So We Meet Again

Sparks fly between reunited rivals in this heartwarming and empowering romance from Park (Loathe at First Sight). Jessica Kim is left reeling when she’s let go from her Wall Street job. Lost and disheartened, she returns to Nashville to live with her parents while strategizing next steps. It’s the worst possible moment for her to run into her childhood nemesis, “Korean Boy Wonder” Daniel Choi, who has become the living embodiment of everything Jess currently lacks: success, composure, and a knack for charming everyone he meets. Though Jess refuses to admit it, even she’s not immune. And as they spend time together, she can’t deny the chemistry between them, nor the fact that it’s Daniel who inspires her to start her own streaming channel featuring cooking hacks with a Korean flair. Jess flourishes as a budding entrepreneur, rediscovering how important her cultural roots and family are to her; meanwhile, she slowly comes to terms with the fact that dashing Daniel may be the perfect fit for her after all. Park is a master in crafting comedic yet endearing moments that become the foundation for intricate character development. This is sure to be a hit. Agent: Brent Taylor, Triada US Literary. (Aug.)
