Highest rating: General Fiction: #26 Romance: #13 ------------------------------- "Tulungan mo ako, Ashley" Desperadang sabi ko sa kanya. Wala na akong mapupuntahan pa dahil pinalayas ako ng parents ko dahil sa kondisyon ko. "I'm pregnant, hinahabol ako ng tatay nitong batang ito." At tinuro ko ang tiyan ko. "Yun naman pala. Baka pananagutan ka kaya ka hinahabol." Sagot nito saakin pero umiling ako. "Kaya nga kailangan kong tumakas. Ayoko sa lalaking yun! Masyadong bossy! Hindi kaya ng powers ko ang pakisamahan ang tulad niya!" Galit na sabi ko sa kanya. Napabuntong hininga nalang siya at may inabot saakin na cheque. May laman itong 100,000. Nagpasalamat naman ako sakanya. "Basta gawin mo akong ninang sa batang yan ah." Tumango ako sa kanya at nagpaalam na para umalis. Agad na rin akong nagpabook ng flight paalis ng bansa. Pero papasok palang ako ng airport ng biglang may nagsalita sa likod ko. "Where do you think you're going?" -------------------- BILLIONAIRE SERIES #3

When River crosses paths with a man who speaks to every hidden hunger inside her, their connection spirals into an all-consuming pull neither of them can resist-but is she Grayson's salvation... or his ruin? *** Everyone in River Avelle's hometown knows about Grayson Maddox-the troubled bad boy who almost killed another student in the middle of the school hallway. Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin
