Summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken comes a standalone new adult romance set in the competitive world of K-pop.

It’s not all K-dramas and happily ever afters.

Intern with Korea’s number one record label? Yes, please.
Find out there’s a huge scandal I need to help “manage” … not so much.
Add in the fact that I don’t recognize the “superstars” of the label and think they’re interns …
And my dream job quickly becomes more of a nightmare.

But I’m in Seoul, the one place that is beginning to feel more and more like home …
Except it isn’t home, and the drama surrounding the biggest K-pop group in the world, SWT, is consuming my every moment.
Spoiler alert. They hate me.
Everything I do is wrong: wrong clothes, wrong honorifics, wrong manners.
Till the leader of SWT takes pity on me.
But pity is dangerous when it comes from someone as beautiful as him.

Every SWT member is gorgeous, perfect, and cultivated to be an idol … lethal to a girl’s heart.
And sanity.
But fame plus a perfect face and voice don’t equal an easy life. As their comeback nears, the stakes rise higher.
Suicide watch …
Angry fans …
Threats …

All I want to do is survive.
But the price for survival might mean losing my heart.
And like a character in a K-drama, I’m not sure if there will be an actual happily ever after …
Or simply a lesson learned.

I loved how realisitc it was to other kpop group. I am a masive kpop fan

I loved how it was from many perspectives and not just the main characters. I think it should have had abit of offside romance instead of just girl and the other guy

Good insight into the world of K-POP

I honestly had no idea just how much pressure, competition, sacrifice, dedication and hard work the world of K Pop was, not to mention the anxiety, stress and lack of money received until debts are paid. it was a really good insight into the culture and how the industry differs from other countries. this is an enemies to lovers slow burn with a very small amount of spice towards the end of the book. it was a welcome change from my usual genre and I really enjoyed the book and narration. the dynamic between the group and Grace was realistic with likable characters.
