Seoul Mates Jerry Cole

Kevin Jung is Korean, but he's not that Korean. He's third generation Korean-American. Meaning, he grew up in an English speaking household in the whitest suburb of New Jersey playing basketball and eating almost exclusively Jewish and Italian food. He doesn't know anything about the strange and foreign land his grandmother comes from. However, he's in for a rude awakening. Kevin is given the opportunity of a lifetime. He signs on with one of South Korea's biggest entertainment companies as a K-pop trainee. He packs up his bags, says goodbye to his family and gets on a plane headed for Seoul. There, he learns very quickly that this musical venture is not going to be as easy as he thought it would be. Sad and isolated in a country he knows nothing about, Kevin feels like giving up. Then a handsome trainee named Li Minseok waltzes into the picture. Minseok just so happens to speak near-perfect English. Out of Kevin's desperation for companionship, blooms a sweet and genuine friendship that slowly morphs into more. However, when the band debuts and skyrockets to superstardom, Kevin and Minseok are forced to hide their relationship, while also navigating the impossibly demanding world of K-pop stardom. Will their forbidden romance hold up against immense societal pressure? Please Note: This book contains adult language and steamy adult activities, it is intended for 18+ Adults Only.
