Crazy Rich Asians (Authentic verified) by Kevin Kwan

"In Crazy Rich Asians, Rachel Chu, a New Yorker and professor at NYU, agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, expecting a modest family visit and time with the man she hopes to marry. What she doesn't know, however, is that Nick has left out a few very important details about his life. First, his childhood home is not just a house?it's a palace. Second, he grew up traveling in private planes more often than cars. And third, Nick happens to be one of the wealthiest and most eligible bachelors in Asia.

Rachel?s dream vacation quickly unravels when she lands in Singapore, where she finds herself thrust into the dazzling world of high society, where every move she makes is scrutinized. Suddenly, she becomes the target of jealousy, gossip, and social scheming. As Nick?s family and their old-money friends view Rachel as an outsider, she must navigate a labyrinth of tradition, status, and expectation?none of which were part of her original plan.

In this hilarious and heartwarming story, Rachel must decide if her relationship with Nick can survive the extravagant world he?s part of, or if the pressure of wealth and family will drive them apart. Crazy Rich Asians is a satirical, sharp, and endlessly entertaining look at love, wealth, and the lengths to which people will go to protect their social standing.
