    Summary

    Yoon Jeonghan tried to make something of himself—a tiny vintage boutique in a quiet alley, all soft colors and handmade clothes.
    But dreams don’t pay rent.
    And the landlord? Kim Mingyu—young, rich, born to power, and completely out of reach.
    Then Jeonghan misses a payment.
    Then his little sister gets sick. Hospital bills eat everything.

    So Jeonghan, trembling, walks up to Mingyu’s luxury office and says:

    “Give me more time. Please. I’ll pay you back. Somehow. I’ll do anything.”

    Mingyu sets down his pen slowly.
    He smiles.
    But it doesn’t reach his eyes.

    “Anything, Jeonghan?”

    Summary

    Henry and Alex have been best friends since high school and maybe something more. (If either of them would actually do anything about it.) Enter Pez, who's had enough of watching his best mate pine.

    Armed with charm, chaos, and a foolproof plan he's dubbed Operation: Claremont-Diaz Collapse, Pez is determined to get Henry into Alex's bed. Four steps. Zero shame. What could possibly go wrong?

    "He doesn't flirt like that with anyone else," Pez went on. "He doesn't call me baby. He doesn't kiss my hair. He's not testing the water anymore-he's waist-deep, waiting for you to jump."
    Henry's hands curled into fists against his knees.
    "I don't know how."

    Pez didn't flinch. He smiled-slow and sharp, a cat with a canary. "Oh, sweet Hazza. Then buckle up.
    Class is in session."

    Summary

    Maya and Carina never imagined how deeply their lives would change when they opened their home to foster care. Fostered Hearts follows their heartfelt journey as they navigate the ups and downs of welcoming children into their lives, each with their own story, struggles, and needs. From joyful laughter to quiet heartbreak, every placement brings something new, and every child leaves behind a handprint on their hearts. Through it all, Maya and Carina grow, not just as foster parents, but as partners, as a team, and as the safe haven so many children have never known.

    This book will be regularly updated, with each section written as a stand-alone story focusing on the journey of a different foster child. While the chapters are connected through Maya and Carina’s experience, each can be read individually as its own short story of love, resilience, and healing. Warnings will be given where needed.

    Summary

    Nico never would have expected that one reckless night at university would give him the greatest gift of his life. Even if he could go back to that moment, he wouldn’t change a thing, but that didn’t erase the shadow of guilt that followed, nor the fear of betraying the trust of the one person his mind and body had always been drawn to.

    So when that very person walks back into his life, Nico finds himself torn between self-loathing and the aching need to finally tell the truth. Lewis is everything Nico remembered… and so much more. With new bonds forming and a new addition to his private little family, Nico faces the impossibly hard task of trying not to fall in love.

    But how can he resist, when he’s spent the last few years loving and raising a daughter who is purely, undeniably Lewis?

    So right now, she doesn’t care that her dress is now indecently riding up as her legs spread so she can straddle Jack’s lap. All she cares about is how Jack welcomes her immediately, his hands resting on her hips and his gaze burning into hers as she grasps his face in her hands, closes the gap and finally is able to kiss him with the vehemence of a woman starved.
