Madelyn Chung is one of the best clinical psychology PhD students Harvard has ever seen - the most controversial, too. After discovering a data fraud conducted by Harvard's star faculty, Dr. Charlotte Shelby, her future career seems uncertain as whispers accuse her of being a burdensome whistleblower. With a potential groundbreaking research project in the line, she is appointed to work with Dr. Alex Manning, Harvard's young neuroscientist and professor who revolutionized several research in his field. A life-changing opportunity for Maddie - but she must deal with the fact that Alex was one of Charlotte's past collaborators, and his career was at stake because of the scandal. Maddie has always been careful when trudging through the endless hours of clinical shifts and research. But when she doesn't know if the longing stares from Alex every time he tries to make her life harder are an indication of hatred, or if they mean something else, she starts to feel unprepared. Because Maddie knows she is a falling star, and if she holds onto the fragile trust between her and Alex too tightly, she will only fall harder.

Formerly known as 'His Saving Grace' Welcome to Western Sydney. Not the safest, not the happiest and not the best place to live. Rivalries between the innerwest and greaterwest gangs. Organised riots and brawls happening every month was something normal. Break ins, vandalism, domestic violence, racism, was expected. The pacific islanders where judged harshly, some of them even had the community fearing them. The government was corrupted, and the police had no intentions of protecting their community. So in a world like this, love was something that was ignored. Stepped on, spat at. The word was abused so many times and it got to the point where barely anyone knew what true, genuine love is. No body fell in love anymore. Everyone was looking for a good time, no one was serious. Did people fight for what they love anymore? Did anyone want to graduate school anymore? Or was life one long party for most people? So this is the story of Kaea and Treymaine. Love? Or loss? Is it worth it? To take the risk and fall entirely. ____ The first book of the 'If I ' series.

~An anthology written for Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month '23, '24, and '25~ It's no surprise that my stories are all written from the heart. I've been thinking, though - home is where the heart lives. Maybe I should write about my home this time around. These stories, accompanied with notes about identity and diversity, intertwine into a possibility of how culture shapes who we are today. Embark on adventures or relish in the little moments in life, filled with Chinese history, culture, mythology, and more - tidbits from where I live and where my heart lies. Each story will acclaim and pay tribute to where I am and what made me, me.

Nancy Pang doesn't have a clue what love is. All she knows is that it's not going to help her win the Junior Mathematics Tournament, or get her into Harvard, or do anything except disrupt her college-prep life. Love is also not the solution to her brother's post-college problems, or her parents' constant fighting...(okay, maybe it is). And love certainly won't solve the issue of that annoying Alexander Lin who beats her in looks, popularity, AND intelligence. Unfortunately for Nancy, love is in the air whether she likes it or not.
