if the words don't add up it only means one thing ... the truth is not part of the equation

Kumusta ang mga puso ninyo? We are all still emotionally reeling from the events of the past weekend, but the ADNBookClubbers do not want you all to be stressed.

when you choose not to hurt someone..... you're choosing to bear all the pain..... when you choose to take all the pain..... you're choosing to die everyday.... when you choose to die everyday..... you get to see that someone live.....

There's a saying that goes, "opposites attract". Two different people sometimes compliment each other to make a relationship work, but in some cases, these differences drive two people apart. RJ and Maine must find a middle ground. Unfortunately, circumstances have put them on opposite ends of the stick with opposing view about life. With their contrasting outlooks in life, will they learn to meet eye-to-eye to save their non-existent relationship? Or will they run out of chances before they learn to acknowledge the budding romance between them? 12/13/16 - 05/31/17

Fate sure knows how to play tricks. RJ is one of the people who go about their days without actually living. For him, he had no other reason to live other than to give his family a good life. Maine walked in his life and effortlessly lit up his world, making him smile and laugh genuinely. He couldn't be happier, until she unintentionally turned his world upside down again. Will RJ take a chance in a love story with Maine, the person who gave him reasons to live and the same person who will make him want to give up? Is he strong enough to stay in a relationship where there are countless uncertainties? 10/22/16 - 11/27/16

An artist with a deranged past meets the Spoiled Rotten Heiress that is forced to work with him at the Amorsolo Mansion. Richard hates the world and Maine reminds him of his rebellious and dark days during his youth. Will these two dark and twisted characters be able to see eye to eye? Step into the Amorsolo Mansion to find out... From the Demure and Innocent Group - The Artist and the Heiress

This is a story of how two very different people can fall in love and how love can change them. How love can start with a friendship and blossom into something for keeps. How they deal with life and how important friendship is. I think this is how a love story should be, simply learning to love each other more every day. Each chapter may be common or simple but I make sure that they can make you smile and feel the kilig and love. Thanks for those who has read this. Your comments are welcome, would be nice to read what you guys think, any comment would be an inspiration. Thank you for your time.
