What this book is about
Khai Diep's mother has gone to Vietnam to find him a bride—without his consent. Esme Tran arrives from Vietnam hoping to find a better life for herself and her daughter. Khai's autism-adjacent profile means he genuinely believes he doesn't feel love. The Bride Test is the companion to The Kiss Quotient, with the mother's perspective on Khai's situation adding complexity.
