'A heartwarming, sparkling romantic comedy Completely unputdownable!' Sandhya Menon, New York Times bestselling author of When Dimple Met Rishi
How many dates will it take to find The One?
Kim Jisu never expected her traditional South Korean parents to hire Seoul's premier matchmaker to find her a suitable boyfriend. She just wants to figure out her own dreams! But to please her parents she agrees to go on the dates. When she flubs a test and then skips out on a date to spend time with friends, her fed-up parents ship her off to a private school in San Francisco, where she can shine academically and, of course, be set up on more dates!
Just as she starts to feel comfortable in her new surroundings, attention from two very different boys sends Jisu into a tailspin of soul-searching. As she discovers her passion for photography, she begins to wonder if she even wants to find The One. And what if her One isn't parent and matchmaker approved?
