Together with her cousin Charlie, they run V&C K-BEAUTY, their school's most successful student-run enterprise. With each sale, Valerie gets closer to taking her beloved and adventurous halmeoni to her dream city, Paris. <p/>Enter the new kid in class, Wes Jung, who is determined to pursue music after graduation despite his parents' major disapproval. When his classmates clamor to buy the K-pop branded beauty products his mom gave him to "make new friends," he sees an opportunity--one that may be the key to help him pay for the music school tuition he knows his parents won't cover... <p/>What he doesn't realize, though, is that he is now V&C K-BEAUTY's biggest competitor. <p/>Stakes are high as Valerie and Wes try to outsell each other, make the most money, and take the throne for the best business in school--all while trying to resist the undeniable spark that's crackling between them. From hiring spies to all-or-nothing bets, the competition is much more than either of them bargained for. <p/>But one thing is clear: only one Korean business can come out on top.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An engaging, fast-paced romance between two teens longing for acceptance." <b><i>--Kirkus Reviews</i></b> <p/>"A great romance that depicts Asian American and international identities."<b>--<i>School Library Journal</i></b> <p/>"Page-turning fun...Readers who like their romances on the schemy side will be in for a treat."<b>--<i>Booklist </i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sarah Suk (pronounced like <i>soup</i> with a K) lives in Vancouver, Canada, where she writes stories and admires mountains.
