[CARPE DIEM SERIES #2] A grieving girl with a promise to keep. A boy she was never supposed to trust. A found family built on deadlines and chaos. And a story that deserves to be told. *** Avery Rayne Carreon didn't join the publication to make friends. She joined to become Editor-in-Chief-to write the editorial that would finally give her best friend's death the justice it deserved. The plan was simple. Keep her walls up, do the work, and let no one in. What she didn't plan for was the editorial board. Loud, chaotic, and annoyingly impossible to ignore, they are not what Rayne signed up for. But somewhere between missed deadlines, crazy coverage, and mid-night presswork, they start to feel like something she doesn't have a word for yet. And then there is Nash Dillon Cadogan. Talented, infuriating, and the only person standing between her and everything she came here for. He wasn't supposed to matter. She wasn't supposed to let him in. Yet she is running out of reasons not to. Everyone leaves eventually. She knew that better than anyone. She just never counted on people stubborn enough to stay.

Beyond Series #1 When you're in love, you could be the most stupid person you could ever be. Wrong feels right. Black looks white. Smiles over cries. To be in pain means to be vain. Toleration seems like an obligation. All for love. Kung may isang taong magpapatunay nito, siya na ang pinaka-kwalipikado: Dana Pineda, a fine arts student, talented painter and certified love-sucker. Almost four years of relationship and counting, envisioned future together, first love and first and everything--reasons engraved in Dana's mind that serve as a constant reminder as to why she should keep the toxic relationship with her long-time boyfriend, Jared. Para kay Dana, kung hindi si Jared, wala ng ibang tatanggap at magmamahal sa kaniya. Ito na ang kaniyang magiging una't huli at wala ng iba pa. For her, she's just an unattractive, insecure, and less worthy woman oozing with flaws, issues, and emotional baggage. Wala namang ibang lalaki pa ang gugustuhin ang isang babaeng gaya niya. There's no one else for her. Or so she thought. Her life's greatest plot twist is about to happen, when Javi Aragonza, the popular basketball team captain, barged in without knocking.

Set in the 1990s, 19-year-old outgoing beauty, Tin Escalante, has always had the most cliché dream ever--to live a better life. Growing up unprivileged, she is ready to do whatever it takes to lift herself and her family out of poverty, even if she has to marry one of her international pen pals. Tin was perfectly fine with all the clichés in her everyday life until two major twists came to spice it up: she discovered her love for writing a romance novel, and she crossed paths with Rio Agustin, a promising computer engineering student, who looks like a '90s matinee idol that came straight out of a movie. In an attempt to write a non-cliché love story, Tin finds herself crafting an unbreakable bond with the aloof Rio, whose top priorities do not include romance. When two unique main characters in two different slice-of-life books are bound together, can they eventually share the same cliché happily ever after?
