Book excerpt: Whatever my plans were after graduating college, they didn't include managing a K-Pop group. They also didn't include falling in love with all of its members... After a father I never knew appeared in my life, claiming I was an heir to a Korean entertainment company, I was summoned to Seoul, given a job, and told to keep my identity a secret. The only person who knows who I am is my devil-spawn half-brother, and Sejin's doing his best to make sure I don't inherit any of it. With no help from the company, and no experience in the industry, I've got exactly three months to turn failed boy K-Pop group, H3RO, into number one stars. At first, I wanted to spite that devil-spawn. And then I met H3RO. Until now, Tae, Dante, Nate, Minhyuk, Kyun and Jun have been seen as nothing other than a commodity. Forgotten about and prevented from doing the one thing they've spent their lives training for: performing. The more time I spend with them, the more I can't help but save their broken dreams and get them back on the stage.
