About the Author
Lauren Kung Jessen is a mixed-race Chinese American writer with a fondness for witty, flirtatious dialogue and making meals with too many steps but lots of flavor. She is fascinated by myths and superstitions and how ideas, beliefs, traditions, and stories evolve over time. From attending culinary school to working in the world of Big Tech to writing love stories, Lauren cares about creating experiences that make people feel something. When she's not writing novels, she works as a content strategist and user experience writer. She also has a food and film blog, A Dash of Cinema, where she makes food inspired by movies and TV shows. She lives in Nashville with her husband (who she met thanks to fate--read: the algorithms of online dating), two cats, and dog.
Reviews
"I devoured this! Beautifully written, DEEPLY romantic, real, funny, heartfelt."
--Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author
"There's nothing I love in romance more than fated mates, and Lauren executes it beautifully in RED STRING THEORY! Her writing is as sparkling and smart as ever! Lauren delivers laughs, heart, and swoon all in one ridiculously fun story!" --Sarah Adams, New York Times bestselling author of Practice Makes Perfect
"A stunning romance that perfectly balances questions of fate with the art of true love. Lauren Kung Jessen's prose is immersive, engrossing, and dripping with romantic tension, bringing every page to life as readers root for her characters to get out of their own way and give in to their out-of-this-world chemistry. A delicious opposites attract romance with the most rewarding of slow-burns, this is an absolute must read!" --Mazey Eddings, author of The Plus One
"Jessen impresses with this surprising and sophisticated contemporary romance. It's unusually cerebral for a romance, marrying a believable love connection with a thoughtful meditation on how humans make meaning in life. The result is smart, sensitive, and striking."
--Publishers Weekly
"A lighthearted slow burn that's full of hope and heart. Delightful, inducing squeals and sighs in equal measure."

--Kirkus
"A sweet, joyful romance that celebrates the interconnectedness of fate and choice as two characters with opposing views on the subject learn to find a middle ground. Full of memorable characters and thoughtful dialogue, this one definitely left a smile on my face."--Jacqueline Firkins, author of Marlowe Banks, Redesigned
"A love story to Manhattan... Lauren Kung Jessen keeps getting better, and I can't wait to see what she delivers next!"

--Meredith Schorr, author of Someone Just Like You
