Oh wow this was cute.
We follow Linh and Bao. They come from families who hate each other. It's a feud that's been going on since before either one of them was born. Because of this, they spent a their entire early life avoiding each other. Until they stop, and shocking to no one, fall in love.
The story describes their love in a very sweet way, and Bao is a cinnamon roll and Linh is a firecracker and together their chemistry is fantastic. Together they both need to find a way to be in love with how their families deal with each other.
The book also touches on some family trauma that comes from immigrant families escaping a dangerous country.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book.
