Wow!! So good! A murder mystery combined with a love story combined with a coming of age. Couldn’t put it down

I absolutely loved this book. Mix romance and a dead body with some comedy and you’ll get this book. I love the Asian Aunties that are in this book, probably because I have Asian Aunties of my own that act like this. This book just hits so close to home I love it.

This book was so much fucking fun to read. All of the aunties are hilarious. I really like the Asian representation. The plot was seamless and easy to follow. The romance was adorable. It was a page turner since it was so entertaining. This is a fantastic book. Loved it.

Family guilt. A gorgeous resort. Millionaire families. A wedding. A lost love. And a dead man.
Meddy fell in love as a freshman- Nathan was her best friend before they both realized they were into each other.
At graduation, Nathan is offered his dream job. Meddy's aunties and mother just started a wedding business- with her as the photographer. Bravely Meddy breaks up with Nathan - only to mourn her loss.
Four years pass by - her family's business is hired for the wedding of the year - a bride and groom from crazy wealthy families.
The night before, Meddy's mother confesses she created an online dating profile, posing as Meddy. She made a date to finally meet charming, Jake.
Meddy agrees to the date. Only ending up with a dead Jake. Meddy goes home - Meddy, aunties, mother struggle to hide the body.
Add in family guilt. Her lost love on the scene again. Family guilt. Wealthy clients. And chaos.
Enjoyable, hilarious and sweet. Highly recommend.

The writing was bad.
The plot was bad. Ridiculous but not in a good way. Just not believable and too many things didn't make sense.
The characters were immature. Family dynamics were dysfunctional.
Poor to zero communication between the main character and her love interest.
