Leaving Manila was hard enough, but becoming a girl Friday for her stepbrother Apollo Arcangel in Hermosa? Sahara Israeli never saw that twist coming. *** Sahara Israeli thought her Manila life was over the moment her widowed mother moved them to the beautiful province of Hermosa-to start over with her mom's new fiancé and his too-perfect son. Apollo Arcangel, heir to Hacienda Arcangel, is everything Sahara isn't: disciplined, dutiful, and annoyingly good at following rules. Tasked with keeping an eye on her, he insists they make a deal: she'll be his girl Friday, helping him manage the whole hacienda. But as bickering turns into banter and duty turns into desire, Sahara and Apollo find themselves caught in a forbidden attraction. Will their love for each other outweigh their loyalty to their parents? DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish. COVER DESIGN: Rayne Mariano

Sinteya Yeo has always been into "sinful" acts until her world was shaken when she took the challenge of playing fire with her respectable college professor. ***** Pinaniniwalaan ni Sinteya Yeo na sex objects lang ang tingin ng mga lalaki sa mga babae, a belief borne from the fact that she's the daughter of a single mother and unknown father. Kung sex lang ang habol ng mga ito, then sex lang ang ibibigay niya and nothing else. That view in life molded the woman she is today until she sets her sights on her handsome ethics professor, Sir Marco, who brushes off sexual innuendos and flirtations. As her frustration of proving her point turns into deeper, warm, and fuzzy feelings, hindi mapigilan ni Sinteya na ibaling ang tukso sa isa pang forbidden conquest, a more willing victim . . . because she believes that forbidden acts are the most pleasurable.
