What’s love without a little matchmaking, a few recipes, and a second chance?

Lani Lai has always preferred to stay behind the scenes. A biochemistry major with a passion for preserving her family’s lunch bar, Lani’s world revolves around her studies and her tight-knit community. But balancing family, friends and academic success hasn’t come without cost—she’s inadvertently pushed people away, including the one person who mattered most.

Eric Liang is everything Lani is not—popular, confident, and infuriatingly charming. As a journalism student, he’s always the centre of attention, known for his quick wit and undeniable charisma. But there’s something about him no one knows: he’s the anonymous mastermind behind Dear Campus Cupid, a university-wide blog that’s quickly become a campus sensation. The blog sparks confessions, crushes and date requests, and students check it religiously, hungry for the next story.

And for a long time now, Eric has been writing love letters to Lani—some of which he’s never sent. When their paths cross again at Riverside University, Eric has a secret agenda: a proposal for a collaboration in the prestigious Lewis-Li Prize competition. Lani assumes it’s all about the prize and the prestige, but Eric’s real plan is far more personal—he’s not just after the win, he’s after a second chance with her.

As they navigate the tricky world of traditional cuisine, journalism, and social media, sparks fly. But with secrets still lurking and the weight of their past hanging between them, can they find their way back to each other? Or will the truth behind Dear Campus Cupid be too much to unravel?
