With their worlds crumbling and their futures more uncertain than ever, two teens with a bittersweet past strive to have a happy ending - together. *** It's a shock to the whole world when Cha Eun-sang turns down the offer of marrying Jeguk Group's heir and all time heart-throb, Kim Tan, for some measly aspirations. But she's not really free, with her now fuming ex riding on her coattails and the entire Jeguk High hot on her heels. Choi Young-do has not stopped drowning: his dad is still behind bars, his mom has abandoned him yet again, and Zeus Hotel Group is one report away from bankrupcy. But these problems take a backseat upon the news of Kim Tan's breakdown on national television. He's least concerned about his long-time nemesis, but not so for his ex. After all, Young-do still hasn't given up on Eun-sang, his first and only love.Maybe it's the right time to get closer...***This ONC entry takes place the fall after the hit Korean Drama, The Heirs/The Inheritors [왕관을 쓰려는 자, 그 무게를 견뎌라 - 상속자들], ended (November 2014 to be exact). The protagonists are high school seniors, aged 18 (19 if you take the Korean ages).But don't worry. You don't have to watch the show. This book can be read as a standalone :)…

|| Summer of 1985 || Anthony and Thomas Banks, brothers with scarce in common, must set aside their differences when a corpse is discovered in their new home; in order to not fall back into the clutches of their evil guardian. +++12-year-old Anthony Banks is everything his brother is not. Short. Plain. Timid. And not a single ounce of superpowers. However, he's elated when they move in to the home of his dreams this summer: no more bullies and fiery nuns. And no more evil Diselhock.Well, until he finds a corpse embedded in the living room wall. Wrapped in dark, slimy ivy.16-year-old Thomas Banks has not yet gotten over the arson that had killed his parents five years ago. Not when their guardian Keith Diselhock's been hanging it over his head like the sword of Damocles. But not anymore, at least. He's managed to secure a deal; all they have to do is not cause trouble. Piece of cake, right?With the ghastly corpse in their new home, reemerging friends & foes, and a sinister ice cream truck that keeps the neighbors out of sight, will Tony and Tom live peacefully in this "pristine" neighborhood?Rating: PG (13+)AMBYS 2023 WINNER (SCI-FI) || Featured on many RLs, including @Action's Superheroes RL XD…
