Jackie Lau is a Canadian romance author known for her warm, funny contemporary romances featuring Chinese Canadian characters and families. Her books are set mostly in Toronto and surrounding areas, and she has a gift for building interconnected family series where siblings, cousins, and friends each get their own love story. Since her debut, she has published over 30 books across multiple series.
Lau’s series are built around close-knit families. The Holidays with the Wongs follows the Wong siblings as they find love around various holidays, from Thanksgiving to Chinese New Year. The Cider Bar Sisters centers on a family-owned cider bar and the sisters who run it. Her Weddings with the Moks series, which began in 2023, uses a countdown structure with titles like Four Weddings to Fall in Love and Three Reasons to Run.
Her standalone novels show her range within the rom-com genre. Time Loops & Meet Cutes (2025) plays with a sci-fi premise, while Love, Lies, and Cherry Pie (2024) takes a more traditional approach. Across all her work, Lau writes about food, family, and cultural identity with humor and specificity, making her one of the standout voices in Canadian romance.
