsome new customer.
Dylan Tang wants to win a Mid-Autumn Festival mooncake-making competition for teen chefs—in memory of his mom, and to bring much-needed publicity to his aunt’s struggling Chinese takeout in Brooklyn.
Enter Theo Somers: charming, wealthy, with a smile that makes Dylan’s stomach do backflips. AKA a distraction. Their worlds are sun-and-moon apart, but Theo keeps showing up. He even convinces Dylan to be his fake date at a family wedding in the Hamptons.
In Theo’s glittering world of pomp, privilege, and crazy rich drama, their romance is supposed to be just pretend . . . but Dylan finds himself falling for Theo. For real. Then Theo’s relatives reveal their true colors—but with the mooncake contest looming, Dylan can’t risk being sidetracked by rich-people problems.
Can Dylan save his family’s business and follow his heart—or will he fail to do both?

“a cute cliché romance. loved the construction of dylan and theo's relationshipp and how the author wrote about grief, depression and alcohol addiction.
my favourite thing was to see how close dylan's family was to eachother and how they also slowly became theo's family. aunt jade's resilience was very admirable but my favourite characters were without a doubt terri and megan.
perfect for anyone who thrives on happy endings, dogs and, of course, blackpink (really one of my favourite things in this book was the blackpink mentions)!”

“This was cute. Dylan tries to win a Mooncake competition to save his family restaurant. While making take out deliveries he meets wealthy Theo who asks Dylan to fake date him.
I liked the diversity and learning about Singaporean-Chinese foods and traditions.”
