NAOMI CHEN WRITES
Duty of Care
A burnt-out lawyer, a guarded doctor, and one neighbourhood full of complications collide in this smart, slow-burn contemporary romance.
Love was the last thing either of them expected to find next door.
Cassandra Koh is done with burnout, bad hours, and Big Law misery. Her Big Reset is all about calm days, fresh air, and helping out at her parents’ cosy bed-and-breakfast. It’s safe. Predictable. Exactly what she needs—until an intriguing, mysterious neighbour moves in across the street.
Dr Eric Tham wants peace, privacy, and a life free of complications. Instead, he bumps into Cass, who is sparkling, lively, and impossible to ignore. One misplaced parcel is all it takes to set off a cascade of chaos: an awkward gym encounter, an ill-fated blind date, stranded German tourists, and a burst water pipe with impeccable timing. With every mishap, their lives collide, and the sparks between them grow harder to deny.
As the neighbours turn friends, secrets start to surface. A brewing scandal ties Eric to Cass’s pharmaceutical job, while family complications threaten to pull them apart. With their lives increasingly entangled, Cass and Eric must decide whether the person next door is worth the risk of opening their hearts again.
Set in vibrant, multicultural Singapore, DUTY OF CARE is a warm, witty, emotionally rich story about awkward first impressions, reluctant neighbours, and falling for someone you never planned to meet.
The Law-Med Games is a rom-com series featuring sharp-witted lawyer heroines, charming doctor heroes, and interconnected love stories set in modern-day Singapore. Each book can be read as a standalone.
