A cute enemies-to-lovers story between former best friends.
Sometimes, it's those we love the most that can hurt us the worst. Korean American Hannah gets dumped by her boyfriend, Nate, for not being Korean enough. All things Korean culture are the craze at her American high school, but Hannah's always shoved that part of her aside. She's determined to win Nate back, even if it means she has to start watching K-dramas.
Her summer gets complicated when childhood best friend Jacob Kim comes to stay at her house. Three years ago, they argued and stopped speaking, and now he's the star of the hottest K-drama in the world. Romantic tension builds as feelings for Jacob get in the way of Hannah's win-back-Nate plan.
Jacob Kim is the perfect boyfriend - kind, thoughtful, and always thinking of others, even when his responsibilities threaten to tear him and Hannah apart - again. This book dives into all the responsibilities and pressure Korean teen stars face.
Hannah's a relatable heroine with a loving family who push her and Jacob together. Hannah's feelings for both Jacob and Nate ring true, as she puzzles out what they both mean to her. In addition to the romance, this book shows Hannah's struggles with what it really means to be Korean American, and how people obsessed with the culture can objectify and stereotype Korean people.
