Could it be possible to charm her ex back in her life, escape from murder charges, and pull off such a stunning wedding in just one weekend? However things go from inconvenient to absolutely torturous when Maddy’s big college love, and largest heartbreak, makes a surprise appearance amid all this wedding chaos. It is the largest job to date for the family wedding business: “Don’t leave your big day to chance, leave it to the Chans!” And there is absolutely nothing, not even some unsavory corpse, is going to get in the way of her aunt’s perfect buttercream flowers.
Unfortunately, a corpse proves to be much more of a challenge to get rid of than one may anticipate, particularly when it’s inadvertently shipped off to some cake cooler to the over-the-top billionaire wedding that Meddy, her Ma, and aunties are working at an island resort on the California coastline. Meddelin Chan winds up accidentally killing her blind date, her meddlesome mom calls for her even more meddlesome aunts to help her dispose of the body. What happens when you mix an accidental murder with two thousand wedding guests, and then throw in a potential curse on three generations of an immigrant Chinese-Indonesian family? You get four meddling Asian aunties coming to the rescue!
“Dial A for Aunties” is the first novel in the “Aunties” series and was released in 2021. But it’s also because she’s learned how to write pretty fast, so she writes 2,000 words each weekday, and that amounts to quite a few words over time. Jesse is able to write so much because of caffeine, lack of hobbies, and lack of a social life. She regularly does giveaways where she will critique queries or the first few pages, and she is particularly interested in helping out writers from marginalized communities. Jesse is passionate about diversity in publishing and women’s rights. When she is not busy ripping her hair out over her current WIP, she spends time playing FPS games and baking.
She lives in Jakarata on the same street as her parents and about seven hundred meddlesome aunties. She was fortunate enough to do her Masters in Creative Writing at the University of Oxford, which is definitely one of the most beautiful places in the entire world. Sutanto grew up shuttling back and forth between Singapore and Jakarta and considers both places to be her homes.
