    Summary

    It didn’t matter. His dad was back to sleep. And Kenny was one bass guitar short.

    He’d managed to get that guitar by pure miracle. Sold way too cheap at a garage sale, just fixable enough to warrant buying some materials. Was it perfect? No. Was it the only thing keeping him from bashing his head through a wall during the school week? Also yes. And now it was gone.

    Or, Kenny's dad sells his guitar, and with no way to outlet his stress, things build up fast.

    Summary

    Aria Ai-Hua Huang is everything the tabloids love to write about: the twenty-five-year-old Chinese-American heiress who runs her father’s luxury empire with flawless grace. With her sharp wit, striking beauty, and unapologetic confidence, she commands boardrooms as easily as she dazzles at galas. But beneath the glittering façade, Aria hides an ache she can’t shake. Every man she meets sees the heiress, not the woman. Every relationship has been shallow, transactional, and exhausting. She doesn’t want diamonds or adoration—she wants someone who can strip her down to her most vulnerable self and still choose to stay.

    Yoo Hyesung. Soft and the kind of hopeless romantic Aria has never taken seriously. A scholarship student from Seoul with his own scars, Hyesung isn’t dazzled by her wealth or reputation. He sees her in a way no one else does—messy, human. Their chemistry is undeniable. What begins as an indulgence for Aria becomes something deeper, something that terrifies her more than her father’s looming expectations: real love.

    Together, they must decide whether their differences make them combustible—or if the sin they’ve found in each other is the one thing they can’t live without…

    Summary

    After seven years of marriage, they let each other go.

    Then like some form of irony they end up going back to the same place they both called home.

    Because of a housing contract, they’re forced to keep living together; sleeping inches apart, pretending nothing lingers between them except habit.

    Mark tells himself Junior fell out of love first and learning to let go would heal him.

    The problem is… he’s starting to wonder if he misunderstood why they divorced in the first place.
