Book 2 of the Interim Goddess of Love trilogy: If you've been feeling neglected by the Goddess of Love lately, don't worry -- Hannah Maquiling, college sophomore, is in training to take over. The Original Goddess is missing, but Hannah is Interim Goddess now, and she should figure out how to solve humanity's love problems soon. Quin (God of the Sun) is still her mentor, still really hot, but apparently isn't as honest about his other earthly relationships as she thought. It's frustrating, and enough to make her check out possibilities with Diego (God of the Sea) and Robbie (Cute Human). In the meantime, she's decided to spend some of her precious training time helping to break up a relationship, instead of putting one together. Why? Because the girl in question happens to be her best friend Sol, whose boyfriend is stealing not just from her, but from other people on campus. Sol didn't exactly summon the Goddess, but this is what power over Love is for, right? Surely it's not just about matchmaking, but ending doomed relationships too. (Even when it's not what people want.)

Hannah is super nervous about her first year at Ford River College, but guess what makes it better? Becoming the new friend of a popular junior guy named Quin. This is a short story set in the world of the Interim Goddess of Love Series. (c) 2015

Ellie Manuel is a hopeless romantic, stuck in a cubicle all day. She's in her twenties and should be having more fun. But instead of doing what she really wants, like traveling wherever her Philippine passport can take her, she's hung up on the guy who dumped her for not being "ambitious enough." Someone should tell her that there are other cool guys -- who probably even eat at the same office cafeteria! -- who would encourage her just to be her fabulous self.

Book 3 of the Interim Goddess of Love trilogy: It's Hannah's turn to find romance! She deserves it, after serving as matchmaker and confidant (as interim Goddess of Love) to everyone else in Ford River College for the past year. Pining for Sun God/senior Quin is a lost cause. How hard can it be for a goddess to find someone to love, and be loved in return?

College sophomore Hannah Maquiling doesn't know why everyone tells her their love problems. She's never even had a boyfriend, but that doesn't stop people from spilling their guts to her, and asking for advice. So maybe it shouldn't be a surprise when the cutest guy in school tells her that she's going to have to take on this responsibility -- but for all humanity. The Goddess of Love has gone AWOL. It's a problem, because her job is to keep in check this world's obsession with love (and lack of it). The God of the Sun, for now an impossibly handsome senior at an exclusive college just outside of Metro Manila, thinks Hannah has what it takes to (temporarily) do the job. While she's learning to do this goddess thing, she practices on the love troubles of shy Kathy, who's got a secret admirer on campus. Hannah's mission, should she choose to accept it, is to make sure that he's not a creepy stalker and they find their happily ever after -- or at least something that'll last until next semester. (As if she could refuse! The Sun God asked so nicely. And he's so, well, hot.)

(U Series #1) Para kay Chino Alejandro, the best thing about life is its simplicity. Panatag ang loob niyang nakakakain ang pamilya nila tatlong beses sa isang araw. Kampante na siyang nakakasama ang mga kaibigan sa klase at computer games. At masaya na siyang mas nagiging close na sila ng all-time crush niya. Rose petals. Humiga sa kalsada. Skateboard. Maghintay ng himala. Beers. Pagka-intimidate sa chandeliers. Unexpected drunk tattoos. Ang Mabuting Salita ni Deus. Paintings. Prayer meeting sa loob ng elevator. Checkered polo shirts. Spoken words. . . at mag-YOLO. When lots of craziness, belief contradictions, and spontaneous adventures intertwine with uncensored words, not supposed to have feelings and out of hand emotions - life can get a lil bit out of hand for Chino. It's about time to get out from his comfort box to think, decide and act. FAST. Before that one particular girl gets trap in the box she wants to get out from. Life can never be just that simple and that's the best thing about it.

As if life wasn't hard enough being bullied and treated like garbage all the time; my loathsome, insufferable seat mate just had to come with his "secrets" and torture my every waking hour. What's the big deal you say? Nothing except for the fact that he's some insanely beautiful Greek God under those nerdy glasses. And now, he lives next door. I'm Sarah and this is my story.
