"Precision is a habit, not a salary requirement. If you can't manage a coffee run, how are you going to manage the Paris launch?"
Jennie Kim is the "Meticulous Queen" of Seoul's fashion industry. She's cold, calculated, and lives her life by a strict 24-hour schedule. She doesn't have time for mistakes, and she certainly doesn't have time for her new unpaid intern, Lalisa Manoban.
Lisa is everything Jennie isn't: a mess of charcoal-stained fingers, "unconventional" ideas, and a terrifying ability to tell the truth. She doesn't tremble when Jennie walks into a room; she challenges her. She doesn't just make coffee; she fixes multi-million dollar marketing decks while the milk is steaming.
When a high-stakes sabotage threatens the most important launch of Jennie's career, the CEO is forced to step out of her ivory tower and into Lisa's world of midnight drafting sessions and high-risk gambles.
Between the cutthroat garment districts of Seoul and the moonlit balconies of Paris, the line between "Boss" and "Partner" begins to blur. Because while Jennie knows how to build an empire, Lisa is the only one who knows how to make it breathe.
In a world of silk and steel, who wins: the woman who follows the rules, or the girl who knows how to break them gracefully?

Yours, and Only Yours (1st Book) Completed.
Jennie Kim is a no-nonsense, high-powered CEO of a luxury lifestyle brand. Known for her icy demeanor and impeccable standards, she runs her company with precision and commands respect from everyone around her. Her employees admire her brilliance but tiptoe around her temper-except for her newly hired personal assistant, Lisa Manoban. Lisa is everything Jennie's usual assistants aren't: she's casual, cheerful, and sometimes a little too comfortable breaking Jennie's strict rules. Initially, Jennie is annoyed by Lisa's unconventional approach, especially when Lisa insists on bringing her "relaxing tea" instead of coffee or suggesting ridiculous ideas during meetings just to "lighten the mood." Despite her exasperation, Jennie can't deny that Lisa is oddly efficient, always managing to get things done in her own chaotic way. As the days pass, Jennie starts to feel something she hasn't felt in years-she enjoys Lisa's company. But Jennie's growing possessiveness becomes evident when Lisa's charm attracts attention from coworkers and clients alike. Jennie finds herself in situations where she has to remind others-and herself-that Lisa is her assistant, and no one else has the right to monopolize her time.Complete

COMPROMISE (JENLISA)
#Completed "From today, learn to compromise with her. You guys are gonna be with each other." Jennie eyed blankly at the tall girl in front of her, who was nodding her head. She looked her dad who had a serious face. "What? What are you implementing dad?" She questioned. "Jennie, what I am saying is that for the upgrade of our business we have to compromise with the Manoban's. And this girl in front of you....." Her dad said looking both of them.

Home, At Last
Three years after ending the long-distance relationship that defined her college years. She had been the one to walk away, tired of living through a screen, tired of being glued to her phone for years while seeing Lisa only three times in person. She told herself she wanted a life she could actually touch, a world beyond notifications and late-night calls. Jennie logs into a Zoom interview for her dream position at a prestigious firm. She just isn't prepared to see Lisa on the screen. Not as her girlfriend. Not as the girl who once flew to Korea and begged her to stay. But as HR evaluates her future. Lisa is composed, distant, and strictly professional. She calls it a conflict of interest. Jennie calls it unfinished business. As old feelings resurface and unspoken regrets linger between formal emails and office hallways, Jennie realises the love she thought she left behind never truly faded. But for Lisa? Is it unfinished too, or simply a chapter she has already closed? 5/6/26 #1 in LisaComplete
