Raised to be perfect, prim, and proper, Sabrina Tresvalles has always been in control of her emotions. But her annoying childhood friend and band drummer Pierre Cruz knows exactly how to push her buttons...and how to make her feel. *** Sabrina is the definition of a perfect daughter. Her every move is precise and calculated--she walks with her posture straight and her head high, never crying and never showing signs of weakness. Even her smiles are practiced, and Pierre, her complete opposite: charming, reckless, never afraid to show what he feels--hates that. He hates it so much that he bullies and teases her to no end to make her angry, to let out her real emotions. But when Sabrina begins to feel so much more for Pierre, it seems that the most sophisticated and classy woman would even drop to her knees on the ground for love.

Chronicles of Sta. Mesa Series #1 Do you have a skeleton in your closet? Something about yourself that you wish to keep a secret forever? Well, Olivienne Margarette Andrada does. Only her closest friends know that Olivienne is still hung up on her first love in high school. After her many attempts of trying to move on from their almost relationship, unfortunately, to date, she still finds herself stuck-unable to look at other guys. Sure, she had other crushes after him-but nowhere near what she had for him. She wasted many years inside a messed up limbo with that guy. But despite the many red flags, emotional grey zones, and countless blurred lines, deep inside, she knows that she still would have wanted to be in that limbo with him for as long as he was there. Rather than get out of it and live a life without him. But what if one day, this little secret of hers becomes known to the public? Because unbeknownst to her that while she was pouring all her heartaches to one of her friends, Danielle, she was secretly writing a story about them. Danielle, in her frustration with her friend's almost relationship, wrote a fictional novel on an online platform . . . where Olivienne and her first love could actually end up together. However, Danielle's first mistake was to think that none of her friends will know about this-not even Oli. But the joke's on her because unexpectedly, the story blew up. And now, people on social media are raving about it. The problem is . . . she used her friend's real name in this story. That was her second mistake. But it certainly wasn't the last.
