"Will leave readers swooning." PopSugar
"Utterly delicious." BuzzFeed
Two Vietnamese American teens fall in love amid their families' age-old feud around their competing neighboring restaurants in this funny, smart "star-crossed-lovers rom-com" (Kirkus Reviews) perfect for fans of Lynn Painter and Ann Liang.
Bao Nguyen sees himself as a rocksteady and strong but not particularly interesting. His grades are average, his social status unremarkable. He works at his parents' pho restaurant, and even there, he is his parents' fifth favorite employee. Not ideal.
Linh Mai is a firecracker. Stable when unlit, but full of potential for joy and fire. She loves art and dreams of pursuing a career in it. The only problem? Her parents rely on her in ways they're not willing to admit, including working practically full-time at her family's pho restaurant.
For years, the Mais and the Nguyens have been at odds, having owned competing neighboring pho restaurants. Bao and Linh, who've avoided each other for most of their lives, both suspect that the feud stems from feelings much deeper than friendly competition.
But then a chance encounter brings Linh and Bao in the same vicinitydespite their best effortsand sparks fly, leading them both to wonder what took so long for them to connect. But then, of course, they immediately remember.
Can Linh and Bao find love in the midst of feuding families and complicated histories?

I have to admit that I bought the book simply because I LOVED the cover so much. Since it´s a story about teenager I feel like the main audience might be around 14-15, but I still enjoyed reading it. The story is easy to read in general since all the topics are quite lighthearted. Some of the challenges in the book show thoughtfulness, but all in all it´s a cute and simple love story between two very similar teenagers. I didn't expect too much, since it´s a cover buy, but I'm pleasantly surprised about the story. If you're around the age of the protagonists you might enjoy the book even more. A nice read, overall.
