Paper Vows [SkyNani]
They were never meant to be in love-just married. Sky is a calculated businessman, known for his silence and sharp edges. When a political alliance binds him to Nani-the bright, soft-spoken kindergarten teacher and youngest son of a powerful Thai-Chinese tycoon-it's a move to protect reputations, not hearts. But behind Nani's easy smile is a secret his family keeps buried: a rare heart condition slowly threatening his life. And behind Sky's emotionless exterior is a man who begins to care more than he should. In a house built on obligation and silence, two strangers navigate power, illness, and the quiet ache of growing too close. Some marriages start with love. Theirs starts with a contract. What grows in the silence might be something neither of them are ready for.Complete

Altitude Sickness [SkyNani]
When Top Gun × Descendants of the Sun --- When a hotshot fighter pilot with a dimple and a dangerous streak gets grounded for breaking protocol, the last place he expects to end up is under the supervision of the airbase's most annoyingly perfect medic. Captain Sky Wongravee lives for adrenaline, attention, and bending the rules-until he's forced to cool his engines under the watchful eye of Lieutenant Nani Hirunkit, the brilliant, beautiful, and emotionally constipated military doctor who can't stand him. They're oil and water. Flight risk and first aid. Enemies with matching rooms and unresolved tension. But when a border mission goes sideways, and they're thrown into chaos together-between triage tents, tactical drills, and stolen glances under fire-they'll have to decide what's more dangerous: the war around them... Or whatever's happening between them. Altitude: high. Patience: low. Tension: off the charts.Complete

WHERE WINTER BLOOMS
Sometimes, first love isn't a person. It's the first time someone truly sees you. Nathan sings in silence. No one knows he does. No one asks why he stopped shining. Ryan pretends he's fine. No one notices he's breaking inside. A paper plane connects them. An empty theater listens. And in the middle of the world's noise, two boys find in music a language more honest than words. But growing up hurts. Loving hurts more. And the fear of disappointing those who should protect you can be louder than any melody. This story is for those who've ever felt like they didn't belong. For those who carry invisible wounds and still dare to dream. For those who know that love doesn't always shout... sometimes, it just sings.
Ashes, Stitches & Bullet Wounds
Firefighter Riley Hartmann is the first to notice it-strange rescue calls with victims who all say the same thing before passing out: "Don't trust the shadows." ER doctor Elena Moretti sees a pattern too-patients arriving with identical injuries from unrelated accidents, all terrified of someone who doesn't appear on any record. Detective Jordan Blake, still haunted by a ruined military mission, is investigating a series of break-ins that leave no fingerprints and no clues. None of these cases make sense. None of them seem connected. But they are. And they're about to drag all three women into something far bigger than any of them can handle alone. They don't know each other yet. They don't even know the same danger is circling them. But by the time they finally cross paths, one truth will be impossible to ignore- Someone has been watching them. Someone wants them involved. And someone is willing to kill to keep the real secret buried. A poly romance wrapped in mystery, tension, and the kind of danger that brings three strangers together long before they're ready... and long after they can walk away.
