Despite her ongoing crush, Ruby is certain Niall barely knows she’s alive…until their flirty overnight flight makes him sit up and take notice.

Category Fiction > Romance Fiction > Short Story Fiction > Korean Fiction (Web Novel) Summary On Christmas Eve, DoYeon is drinking alone at her cousin's chicken pub. Suddenly, her cousin's friend, JungWoo, who left her nine years ago after hurting her, appears in front of her, but he doesn't recognize her because she looks so different. Not wanting to reveal her feelings to him, she gives him the wrong name, confuses him, and then leaves him alone. However, JungWoo feels a strange sense of familiarity with her and follows her. A crush from nine years ago, a broken heart, and the man who has suddenly reappeared. A woman who pushes and pulls as if she's about to reveal her true feelings to the man who doesn't recognize her. A short romance that tastes and smells like chocolate with a drop of rum. #contemporary #modernSetting #mistake #friendsToLover #firstLove #calmAndQuiet #healingHeart * This short story of Romance is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (61 pages in approx. print length) Preview "Let's not make it," She said. "Let's just live quietly for a decade and forget everything. About me, about that incident that was more trivial than the dust of that seventeen-year-old day... But just like the woodcutter in the fairy tale, who once upon a time told the lady the secret of the wings he had hidden from her when she had less than three children. I will meet him again by chance one day, a little less than a decade later, just nine years later. And when I will see him again, I couldn't help approaching him, despite having erased from my memory and my resolve to live quietly for ten years." *** "Huh! JungWoo, you just come and go to these places on a day like this. Now, I'm sure I'll live for a long time." "Well, I was just passing by and I think I heard that you opened a pub around here a while ago, so I deliberately stopped by to find it. I'm glad you're in the right place," JungWoo replied as he was greeted by his high school classmate, YongJoon as he entered the hall of a chicken pub packed with customers. "Unless it's a busy day like today, I'd like to talk about the old days all night while drinking so that my nose is crooked with you... What can I do? That's how I am..." YongJoon, who was in an apron eagerly serving the customers, made an apologetic look towards JungWoo, who must have come for him. "Okay. I'm busy too, but don't worry about me, just keep doing what you're doing. I heard a rumor that you opened a business, but I couldn't come because of the excuse that I didn't have time, and now I'm here. Now I know where your pub is and look at your face, so that's it. I'll come back next time when I have time, let's make it happen." "But I'm so sad if you just go like this. You sit down for a moment because you can see my handsome face, and I think you'll be at ease if you have a draft beer." YongJoon said as JungWoo stood at the busy entrance, trying to leave in the crowd of customers exiting the store. YongJoon grabbed the sleeve of his coat. "You don't even have a seat, but I'll definitely come back next time." JungWoo visited YongJoon on a busy day and replaced his apologies with an awkward smile because he seemed to be bothering him.

Beautiful Thing
Author: Sonia Faleiro
Publisher: Grove Atlantic
ISBN: 0802194729
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
“Both a tragic monument to the abused bar girls of Bombay and a celebration of their amazing resilience and spirit.”—William Dalrymple, bestselling author of The Anarchy Published in India to great acclaim and named a Time Out Subcontinental Book of the Year and an Observer Book of the Year, Beautiful Thing is a stunning piece of journalism that offers a rare firsthand glimpse into Bombay’s notorious sex industry. Sonia Faleiro was a reporter in search of a story when she met nineteen-year-old Leela, a charismatic exotic dancer with a story to tell. Leela introduced Sonia to the underworld of Bombay’s dance bars: a world of glamorous women; of fierce love, sex, and violence; of gangsters, police, prostitutes, and pimps. When an ambitious politician cashed in on a tide of false morality and had Bombay’s dance bars wiped out, Leela’s proud independence faced its greatest test. In a city where almost everyone is certain that someone, somewhere, is worse off than them, she fights to survive—and to win. In Beautiful Thing, Sonia Faleiro has crafted one of the most original works about India in years, an “intimate and valuable book of literary reportage . . . [that] will break your heart several times over” (The New York Times). “Reporting at its best.”—Junot Díaz, The Rumpus “A glimpse into a frightening subculture . . . In lesser hands, these young people could have come off as clichés, but the author makes sure we care for them and root for them to survive a life that most will never understand. Gritty, gripping, and often heartbreaking—an impressive piece of narrative nonfiction.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

The Secret Book of Frida Kahlo
Author: F. G. Haghenbeck
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1451632843
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
One of Mexico’s most celebrated new novelists, F. G. Haghenbeck offers a beautifully written reimagining of Frida Kahlo’s fascinating life and loves. When several notebooks were recently discovered among Frida Kahlo’s belongings at her home in Coyoacán, Mexico City, acclaimed Mexican novelist F. G. Haghenbeck was inspired to write this beautifully wrought fictional account of her life. Haghenbeck imagines that, after Frida nearly died when a streetcar’s iron handrail pierced her abdomen during a traffic accident, she received one of the notebooks as a gift from her lover Tina Modotti. Frida called the notebook “The Hierba Santa Book” (The Sacred Herbs Book) and filled it with memories, ideas, and recipes. Haghenbeck takes readers on a magical ride through Frida’s passionate life: her long and tumultuous relationship with Diego Rivera, the development of her art, her complex personality, her hunger for experience, and her ardent feminism. This stunning narrative also details her remarkable relationships with Georgia O’Keeffe, Leon Trotsky, Nelson Rockefeller, Ernest Hemingway, John Dos Passos, Henry Miller, and Salvador Dalí. Combining rich, luscious prose with recipes from “The Hierba Santa Book,” Haghenbeck tells the extraordinary story of a woman whose life was as stunning a creation as her art.
