Summary
"Two entrepreneurial Korean-American teens butt heads-and fall in love-while running competing Korean beauty businesses at their high school"--
Valerie Kwon and her cousin Charlie 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 grandmother to her dream city, Paris. Wes Jung, the new kid in class, is determined to pursue music after graduation. When his classmates clamor to buy the K-pop branded beauty products his mom gave him to make new friends, he sees an opportunity to pay for the music school tuition he knows his parents won't cover. As Valerie and Wes try to take the throne for the best business in school, the competition-- and attraction-- is much more than either of them bargained for. -- adapted from jacket
