"Some love stories don't begin with confessions. Some begin with silence, missed chances, and two people pretending they never cared." ------------ She was supposed to marry someone else... but destiny made her his wife instead. 🤍 A soft-hearted girl. A dangerously calm man. And a marriage neither of them expected. Avantika Rathore & Avyukt Vardan #SlowBurn #ArrangedMarriage #WattpadRomance

Fake dating is easy... until it's not. Barbs has survived seven blind dates in one week. Seven men. Zero sparks. One very fried patience. Meanwhile, Caloy just needs a girlfriend-on paper-para makuha ang lease sa dream café location na hawak ng kanyang super kulit na Tito. And who better to pretend with than the woman na pinaka-mahilig mang-asar sa kanya? It's simple: Pretend to be in love. Survive family parties, nosy titas, and Lola Conching's wedding hints. Totally not fall for each other. But between teaching Barbs how to drive, ride a bike, and swim (disaster level: high), and Caloy's crash course in baking at gardening (disaster level: higher), the lines between fake and real start to blur. Throw in an ex-boyfriend with unfinished business, a café full of chaos, and two hearts that might just be budgeted risks worth taking... "Love, Loudly" is a Whispers of Me spinoff that's all banter, warm coffee, stubborn hearts, and the kind of love that sneaks up when you're too busy pretending it's not there.

AMBY AWARDS TOP PICK 2023 ❤️ "You think I can't act like I'm into you?" He asks in a whisper. He reaches out, and strokes a finger down my cheek, and I feel myself shiver at the touch. "You think I can't convince everyone that I have feelings for you?" His eyes are darker than ever, and any sign of a smile has now vanished. The only word I can think right now to describe him is "smouldering". I have searched many great romance novels (and even more sub-standard ones), and I am yet to find a better synonym for that particular word. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Abigail Watson has always played by the rules.

"We could just . . . *do it*, you know," he says now, teasingly. "Clear all that sexual tension up with one quick ten minute session?" I seriously hope he's joking, but I'm not certain he is. Either way, I can't prevent the exasperated huff of laughter that escapes my lips at those words. "You must be dreaming if you think there's *any* sexual tension between us," I scoff.
