Genre: WLW / Dark Romance / Suspense [ STORY DESCRIPTION ] Lirael Eunoia always lived her life by the book. She's the literal definition of "good girl". Pure, principled, and kind. Pero lahat ng 'yon ay nagulo simula nung pumasok sa buhay niya si Calista Luna. Calista is like a dream. She's sophisticated, mesmerizing, and has this pull na hindi kayang iwasan ni Lirael. Pero sa likod ng mga malamig na titig at eleganteng galaw ni Calista, may itinatago siyang madilim na hobby. She doesn't just break hearts; she stops them from beating. Nung aksidenteng nalaman ni Lirael ang totoo, na ang babaeng mahal niya ay ang "monster" na laman ng bawat news headlines. Dapat sana ay natakot siya. She should have ran as fast as she could. Pero imbis na isumbong si Calista, Lirael found herself doing the unthinkable. She's starting to hide the evidence. She's starting to lie to her own mother. Lirael is slowly bending every moral she has just to protect Calista. It's a toxic, obsessive love where the line between the victim and the accomplice is starting to blur. Lirael knows she's playing with fire. Alam niyang sa bawat pagyakap niya kay Calista, she's losing a part of her soul. And the most terrifying part? She's okay with it. Kahit pa alam niya na sa dulo ng lahat ng 'to, she might just be the final masterpiece in Calista's gallery of death. Because for Lirael, it's better to be destroyed by Calista than to be saved by anyone else. "I was raised to be an angel, but for Calista Luna... I'm more than willing to burn in hell."

I never thought a single bottle of whiskey could ruin my life this fast. Nasa private beach kami nina Seraphina, well, siya lang ang matino dahil inaalalayan niya ang buntis niyang asawa habang kaming magkakaibigan nina Bea, Vivian, at Isadora ay wasak na sa kalasingan.

With zero hesitation, I approached that stunning woman and proposed right then and there. To my surprise, she actually said "Yes." I didn't care how or where they found a marriage contract that same night. Ang mahalaga lang sa akin ay manalo sa dare. Pero paggising ko kinaumagahan, hindi ang pera ang bumulaga sa akin. Beside me was the breathtakingly beautiful Lysandra, sleeping peacefully. As the memories of last night started to flood back, doon ko lang na-realize ang laking pagkakamali ko. I'm now legally married to a woman I barely know, all because of a drunk dare.

Kaya bago siya paupuin bilang CEO, kailangan niya munang dumaan sa impyerno, and that hell comes in the form of Isadora "Izzy" Laurent. Isadora is the total opposite of Vivian.

Dismantle the kikay girl and build a ruthless CEO in just six months. Isang maarte na ayaw sa stress vs. isang instructor na allergic sa petiks.

"It's not just a training, it's a total renovation of the heart."

Si Clara yung tipo ng tao na dapat i-ignore ni Seraphina, at si Seraphina naman ang rason kung bakit dapat lang umiwas si Clara.

Habang tumatagal ang mga gabi at humahalimuyak ang amoy ng dagat, yung asaran nila, unti-unting nagiging something serious. Si Seraphina na sanay na laging nasa kanya ang control, biglang nawawalan ng kontrol sa babaeng nagse-serve sa pamilya niya.

Sa summer na puno ng secrets at stolen moments, sapat kaya ang forbidden desire nila para labanan ang social divide-o maglalaho lang ang summer romance nila kapag natapos na ang bakasyon?
