XOXO Paperback

XOXO by Axie Oh is a delightful and swoon-worthy young adult romance that sweeps readers into the glamorous, yet often secretive, world of K-pop. The story centers on Jenny, a talented cello prodigy with her sights set on a prestigious music conservatory, whose life takes an unexpected turn when she has a spontaneous, unforgettable night with the charming Jaewoo in her uncle's Los Angeles karaoke bar. Their connection is undeniable, but he disappears without a trace. Three months later, Jenny finds herself in Seoul, South Korea, enrolled in an elite arts academy, only to discover that Jaewoo is not just a fellow student, but a member of one of the biggest K-pop boy bands in the world—and strictly forbidden from dating. As their paths intertwine, Jenny must decide if risking her dreams and his career is worth the exhilarating, forbidden love they share, in a book that feels like a K-drama come to life, exploring themes of passion, sacrifice, and chasing your true desires.
