It won't take long to bring our hearts back to where we started.

Once a promising legal eagle, heartbroken and unemployed Emily Chung is sent to live with her no-nonsense Uncle Raymond, strange but passionate retired actress Aunt Bridget, talkative oddball cousin Daniel, and cunning feng-shui believer grandmother in Penang Island, Malaysia, after a devastating incident almost costs her her life. In a bid to help Emily move forward and pick herself back up, Emily's uncle offers her an internship at Serendipity Sanctuary, a non-profit community food centre for the underprivileged with close ties to the family.

What starts as butterflies in her stomach under the rambunctious pastry chef mentorship turns into a cool-headed environment when she meets Michael Kim, the solo traveller volunteering as a pay-it-forward. The encounter unfurls her past clandestine romance with former renowned K-Pop idol-turned-soloist Edward Ahn and the devastating heartbreak that led her to cast away a strictly confidential fairy-tale chapterβ€”and her desire to love again.

As Emily struggles to contend with her past and rebuild her present, she learns that to get a grip is to find courage and strength in spite of adversities; by replacing attitude with self-respectβ€”from coping with the bad faith of a long-time friend to a near-death experienceβ€”she realises the importance of family and unconditional love. But, will she be ennobled by Edward's unimaginable return? Or will she be swayed by Michael's warm heart and benevolence? Can Emily survive the sweet storm and learn to open up once more to what love and life have to offer?

Me In Your Melody by Deborah Wong is a heartfelt journey of redemption and self-discovery, exploring the complexities of love, family, and personal growth.

Recently, she self-published Autopsy of Sentiments, a personal and intimate confessional poetry chapbook about grief, unrequited love and kinship.
