The Chin-Williams series by Jackie Lau is a two-book contemporary romance set within a Chinese Canadian family. Both novels were published in 2018 and follow different members of the Chin-Williams clan as they navigate family pressure, cultural expectations, and unexpected romantic feelings.
Not Another Family Wedding opens the series with the kind of family event that tends to spark awkward questions about relationship status. He’s Not My Boyfriend continues the theme with a fake-relationship setup, where someone pretending not to be in a relationship has to keep up appearances around nosy relatives. Lau uses the family wedding backdrop to explore how romantic relationships develop under the watchful eyes of well-meaning but meddlesome relatives.
