About this eBook

Jenny’s never had much time for boys, K-pop, or really anything besides her dream of being a professional cellist. But when she finds herself falling for a K-pop idol, she has to decide whether their love is worth the risk. A modern forbidden romance wrapped in the glamorous and exclusive world of K-pop, XOXO is perfect for fans of Jenny Han and Maurene Goo.

Jenny didn’t get to be an award-winning, classically trained cellist without choosing practice over fun. That is, until the night she meets Jaewoo. Mysterious, handsome, and just a little bit tormented, Jaewoo is exactly the kind of distraction Jenny would normally avoid. And yet, she finds herself pulled into spending an unforgettable evening wandering Los Angeles with him on the night before his flight home to South Korea.

With Jaewoo an ocean away, there’s no use in dreaming of what could have been. But when Jenny and her mother move to Seoul to take care of her ailing grandmother, who does she meet at the elite arts academy she’s just been accepted to? Jaewoo.

Finding the dreamy stranger who swept you off your feet in your homeroom is one thing, but Jaewoo isn’t just any student. Turns out, Jaewoo is a member of one of the biggest K-pop bands in the world. And like most K-pop idols, Jaewoo is strictly forbidden from dating anyone.

When a relationship means not only jeopardizing her place at her dream music school but also endangering everything Jaewoo’s worked for, Jenny has to decide once and for all just how much she’s willing to risk for love. XOXO is a new romance that proves chasing your dreams doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your heart, from acclaimed author Axie Oh.

Ratings and reviews

This book is totally Amazing !! It's so cute even though I am not into k-pop or something like this but I like this book, it is cute and I literally finished it in one day and half. The relation between Jenny and Jaweo is so sweet. While I was reading the book I was having alot of feeling like I want to laugh and cry and having butterflies,...etc. I really recommend this book especially if you are looking for romance books with no spice.

I always like reading reviews before I buy a book on here. There wasn't a review here but if you're like me then here's one for you. I just finished this book and I want to read it again.

Really enjoyed this book, the characters and the plot were nice and the book was well written. Loved the journey Xoxo took me on and I diffently recommend it to K-Pop lovers and bookworms alike.
