"A Forbidden Love and Other Stories" follows a man and woman with many differences through five short stories. A naval officer injured during Commodore Perry's expedition to Japan falls in love with a local medical assistant who is extremely conservative and against foreign interventions. She is the last person to have a relationship with foreigners, let alone a military officer. A Chinese spy who is a medical doctor and a biology doctorate student at UC Berkeley attempts to eradicate HIV infection from her home village. She employs the most advanced US biotechnology with the help of a Chinese American businessman, despite the Chinese government's regulation banning such a treatment. A small-town police chief meets a state police sergeant who tries to solve a thirty-year-old cold case with a recently received tip from a nursing home resident who has recaptured her old memory. A middle-aged single-mother nurse and a retired accountant find love between them during their trip to her hometown. A love that each once gave up in their lives. A state regional public health officer fights against coronavirus outbreaks despite her state's objection and achieves the best result in the country.

This collection of six short fiction stories ranges from historical tragedy and love triangles to AI technology and embezzlement.
