    Summary

    Her old dance instructor always said that if, while dancing in a group, their footfalls began to echo your heartbeat, it meant the connection went beyond choreography. It’s no longer just dance, it’s something more.

    God.

    Maybe Celine hadn’t been bullshitting her about that whole “Honmoon” thing after all.

    Summary

    There was something quietly, achingly beautiful about existing side by side, each lost in their own little worlds yet tethered together all the same.

    Rumi thought of it as she strummed softly on her guitar, every note falling into the gentle hush of the room.

    She wasn’t sure she’d ever known what peace truly felt like before but if she had to name it, she’d point to this moment. Right here.

    Summary

    Having her roommate’s girlfriend hit on her definitely wasn’t on Zoey’s 2025 bingo card.

    Getting kissed by said roommate a few hours later? Also not on the card.

    And ending the night smothered in kisses? Yeah, most certainly not on the card either.

    Summary

    Growing up, Zoey had never had good experiences with Alphas. So when Baby Saja invites her to the infamous Union Gala, she never expects to run into her Alpha, or to find herself suddenly entangled in an already established relationship.

    Mira and Rumi were struggling sexually in their relationship. Two Alphas, both strong-willed, it was difficult for either to fully satisfy the other. So when Celine coerces Rumi into attending her most dreaded event in the world, the Union Gala, she sees it as the perfect opportunity to find an Omega who could complete their dynamic.

    They get a lot more than they bargained for.

    Summary

    They are overworked first responders. After near fatal suicide attempts, Giyuu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho are forced into the EchoCheck Program. A last resort compliance system for high risk personnel.

    Each day begins and ends with a voice log. No therapy. No interaction. Just mandatory recordings and one assigned partner on the other end of the file. They’re not expected to connect. They’re just expected to survive.

    But somewhere between silence and confession, between grief and exhaustion, they start to care for each other.

    Summary

    No one expected Abigail, Sam, or Sebastian to get out. Not their parents. Not their neighbors. Not even themselves, some days.

    They were the town’s weirdos, the disappointments, the ones wasting their time on swords, songs, and screens. They were never the favorites. Never the golden kids. They were supposed to stay in Pelican forever, stuck behind the register, under someone else’s roof, apologizing for dreaming.

    But then came the letters. Zuzu University. Full rides. A second chance. And suddenly, everything started to unravel.

    So they do what they’ve always done: survive together. Build something with their own hands. Scheme. Dig. Fight. Love a little harder than they should.

    Because this town never wanted them to make it.

    So they’re going to make it anyway.

    Even if Zuzu City might break them first.
