#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.

BOOK #2 They say love heals scars, but Seokmin's scars were lessons-bitter reminders that twisted him into a creature of darkness. His life was a series of brutal lessons that shaped him into someone who burns with an unquenchable fire. Protecting his brother-in-law's assistant was both his best and worst decision, a choice that bound him to Joshua in ways he could never escape. Joshua was his-body, mind, and soul. His to break, reshape, and claim. No one could alter that, not Joshua, not even Seokmin himself. Seokmin's voice was low, his breath hot against Joshua's skin as he spoke, "I've never craved anyone as much as I crave you." Joshua's eyes were wet with fear as he tried to pull away. "You don't love me. You're just obsessed. Let me go." Seokmin's grip tightened as he leaned in, pressing his lips to Joshua's in a kiss both tender and demanding. "I'll let you go," he whispered against Joshua's lips, "but only when my soul is ripped from this body. And even then, who knows? Maybe we're bound beyond this life."

Chaos and destruction. Two things Lee Seokmin despised more than anything. He thrived on control, on order, on things falling exactly into place. But everything unraveled the moment he laid eyes on him-his new husband. The brother of the man who was supposed to marry him. Joshua. "I know you hate pineapple, so I made sure to eat a lot. Imagine if we kissed right now... You might die," Joshua's voice was sweet, but the mischief in his eyes was undeniable as he leaned closer, his smirk dangerous. Seokmin's jaw tightened. No one could hear them, not their bickering, not their hate, and most importantly, not the way Seokmin's dead heart seemed to stir back to life. He hated chaos, but Joshua was chaos. And now, he was stuck with him. How was he supposed to navigate a life of perfect control with a husband who thrived on disorder? Would they ruin each other? Or was falling together inevitable?

Book 1 of the Lost & Found series In a world that no longer welcomes packs, it's all Seokmin can do to hold his team together. Four alphas without omegas is a recipe for disaster. And now that they're civilians, with the military watching their every move, it's not going to be easy to keep the truth about their pack hidden. Seokmin's most pressing problem is his buddy Duke's stolen son. Everywhere he turns for help is a dead end, until chance introduces him to Joshua, the capable, captivating omega-and legal advocate. Seokmin's luck might finally be turning around. But can he trust Joshua with more than just their legal troubles-can he trust him with his secrets? Joshua has everything he could want in life-a successful career, the respect of his peers, an apartment in the city. But not an alpha. Been there, done that. No shifter he's dated could handle the fact that, some days, Joshua's job comes first. When the death of his estranged parents takes him back to his childhood home, he meets Seokmin-the handsome, troubled doctor who just might be the exception to the rule...

**Crimson Obsession** Obsession cuts deeper than any knife-and some scars never fade. He watches him like a shadow. And Seokmin never looks back. **Joshua Hong** smokes in alleyways, runs fingers over blood-stained case files, and smiles when someone mentions the name **Lee Seokmin**. "You think he's a monster?"* he whispers, lips curled. "Monsters don't make me feel like this." Across the city, **Seokmin** moves like smoke-cold, elegant, and brutal. He doesn't remember faces. He doesn't leave loose ends. But lately, someone's always there. Watching. Closer than breath. *"Someone's following you."* *"Then let them die trying."* Two men. One doesn't know he's being hunted. The other doesn't know he's already been touched. And in the quiet between violence and memory- something dark is beginning to ache. Crimson Obsession: You don't fall in love with a Monster. You bleed for him, Beautifully.

Lee Seokmin was 24, an omega registered as a beta, and the head of Strategic Finance in a company run by alphas who never questioned what didn't concern them. He made sure of that. Every morning started with a suppressant. Every medical record said "beta." He worked harder, stayed later, never gave anyone a reason to look closer. It wasn't safety-it was survival. And then there was Joshua Hong. The CEO. An alpha who noticed things others didn't. He never said a word, but Seokmin had seen it-the way his eyes lingered that day Seokmin's scent slipped past the suppressant. Just once. Joshua didn't say anything. He just watched. And Seokmin kept working like nothing happened. But secrets don't last forever. Now the company knows. The lie has cracked. And the only thing louder than the scent he no longer hides is the silence that follows him through every hallway. Still, Seokmin walks tall. Omega or not, he's earned every step.
