the plight of the white moonlights, stand-ins, and substitutes!

the plight of the white moonlights, stand-ins, and substitutes!
Some good ol' replacement lovers! May or may not be a result of misunderstandings, misidentification, or general tomfoolery (and some mental manipulation and other dark means). Not in any particular order. Genuinely surprised there weren't more on my reading list, though. **(only what I've read so far). 

A wide variety of crematorium/wife-chasing, entertainment, paycheques, and messy contractual situationships. Happy reading! Or not, lmao. Also, various occasions of the "white moonlight" actually turning out to be MC/ML themselves. Aka either massive comedic or angst value!

In alphabetical order.
