Summary
Kim Yooyeon had everything—power, prestige, a corner office overlooking Seoul—and it was killing her.
After a catastrophic burnout, she flees her life as a top corporate lawyer to her late grandmother's neglected coffee estate on Jeju Island. She knows nothing about farming. Nothing about slow living. And nothing about the golden-haired woman next door.
Yoon Seoyeon runs the island's best café. She promised the old woman next door she'd look after the lost heiress. She expected a spoiled city princess. What she got was a woman shattered so completely, she can't hold a coffee mug without shaking.
It starts with a medical emergency. It continues with reluctant caretaking, bickering, and the slow realization that the grumpy Seoul elite might have a heart after all—and Seoyeon might be losing hers to it.
**A slow-burn f/f romance about burnout, healing, and finding home in the most unexpected place.

Summary
Lily Morrow is a bestselling author who makes every one of her readers believe, at least a little, in love. Ironically, she doesn't believe a single word of what she writes. She watches as her friends, one by one, get married and move on to the next chapter of their lives.
Only one person seems to be just as hopelessly single as she is: her irritating, arrogant neighbor and longtime rival, Oh Haewon. Even so, this woman somehow manages to make Lily feel inferior in every way.
Lily asked the universe for someone to love her, but instead she was given a pebble in her shoe, one that seems impossible to get rid of.

Summary
It's not a flashy job, paying only a few dollars above their state's offensively-low minimum wage, but it's easy, and usually unstressful; Most importantly, it provides her with all the free ice cream she could dream of. All in all, she can't complain. Except she can, and she does, because she's hot and bored.
The heat melting her brain is why she doesn't think much about the girl that approaches the concession stand, other than making a mental note of how tall she is. Long legs carry her to the front of the stand where she looks up at Seoyeon with eyes wide and mischievous in a way that reminds Seoyeon distinctly of the golden retriever her best friend Dahyun had growing up.
"Do you give discounts to pretty girls? You know, from one to another?"
or
Seoyeon's goals for summer break are simple: survive the heat, and earn some money along the way. Meeting Nien makes her plans a little less straightforward.

On a whim, she dialled the number, knowing deep down it was a dead line.
However, to Ryujin's shock, the line went through...and the voice on the other end was unmistakably hers.
