Allison Nguyen is a Vietnamese American girl who is desperate to fit in at high school even if that means rejecting her culture. When she gets into trouble at school, she is punished by having to work at her parents' phở restaurant.

Forced to work with her brooding fellow classmate and coworker, Luca Chen, she begins to learn about her culture and most of all, herself. Will she finally learn what it means to be Asian American? And is working at her parents' restaurant with a stone cold boy she thought she hated so bad after all? 

A story filled with lots of teenage angst and frustrations, but if you're looking for a story as steamy and heart-warming as phở, this story is for you!

The Art of Being Alone (Together) by CAITLlN

Delena is determined to have a good time at summer camp and forget about her backstabbing ex-best-friend Mei. But when Mei shows up at camp too, suddenly revenge looks a lot more appealing than forgetting. * * * * * As far as 17-year-old Delena Torres is concerned, friendship is nothing more than a quick way to get hurt. This has been her mindset for the past two months anyway, ever since her best friend Mei ditched her and started hanging out with her arch enemy. She's more than ready to spend summer vacation alone-- then her parents surprise her by signing her up for a photography course at Camp Create It, the summer camp she and Mei always dreamed of attending. Still, even if she has to be surrounded by other campers, Del's determined not to get attached to anyone. She'll spend the summer by herself, honing her photography skills and forgetting about Mei. Easy, right? Maybe, if it wasn't for the fact that her quirky cabin-mate seems deadset on becoming friends. Or if she could stop running into the cute guy from the kitchen staff. Oh, and if she wasn't in the middle of a prank war after one stupid attempt at revenge, since Mei just happened to show up at camp, too. Yeah, this "lone wolf" thing might be harder than she thought.

Ice cream, Teasing and Awkward Situations by miadaley17

However, that's kind of hard to do when you have a narcissistic arch-nemesis who's hell-bent on ruining your life. From the moment he laid eyes on her, he seemed to take an immediate dislike.
