Hana Yoon has survived a world war, four recessions, and the Macarena. She's gotten very good at not wanting things — it's safer that way. Then K-pop happened, and for the first time in eight decades, she wants something so badly it scares her.
When she books a flight to Seoul and auditions for Starlight Entertainment on impulse, she doesn't expect to get in. She doesn't expect the dormitory full of girls who trust too easily. She doesn't expect Park Joon, who holds elevator doors without making it a performance and notices things she'd rather he didn't.
And she definitely doesn't expect Director Shin to smile at her with too many teeth and I know exactly what you are.
Navigating eight-hour training days, a blood supply problem, and a best friend who keeps leaving snacks on her pillow, Hana tries to keep the one rule she's always lived don't get attached.
She's been breaking it since day one.
Trainee is the first book in the My K-Pop Vampire series — a dark, funny, emotionally devastating YA romance about an eighty-year-old vampire who finally wants one thing to be completely hers.
