AR. THADDEUS BERNARDO APOSTOL faces his greatest regret after ten long years of waiting for the girl that got away. But instead of meeting Susanna Evangeline Rama's future self, the mysterious lighthouse of Faro de Amoré brings back the Sanna from his past that he failed to protect-clueless about her life and the events that occurred between the years 2009 and 2011, with 49 days ticking on her wrist. However, fate doesn't seem to be doing Thad any favors when a little boy emerges from the lighthouse, bearing a resemblance to both him and Sanna-again, with the same day and time on his wrist. Forty-nine days, fragmented memories as clues, and questions about Thaddeus' past that link him to the 4th missing item of the de Dios-will Thad be able to uncover the truth behind the past that holds him back from his present? And if so, will it be easy to accept? Disclaimer: This story is written in Taglish. Cover Design: WeirdyGurl

I hoped life would get better when I moved to my mother's hometown, but it only got worse because it was there that I met my unrequited crush, Hayden Black. He despised me from day one, and even more when I became best friends with his twin, Kayden. Kayden gave light to my life, but my happiness with him lasted only until one night two years ago. That night Kayden died because of me. Half of me died with him. The other half was left to bleed, suffering Hayden's and his friends' constant bullying. Now I must endure one more year before I can finally escape them and go to college. This year has to be different. Either I will become stronger, or they will finally break me into nothing. ----------- Highest rank in Romance: #1 on 10/28/2017 Bullied won the Best Romance and the Best Diverse Book award and the Bullied series won the Best Trilogy/Series award in The Fiction Awards 2018. --------- I wrote this novel for #NaNoWriMo2016 #NaNoWinner2016
