Ava Lee is a fierce 28-year-old with a reputation as the go-to wedding planner for modern lovebirds. But when her grandmother, the legendary matchmaker Mei Lee, decides to retire, Ava is roped into managing her old-school matchmaking service as a favor. Skeptical about Mei’s “fate over algorithms” approach, Ava begins mixing modern tech (swipe-right dating apps) with Mei’s unconventional methods, leading to unexpected results—and disasters.

The real problem? Divorce lawyer Ryan Kim, who keeps sabotaging Ava’s matches under the guise of “saving people from heartbreak.” Forced to collaborate with Ryan to save a failing matchmaking project, Ava discovers there’s more to his cynical view of love—and to her own guarded heart.

Matchmaker Mayhem

The next morning, Ava arrived at the matchmaking event feeling surprisingly… good. The Pont des Arts challenge had been chaotic but fulfilling, and despite Mei's relentless teasing, the easy companionship with Ryan had settled into something warm and steady.

That should have been her first warning that something was about to go terribly wrong.

Because when things were going too well, it usually meant Julian was lurking in the shadows with a smirk and a plan.

Ava and Ryan stood at the grand entrance of the Hotel De L'Amour, where today's matchmaking event was taking place. The ballroom was elegant, with soft candlelight, fresh floral arrangements, and romantic jazz playing in the background. Couples-to-be were gathered at separate tables, eagerly waiting to meet their matches.
