A Taste for Love

內容簡介

內容簡介 高中女孩Liza Yang在朋友眼中聰明、體貼、漂亮、近乎完美，有夢想，勇於迎接挑戰。不過，在媽媽眼中，尤其和姊姊比較起來，Liza固執、叛逆、反抗、挑戰傳統價值—特別是對於異性交友這件事，身為亞裔，媽媽最希望她交往的對象是亞洲人，但Liza可不這麼想。雖然常常意見相左，媽媽和Liza卻共同熱愛烘培。媽媽在大學附近開了一家烘培坊，並且舉辦比賽，吸引各方好手。為了證明能力，Liza答應支援活動。第一天抵達賽場，Liza發現參加者都是美籍亞洲人。為什麼只有亞洲人呢？在參賽者中，Liza注意到一位不輕言放棄、有時有點煩人的James Wong。儘管理智上想遠離他，在情感上卻得經無法抗拒，Liza心想，料理充滿各種嘗試，各種可能，或許愛情也是。 For fans of Jenny Han, Jane Austen, and The Great British Baking Show, A Taste for Love, is a delicious rom com about first love, familial expectations, and making the perfect bao. To her friends, high school senior Liza Yang is nearly perfect. Smart, kind, and pretty, she dreams big and never shies away from a challenge. But to her mom, Liza is anything but. Compared to her older sister Jeannie, Liza is stubborn, rebellious, and worst of all, determined to push back against all of Mrs. Yang's traditional values, especially when it comes to dating. The one thing mother and daughter do agree on is their love of baking. Mrs. Yang is the owner of Houston's popular Yin & Yang Bakery. With college just around the corner, Liza agrees to help out at the bakery's annual junior competition to prove to her mom that she's more than her rebellious tendencies once and for all. But when Liza arrives on the first day of the bake-off, she realizes there's a catch: all of the contestants are young Asian American men her mother has handpicked for Liza to date. The bachelorette situation Liza has found herself in is made even worse when she happens to be grudgingly attracted to one of the contestants; the stoic, impenetrable, annoyingly hot James Wong. As she battles against her feelings for James, and for her mother's approval, Liza begins to realize there's no tried and true recipe for love.
