Psalm 121:7-8

결혼 4주년 기념일, 정루아는 남편에게 이혼을 통보한다. 남자의 얼굴이 차갑게 가라앉았고, 눈빛에는 이해할 수 없는 분노와 당혹감이 서려 있다. “고작 형수님 출산 지키느라 네 곁에 못 있어 줬다고 지금 이 난리야?” “그래!” 형이 죽고 바로 다음 날, 구태윤은 미망인이 된 형수를 돌보러 외국으로 떠났다. 그 이후 해외를 오가며 4년을 보냈다. 정루아가 그를 간절히 필요로 했던 순간, 언제나 형수와 조카가 우선순위였다. 사흘 전, 형수가 귀국하던 날 두 여자는 동시에 물에 빠졌다. 위기의 순간에도 그녀는 늘 뒷전이었다. 조카에게 손을 댔다는 오해를 받아 자갈길 위에서 무릎을 꿇었을 때조차 철저히 외면당했다. 8년 동안 단 한 번도 사랑을 의심하지 않았던 여자. 그러나 이제, 처음으로 자신의 마음을 내려놓기로 결심한다. “그만해.” 남자는 이혼 합의서를 갈기갈기 찢어버렸다. “형의 유일한 혈육이기 때문에 챙겨줬을 뿐이야. 앞으로 안 그러면 되잖아.” “다시 가져다줄게. 당신이 사인할 때까지 계속.” 남자의 눈에 서린 냉기가 경악으로 물들었다. 그는 번개 같은 속도로 정루아의 손목을 낚아챘다. “연애부터 결혼까지, 우리 8년을 함께했어. 진짜 이혼할 수 있어?” 정루아는 무덤덤하게 손을 빼내며 대답했다. “세상에 못 내려놓을 건 없어.” ... 지구가 네모나다는 사실을 믿을지언정 정루아의 이별은 받아들이지 않았던 구태윤. 함께한 8년. 정루아는 결혼 허락받기 위해 빗속에서 대문 앞에 무릎을 꿇기도 했고, 해외 연수 기회마저 포기했다. 사랑이라는 이름으로 모든 것을 내주었던 여자. 구태윤은 그녀가 절대 자신을 떠나지 않을 거라 확신했다. 그러나 이혼 신고서가 손에 쥐어지는 순간, 망치로 머리를 얻어맞은 기분이었다. 그날 이후, 자존심도 체면도 모두 버린 남자는 매일같이 그녀의 문 앞에 무릎을 꿇는다. “제발 문 좀 열어줘. 한 번만이라도 들어가게...”

Ember’s world shattered the moment she was ripped from her family—her mom, her brother—and sold to Alpha Thorne, the man who killed her father. Thrown into a harsh world full of pack politics and dangerous secrets, Ember’s only goal is to survive. But everything changes the day she meets Thorne. Their bond is electric, messy, and impossible to ignore, even if neither of them wants it. Alpha Thorne is tough and ruthless, but beneath all that is a man carrying his own scars and a fierce loyalty to his pack. Ember doesn’t trust him, and she sure as hell won’t bow to him. With rival Alphas scheming, betrayals waiting around every corner, and loved ones caught in the middle, Ember is forced to make a choice: protect the family she’s trying to rebuild, or give in to the one man she swore she’d never trust. Packed with loyalty, sacrifice, and a passion hotter than any war, this story is about survival, love, and finding where you truly belong—even when everything’s against you. And in the end, the biggest war Ember will face… is the one between love and revenge. *This book starts in first person, then shifts to third person from Chapter 7 on — opening up the world to reveal complex characters and their goals.

It has been 8 years but Hailey Greene was still haunted by her past. The past that she dreaded the most. It wasn't her intention to hurt Nick Smith, the love of her life but due to her family's debt she has no choice but to sacrifice everything even the love she had for him. Moving on, Hailey left without a word, bringing only good memories of them together. And who would've thought that leaving Nick will eventually lead her to a life that she never knew existed. A life of motherhood. And to that, she felt reborn. And years passed, she met an old friend, Mikan Grey, Nick's best friend. Mikan learned everything about her, even Annie as Nick's daughter. They would meet every now and then. Mikan always had this thing with Hailey but he knew that he couldn't replace Nick in her heart. He wanted to give Hailey and Annie a good life which led to a marriage proposal. Hailey would always shrug off the thought of Mikan's proposal but Mikan would always say that he just wanted Annie to have a good life and that its been three years since Hailey and Nick saw each other. And that's why here they are getting married not because she had moved on but because this is what's best for Annie. There's no better man than Mikan, she thought. But the idea of seeing Nick again after three years, gives her shivers. Will everything change if they meet again?

영화제 대상 수상자를 받은 그와 결혼한 지 8년째, 남편은 당당하게 여배우 강소예와 함께 공식 발표를 했다. 그와 그녀는 함께 입양한 ‘아이’의 생일을 축하하는 사진을 공개했다. 나는 평소처럼 전화를 걸어 따지지 않았다. 오히려 그가 참지 못하고 먼저 나에게 먼저 설명을 했다. “이건 우리가 함께 입양한 고양이야. 생일이니까 아빠인 내가 빠질 수 없잖아.” 나는 차분하게 말했다. “입양한 고양이이면 별로 의미 없잖아. 이혼 계약서에 서명하고, 걔랑 아이를 낳지 그래, 얼마나 좋아.”
