Summary
A big, broad-shouldered man came through the door, the look of a long-haul trucker hanging around him like a ratty coat. He was wearing old oil-stained jeans and a frayed flannel shirt thrown over a white t-shirt, his scuffed boots peeling up at the toes with age.
He had the air of a man who’d reached the end of his rope. He had a battered wide-brimmed hat pulled low to cover his long, frazzled hair, half of which was scraped back into a loose tail. He had dark hair and dark skin and dark eyes that were framed by the deep-set bruises Arthur only ever saw on long-haulers and cattlemen, the marks of too many nights at the wheel or in the saddle, the normal rhythms of life stretched out and pulling at the seams.
The feller was handsome. Arthur noticed that as an afterthought, his breath catching in his chest. Under the bruises and the loose strands of hair, the feller was handsome. His eyes were bright and keen.
“Uh,” said Arthur, caught flat-footed by the unanticipated surge of attraction tightening his belly. “Hi.”
The feller looked Arthur dead in the eye. “I need all of the caramel sauce that you have,” he said.
(or, a coffee shop au. yeah. i know.)

Summary
Arthur let himself soften, turned to keep his eyes on the fire that glowed warm against the biting cold of the morning. “I know,” He said. “Things ain’t good for us right now, but… it ain’t safe. You know what the O’Driscolls are like, for folk like me.”
“I’ve watched you kill, Arthur,” Said Pearson, and there was a flicker of that old fear deep in his eyes, never quite gone away. The smartest part of him still that blustering navy man taking command of the cooking to hide how terrified he was of them. Fear that was faint, but still sour, on the still air. “I’ve seen what you do to idiots who pick fights with us. You werewolves aren’t that fragile.”
“We ain’t that strong, neither,” Arthur told him.
The Pinkertons have been lost in the snow, and the law has bigger game on its mind. The O'Driscolls aren't as easy to lose.

Summary
Spending three months in Small Pine wasn’t what Wooyoung had in mind for his last summer before senior year. Being that he was either too old or too young to hang out with the family they had gone to visit, Wooyoung found that he was just as lonely in that hot, stinky cabin as he was back home in the middle of the city. As if by fate, he runs into an especially friendly and devastatingly kind bronc rider at an annual summer festival and rodeo. It turns out they were both in desperate need of a friend, but their acceptance of each other slowly pushes the limits of a simple friendship.
Or
Wooyoung is visiting a small town to see family. San is a cute, little, small-town boy he meets at a rodeo. They have adventures.

Summary
Following the events of I'll Just Hold On
Years after their love-drunk summer romance, Wooyoung and San are reunited in a snow-covered Small Pine. Having lost his interest in the failure-ridden grip of his university-made adulthood, Wooyoung will stop at nothing to earn his place alongside San and a life on the farm. But six years is plenty long enough to completely change a person. And small-minded cruelty has the power to take more than a few cheap shots. Now, Wooyoung is forced to decide if his love for San was nothing but a teenage fling, or if San is worth every new risk and sacrifice.

"It's just for one night," Yeosang says with a shrug, his voice light and teasing. "Besides, it's for charity. Are you really going to deprive at-risk youth of money just because you don't want to spend one evening with a stranger?"
Wooyoung narrows his eyes.
"Don't twist this on me."
Or
Wooyoung meets San at a charity event and he’s not exactly sure what it is, but there’s something interesting about the stranger who wins a night with him.

Summary
It starts as mere pleasure. An indulgence.
There’s nothing personal about it. That’s not the arrangement they have. That’s not anything he will ever allow. Gyeongseok is unapologetic. Confident, with a bite to him that makes her shudder, an angry heat that makes her ache. He’s exactly what she needs right now. It’s an agreement. A transaction. It’s uncomplicated. Up until it isn’t. He’s a closed book. An enigma, carefully contained. Until he isn’t.
Until she starts catching glimpses of the man outside the performance. Until she finds that he has walked through a hell of his own. That in his wake, he drags a shadow, unshakeable, and if he falters, if he wavers, it threatens to swallow him whole. And in his hands, clasped tight, so tight, shielded against the storm, he carries a weakened flame. Bright-eyed. His whole world. Only five years old.
And it’s none of Hyunju’s business. He makes that beyond clear. She is a pay-check. A means to an end. Who he is outside of their arrangement is none of her concern.
Her heart does not agree.

Summary
Gi-hun’s lips curled into a smirk, his gaze cold as he shook his head. “Fifteen years, and you’re still the same selfish bastard you were back then.”
Gi-hun thought his biggest challenge at his new job would be impressing clients—he didn’t expect to run into his ex from fifteen years ago… especially not as the CEO. Now he’s stuck navigating awkward reunions, old sparks, and the small matter of working under the guy who still knows how to get under his skin.

Summary
"You take risks without thinking," In-ho mused as he watched Gi-hun's fingers tighten around his last chip. "That's why you always lose."
"And yet, here I am. Still playing."
The faintest smirk curled around In-ho’s lips. "Because you don't know how to stop." He leaned in, voice quiet but dangerous. "Tell me, Gi-hun—what happens when there's nothing left to bet but yourself?"
Gi-hun is drowning in debt, In-ho is swimming in wealth as the owner of an exclusive high-stakes casino. Two worlds that should never collide—until one desperate gamble pulls Gi-hun into a life he has yet to understand.
But when the devil asks you to play, can you really afford to say no?
