Lissie is the middle of three sisters, orphaned and taken in by their aunt and uncle. Both her older sister, Jenny, and she work in the family restaurant while they pursue their education and career dreams. When Lissie accidentally serves a dish containing shellfish paste to an allergic customer, she runs afoul of the wealthy Lin family. Their golden boy, Preston, a star swimmer and Stanford Ph. D. student, is as handsome as he is self-righteous. Lissie hates him and everything he stands for, but circumstances keep bringing them together. Can she overcome her pride and her initial misgivings about Preston Lin and his condescending mother? Will love prevail for these star-crossed lovers?"--Provided by publisher.
