[One of Wattpad's Most Recommended in 2012 and 2013.] [Story published under LIB.] Wala nang kulang sa buhay niya. Iyon ang buong pag-aakala ni Midori. Hanggang sa nagsimula ang tadhana na paglaruan ang tahimik niyang buhay. She knew things would never be the same. But destiny decided to join life's twisted game; and came in her life the 100th guy who passed by her: the only guy who made her heart beat in love for the first time. With all hope withering and reasons falling apart he is willing to stay... but will she? This is a story of life and love, of holding on and hoping, of believing and smiling, amidst the inevitable reality of life- death. A story that will prove that for every one hundred persons who would pass by us, there would always be one person who would stay until the end of the day.

Dominic Kinkaide does bad, bad things. As a 24-year old actor with the world on a string, not many women tell Dominic no. In a life where no doesn’t exist, he stretches the boundaries between what is right, what is wrong and what is downright depraved. Dark and damaged, Dom wants no commitments. He wants no attachments. He only wants to disappear into the taboo, into a place where he feels something. Anything. But when the aching need to disappear into the darkness is the only thing he has left, Dominic flounders. In a world that is hollow and sexual, without a guiding light or a reason to breathe, Dominic is lost and broken. He knows he’ll never be fixed. So he makes a decision. If he’s going to hell, he might as well make it worth it. ******** UNTIL WE BURN is #2.5 in the Beautifully Broken series by Courtney Cole.
