Vampire's Mate #1 Joshua is used to fending for himself. Working nonstop as an ER nurse to pay for his mother's care, he's been putting his own life on hold since he can remember. But when an unbelievably hot, strangely intense man saves him from a mugging, Joshua has a feeling everything is about to change. Especially when that man suddenly pops out a pair of fangs. Vampire Seokmin x ER Nurse Joshua

Seokmin never liked loose ends. He liked order. Rules. Control. But Joshua Hong? He came out of nowhere and left the same way. One minute he was there - all polite smiles, gentle voice, soft sweaters and blueberry muffins. The next, he was gone. No explanations. No notes. No fucking goodbye. And no one knew anything. Not where he went. Not where he stayed. Not why Seokmin couldn't stop thinking about him.He wasn't supposed to care. He was supposed to hate him - And then that one night - the fight. The truth. The way Joshua's eyes went cold. Where he acted like they were strangers. "You don't know a damn thing about me, Seokmin." He was right. Seokmin never did.Now all he had were questions - and a growing ache in his chest that felt too close to guilt- He was supposed to be the easy one. The soft one. The safe one. So why did it feel like Joshua was the most dangerous thing he'd ever touched?

#The Gilt Trip Trilogy Book 1: Crimes, Confessions, and a Hostage in my Basement Synopsis You've heard this story before. Some poor, soft-eyed civilian gets kidnapped by an unhinged mafia boss with trust issues and a six-pack. Yawn. But what happens when the civilian does the kidnapping instead? Hong Joshua is twenty-seven, painfully average, and a legal advisor who's barely qualified to negotiate his phone bill-let alone a hostage situation. And yet, somehow, he ends up with Lee Seokmin-the CEO of Corvex Group, the underworld's worst-kept secret and walking human crime syndicate-tied to a rusty chair in his basement. Joshua isn't quite sure how he got here. One minute, he's having a very delicious sandwich at a restaurant. The next, there's a bound and gagged mafia boss in his basement, tied to a chair that's older than his career. Oops. Now comes the real problem: what the hell do you do with a mafia kingpin in your basement? Feed him snacks? Call the cops? Negotiate like you actually have leverage? Try not to get murdered? Welcome to the world's worst kidnapping-no ransom, no escape plan, and absolutely no clue what happens next.
