A meet cute is supposed to be cute.

Ours was sexy. Chaotic. Not normal.

Less than 10 minutes after we met, I realized we could never be. She was forbidden to me.

She held my hand behind his back.

I gripped hers, knowing it was wrong.

I was on the cusp of superstardom—and still I held her fingertips because it felt right.

Knowing that when it all went wrong, we would be done—the media would destroy us.

After all, not only was she was four years older than me, she was the leader of SWT's sister—my best friend—and someone who could wreck everything we'd worked for.

But I still held on.

I'm lost. So lost.

I'm the youngest in the group, the one everyone sees as the most innocent.

But they don't know the stolen moments with her.

The kisses.

The touching.

They don't know any of that.

So I keep acting as if I’m pure as the driven snow when really all it took was one chance meeting.

To make.

Me.

Sin.

Hi, I'm Sookie, Maknae of SWT, the most famous K-pop group in the world.

And I'm pretty sure I'm not just lost… nah, I'm about to fall.

LOST IN SEOUL

WOW! After the first K-Pop book released by Rachel Van Dyken, I secretly hoped we would get another one and man I am so not disappointed!

Lost in Seoul is the story of the youngest member of SWT, Sookie and how he longs for a bit of normalcy. As the Makinae, a lot of pressure is put on him to be pure and innocent. Sure, it was one thing when he was an 11 year old trainee but now he’s a 20 year old young man and they still expect the same? 

You really feel the emotions in this story and how he longs to be able to date the one woman who has always been there for him, Ari. RVD translates the emotions onto the page so perfectly that you can’t help but to feel what Ari and Sookie are going through. 

Reading these books is truly an interesting and inspiring way to learn about the pressures that these young individuals are put under all in the name of fame and to get sales and ratings. I can’t imagine living the lives that these guys have had to live. 

Brilliantly written and would highly recommend it everyone, even if you don’t like K-Pop!
