The Backstreet story
Karah and Emilia, along with our other bloggers on 
BSBFangirls.com, Amber and Melly, were thinking of a way to celebrate the Backstreet Boys’ 30th anniversary. We came up with a plan, but then something happened – Emilia and I were approached to write a book celebrating the Backstreet Boys’ 30th anniversary.
Both Emilia and I have long backgrounds in the online Backstreet Boys fandom, from owning websites and blogs to writing fan fiction back in late ’90s. With our knowledge of the Backstreet Boys and the fandom, we took this project on and poured our passion for the group into it.
