Lovisa Adelaide Montelara is the popular campus sweetheart at University of Santa Clarisse. She embodies the "it girl" persona---having it all: looks, talent, personality, intelligence, and a family background with two parents who are both doctors. Her life seems perfect. Known for her ethereal beauty and impressive achievements, she gained attention on social media after finishing junior high, quickly becoming a well-known figure. Though Adelaide is grateful for everything she has, the weight of her popularity becomes a struggle. She feels pressure to maintain an image of perfection: outstanding student, obedient daughter, and role model for young women. The expectations that come with being "that girl" have left her afraid of making mistakes or disappointing others. To add to the pressure, she finds herself caught up in an unwanted love team with Kevin Troy Belasco, the campus heartthrob and TikTok influencer. Kevin, whom she has known since elementary school due to their parents' friendship, insists on the fake relationship to boost his own popularity, despite not actually liking her. In response, Adelaide devises a plan to get a fake boyfriend to make Kevin back off---enter Yohan Liuwen, the cold nerd she never noticed before. What she doesn't know is that Yohan is actually the anonymous electric guitarist she's been secretly crushing on online. Hushedhearts #1

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
