AMBROSE SERIES #2 Amaryllis Vega Perez grew up fast. Too mature for her age, Amari learned life's harshest lessons long before she should have. She spent her childhood carrying burdens that were never hers, sacrificing herself to protect her younger sisters. Like a star trapped beneath the vast ocean, she has always felt out of place-close enough to see the light, yet never able to reach it. Being accepted into Ambrose University for senior high school becomes her chance to finally surface. A new school, a new beginning, and perhaps a life that belongs to her for once. Then she meets Cornelius Zade Luna-brilliant, charming, and impossible to read. Beneath his effortless smile, however, is someone just as lost as she is. If Amari is a star beneath the waves, Cornelius is a fish searching for the sky, both longing for a place they've never truly belonged. What begins as rivalry slowly grows into an unexpected connection-one that feels like learning to breathe while drowning at the same time. But when the seas of her past begin to rage once more, will Amari finally rise above the waves... or remain a star beneath the waves forever? Language: TAGLISH Started: 11/29/25 Ended: 6/18/26

AMBROSE SERIES #1 Chiara Heaven Vergara didn't think light could reach her. Raised in a home where affection was scarce, she believed the warmth of love was a story for others to tell, never hers to live. Then came Malakai Elion Fuentes-her best friend and complete opposite. Bright, easygoing, and raised in a family overflowing with love, Kai became the quiet warmth that slowly melted the walls around her. He never demanded she change; he simply stayed, offering gentle understanding in the ways she needed most. But opening her heart is never easy for someone who has learned to survive in the cold. As fear and self-doubt threaten to pull her back into the darkness, will Chiara finally let the light seep in... or will she close the door before the sun can seep in?

"Survival of the fittest." Iyan ang nag-iisang batas sa loob ng Academia de San Lorenzo. Para sa iskolar na si Rielle Vedad, ang pagiging Top 1 ang tanging tiket niya para maiahon sa hirap ang pamilya. Para sa tagapagmana na si Caleb Salcedo, ang pagiging Rank 2 ay isang sumpa na nagpapaalala ng kanyang pagkabigo sa mata ng kanyang bilyonaryong ama. Sa loob ng maraming taon, nakulong sila sa isang tahimik na giyera. Si Rielle sa itaas, si Caleb sa likod niya. Walang pwedeng sumingit. Walang pwedeng magpabagsak sa kanila kundi ang isa't isa. Ngunit pag-apak nila sa huling dalawang taon ng high school, biglang magbabago ang mga patakaran ng laro. Sa pagdating ng mga bagong banta na susubok hindi lang sa kanilang talino kundi pati na rin sa kanilang paninindigan, matututunan nilang ang pinakamahirap na laban ay hindi nasasagot ng kahit anong test paper. Sa isang paaralan kung saan numero ang nagdidikta ng halaga mo, paano kung ang taong pinilit mong talunin sa loob ng maraming taon ay siya palang kaisa-isang taong sasalo sa'yo?

✔ | Sun Rays Series #1 Ritienzy, a social butterfly from HUMSS, wears her carefree smile like armor. Palakaibigan siya, oo, pero hanggang do'n lang. Ever since she witnessed her parents' love collapse, she learned to keep her heart at arm's length. Maybe bata pa siya at marami pang kailangang matutuhan, but the wounds beneath her laughter aren't as healed as she pretends. Then there's Jayscen from STEM, a smart, academically-driven guy who chases dreams bigger than the limits around him because of his expectations to himself. And behind his quiet composure hides a temper he once couldn't control. Fate crosses their paths twice, accidental yet strangely inevitable. . . at sa gitna pa talaga ng kalsada. Two teens. Two masks. Two hearts carrying battles the world doesn't see. Naging magkaibigan sila, pero hanggang kaibigan na lang ba talaga? And how will she, who's afraid to love, and him, who's afraid to fail, ever realize that their meeting is more than an accident, but the beginning of a path they must walk together--one that might just lead them past their limits, and into something infinite?
