(Hermosa Series #3) Everly and Reed were childhood best friends before they became a couple. Everything was perfect until their parents got in the way and decided to make it permanent. Or so they thought. There was only one thing Reed Luna regrets in his life, and that is making Everly's life a living hell when they were together, especially in college. So as they navigated their early twenties, he promised himself that he would make it up to her forever. He cleaned up his act and remained as one of her good friends. Everything is as it should be until he realizes that he's watching the love of his life walk down the aisle toward a different man. Everly is about to achieve her lifelong dream of being a wife to a really good man. Four years of dating and practicing her signature as Mrs. Everly Estrella-Enslie has brought her to this perfect moment until her ex-boyfriend ruins it for her. Now jilted at the altar by her supposed husband-to-be, Everly runs away from the horrified crowd only to run straight at the hands of the last guy she wants to be with.

The problem is, she's been given free rein on the sports column as the basketball varsity team's coach's daughter. She has no choice but to accept it even if being with the Green Knights is the last thing she wants to do. She hates the team her father coaches. For two reasons. One- is the relentless Jai Laurel who doesn't seem to know how to take 'no' for an answer. And two, is Arvid Ongpauco, the guy who cheered her up at her lowest and the same guy who humiliated her in front of the whole student body. He's also going to be her pretend-boyfriend for the whole season of UAAP. Yup. Rosie might be a nerd, but she never claimed to be smart. She's also tired of being a good girl all the time. It is so limiting... and if she's being honest, it's just so sad. So now, she's going to enjoy being someone's fake girlfriend and be bad for the first time in her life.

He is off-limits. He has always been off-limits to her. Too bad, she's never been good at following the rules. After her failed attempt at happiness, Sahara Israel is back at the place she vowed to never set foot in again. Leaving the life she built with her ex-husband in the city, she had no choice but to come back to Hermosa to hide and lick her wounds. It was the last place on earth she wanted to go, but she needed to be with her best friends as she navigated this new chapter in her life... even if it meant she might bump into the first boy who had broken her heart before beyond repair. Apollo Arcangel is Hermosa's most eligible bachelor and also the hometown's hermit. He has spent the last five years building back the family business his father left in ruins.

It's been years since he's seen her, but when Sahara drives into his land and back into his life, he realizes he still can't take his eyes off her. So Apollo takes it upon himself to help her get back on her feet, that way she can leave as quickly as she came. But first, he needs to know why she came back after being gone all these years without a trace. It's what he deserves after looking for her relentlessly. It's for his peace of mind... his closure. At least, that's what he keeps telling himself. As Sahara and Apollo learn to co-exist again, it's getting more difficult for them to separate old and new feelings for each other. Can he forgive her for leaving? Can she forget his betrayal? Or will they end up burning each other all over again? *** Updates every Friday. Also available on PATREON.
