Summary
Matthew Bernard takes a job at Reverend Owens’ barn for the season, the type of work that wears a cowboy down to the bone. He’s the only hand hired, long days, quiet nights, nothing but dust, sweat, and the horses to keep him company.
But Christopher Owens, the pastor's son, and a quiet church boy, has a way of slipping past the fences Matt keeps around himself. Soft where Matt is heavy, gentle in a world that demands authority, he unsettles something Matthew thought he’d buried deep.
Want is a dangerous word in the South, especially when it stares back at you with kindness you don't think you deserve.
Some things can’t be spoken. Some things can’t be prayed away. And some things take root, no matter how hard you try to cut them down.

Summary
It’s fine. This is all fine. Yang Jungwon isn’t hurt, not even a little bit. This. Is. Fine.
He and his ex-boyfriend got out of a six month relationship just a few months ago and it seems like his ex has already moved on. And that’s perfectly okay, Jungwon thinks to himself. It just happens to be with one of their closest friends, but that’s okay.
Park Jongseong is a homie-hopper and that’s okay.

Summary
Jungwon is—
He's a lot. A lot more than Jay could have ever predicted when Jungwon stepped into his house that first time—more astute and unpredictable, vivid and lovely. He's been noticing it recently, just how lovely Jungwon is, but he doesn't know how to connect all the discrete hints to form a picture he wants to see.
(Or: The summer before he goes off to college, Jay falls in love for the first time)

Summary
Jay is the first to admit that if you're basing everything off of physical appearance, he doesn't look like someone who should be working at Build a Bear. However, that being said, he’s fantastic at his job. He loves his job as a whole, but, just as with any job, there's things that Jay has to do that he'd rather not. These things included having to hand sew the animals if the strings come out or they have holes, having to unstuff display animals to go back in the bins, and most of all, having to be a party leader.
Until a cute daycare worker comes in with a bunch of cute kids for a party, that is.
Or; Jay works at Build A Bear, Jungwon is the cute daycare worker that brings the kids for a party.
