Mei Lin, a whip-smart and fiercely independent Korean-American teenager, juggles the chaos of her family's bustling dumpling restaurant, "Kim's Corner," with the demands of high school. Her days are a whirlwind of textbooks, steaming mandu, and navigating the complexities of first-generation immigrant life.

But Mei craves more than the delicious, exhausting loop her life has become. A chance encounter with Alex, a silver-spooned boy from a world as different as kimchi is from caviar, sparks a yearning for something unexpected. As their paths collide across the cultural divide, Mei finds herself caught between the comfort of her familiar world and the allure of a life beyond the steam.

Can Mei bridge the gap between sizzling dumplings and five-star galas? Will she find a way to balance her family's legacy with her own dreams? And most importantly, can love blossom between a girl who fights with spatulas and a boy who lunches with CEOs?

Falling Up is a heart-warming, hilarious, and mouthwatering story about finding your voice, embracing your heritage, and discovering that love, like the perfect dumpling, can come in the most unexpected packages.

[@WATTPAD READING LIST - AMPLIFYING ASIAN & PACIFIC ISLANDER VOICES - MAY 2021] [@WATTPADASIANFICTION READING LIST - FROM ME TO YOU - FEBRUARY 2023] A mix of crazy, stupid, hormonal adults that are thrown into life with a sprinkle of swearing, a dash of witty humor, and a heaping cup of love from yours truly. ----- When Azar gets laid off from her position as a head pastry chef, in anticipation of the bakery's demolishment date, she finds herself with no other choice but to succumb to her mother's wishes: to be engaged to a man she's never met. Except what they don't know, is that the eligible suitor is already knee-deep in his own engagement, ready to be whisked off to another girl in a month. This requires East Han, the second eldest son, to call off the engagement with the Seo family. Determined to earn his parents' trust back, he agrees to follow through with this task. Up until he meets Azar herself, glowing in all her beauty and witty remarks that he knows he'll never get enough of. So other than not telling them the news, he does the one thing he wasn't planning on doing: he falls for her.
