In the neon-lit chaos of Jakarta's SCBD, Elliot Kane, a jaded 32-year-old debt negotiator, is suffocating under spreadsheets and unfulfilled dreams. Sent to Bandung to rescue Rasa Manis Bakery from a two-billion-rupiah debt, he meets Sari Wulandari, a fiery 29-year-old baker whose pandan-scented kue kering and fierce devotion to her mother's legacy challenge his pragmatic world. Their initial clash-over her chaotic finances and his blunt critiques-sparks tension, but flour-dusted baking lessons kindle a slow-burn romance, blending his British-Javanese roots with her Bandung heart.
As Elliot battles creditor Pak Budi to save Rasa Manis, he and Sari create a pandan-caramel kaastengel, a fusion of their worlds that becomes a Bandung sensation, drawing crowds to Braga Street's cozy glow. From American snickerdoodles to Moroccan ghriba, each cookie weaves a story of resilience, teaching them to trust and heal old wounds. But misunderstandings and fears-Sari's past betrayal, Elliot's corporate doubts-threaten to crumble their bond. When Elliot quits his Jakarta job, risking everything, they secure a Java-wide cafe deal, proving love and courage can rise like perfect dough.
Cookie Dough is a witty, heartfelt tale of reinvention and romance, set against Jakarta's bustling streets and Bandung's vibrant cafes. Perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and romantic comedies, this novel celebrates the messy, sweet journey of finding home in love and cookies. Will Elliot and Sari's global cookie tour dreams seal their future, or will the past burn their hopes? Dive in and savor the taste of love.
