For Luna Alondra Dawson, marriage is a word so simple but holds so much weight. Some people are scared of it, some don't care much about it, for some it's just a paper, while there are those that just use it as a form of agreement, and there are those that are like her who consider it a dream. The happily ever after. She has goals other than marriage. She made sure that she will check off every goal she has on her list. She made a name for herself. She was known for being the indomitable and tenacious Luna Alondra Dawson. Pero sa haba ng listahan na meron siya at sa dami niyang nalagyan ng marka sa listahan na iyon, iisa lang talaga ang nananatiling mailap sa kaniya. She persisted. She didn't gave up. Until he became hers. His ring on her finger, his name as hers. Going home and seeing their shoes neatly arranged side by side. His mug on the coffee table, his toothbrush next to her own, and their pillows on the bed they share. That should be it, right? But things aren't as they seem. Because they have a secret. A secret that she don't want anyone to uncover. Until it's the right time. Until she's ready to set it free.

Each day, she kneels, hands clasped, whispering her plea to the universe and to every god watching her, hoping for salvation in the form of a tall, handsome stranger. With less than a year until she's forced to marry a man she despises, Baby's obsession consumes her. Every sign, every omen tells her he's near, but when a fire traps her in its deadly heat, she nearly laughs at the irony. As smoke fills her lungs and her whispered prayer fades, a figure breaks through the flames--an enigmatic man named Arson who pulls her from death's grasp. But when she wakes, he's gone without a trace, leaving her haunted and desperate to find him again. And when she does, he turns her away, his indifference chilling her. But rejection only deepens Baby's obsession. Bound together by a web of secrets, missing people, and dangerous threats, Baby is determined to make Arson hers. Because for her, Arson is no mere savior--Arson is her twisted salvation. And Baby will stop at nothing to make him the key to her escape. ⟡ 𓆩♡𓆪 ⟡ TRIGGER WARNINGS AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Wounds heal, but scars remain. So even with the possibility that one can accept and move forward, it's impossible to forget. Because there will always be an irremovable mark that will remind you of every bit of pain. Growing up without a mother was Zarih's first heartache. It scarred her more than anything else. She sees how her dad grieves for her mom all the time-even after years-and it breaks her. When Zarih learned about the possibility that she might have inherited her mother's heart disease, she knew she couldn't afford to love because she wouldn't want anyone to suffer at her death. She wouldn't want to love someone just to wound him at the end. It was easy not to fall in love, only if Ace Timotheo Salvador, her summer enemy, didn't dare touch her scars... as if they were the most beautiful parts of her existence. Zarih feels like losing it... She wants to love and be loved. Maybe he can heal her scars. Maybe their story is different from her dad's. Maybe they can have a happy ending. Or maybe... She should've not risked it at all. Maybe she could've not scarred her heart more. Finished: July 21, 2022
