Portia Cecilia Ignacio is a model daughter. Siya na ang mahal na mahal ang kanyang mga magulang. Gagawin niya ang lahat para lang sa ikakasaya ng pamilya. She would climb mountains and swim vast oceans just for the happiness of her beloved parents and family. Pero minsan, sa sobra sobrang pagmamahal sa ibang tao, nakakaligtaan na ang pagmamahal sa sarili. Is it really worth it? She shouldn't ask right? It's family! But then... how could one person make her doubt her decisions? Is it really worth the sacrifice? To give all of her? To give everything? To give up everything? All for what she's been hoping for since time immemorial?

It was wrong to be near her. No. He shouldn't be near her. Nilalabanan ni Brandon ang kanyang sarili dahil useless ang attraction na nararamdaman niya. For him, it was all just a game. For him it's pretend-love every night and the show is over every morning. Kaya illegal ang makaramdam ng constant attraction para sa isang babaeng hindi niya naman gaanong kilala. But when Aurora Veronica wore that freaking corporate uniform, the walls he tried to build so hard came crashing down. Come on, Brandon, who are you kidding? The girl looked innocent but she's damn hot with those killer heels. It probably won't hurt that much. After all, it's just a game. It's just a game. Yes, it's just a game. Just one night. One night. It only takes one night to believe all the lies.

Free-spirited, rebellious and slightly bad girl slash cosplayer Princess Leia or Preia meets the neat-freak, all-serious, smart and handsome Lance Augustus Villarosa. Preia is a believer of "The One" thingy. In fact, meron siyang "The One" dati. Lance, on the other hand, believes in compatibility more than the "The One" theory. Trouble? Indeed. With a capital T for Lance. Nakukulitan, nagagaslawan at naiingayan si Lance kay Preia. But maybe, just maybe, opposite attracts? Maybe. Pero kung kailan naman na-a-appreciate na ni Lance si Preia, saka naman bumalik ang itinuturing na "The One" ni Preia. ****************************************** CREDITS : A BIG thank you to @yhang__yhang (yhangunnie) for my nice book cover. 😍 Please follow her. 😊

"Hello guys... What have I missed?" "Oh, my God! Tres!" excited na sabi ng mutual friend nilang si Miranda. Tres? The great Alfonso Esquivel The Third? Five years ago, during college, Tres was her boyfriend and she was Tres's sweetheart and they were happily in love with each other. But they broke up--no--she broke up with Tres days after their graduation when she saw him kissing other girl. After that, she never saw Tres again. Until now. At Lucas and Stasha, their mutual friends' wedding day. "Sobrang na-miss kita," sabi ni Miranda na halatang excited. Jorjina heard Tres chuckle. The same sexy drawl. Playful, naughty chuckle. Pinakalma ni Jorjina ang nagririgodon niyang puso bago humarap. And when she did, she met the pair of beautiful brown eyes belonging to the gorgeous Tres Esquivel. Tres was in his gray tuxedo. He was a a little more muscled than he was five years ago. He was sporting a long and messy hair that touched his suit's collar. And a thin eight o' clock shadow beard along his jawline that added character to him. Dangerously and devastatingly handsome. Still. And always. Jorjina met his gaze. Nasa harapan niya ang multo ng kanyang kahapon. All their memories flooded her mind. Bittersweet memories. Their gazes held for a few seconds. And then finally, the right corner of Tres's lips twitched upwad, forming a half-smile. Handsome half-smile that did not reach his bown eyes. "Hello, Jorjina. It's been a while." Sinalubong niya ang tingin ni Tres. "Hello, Tres," matipid na sabi ni Jorjina kasabay ang isang matipid na ngiti. Even if her heart was beating fast. Even if deep inside her heart, she missed him--so much. His beautiful brown eyes. His sexy drawl. His playful chuckle. His flirty smile. And the painful truth that after five, long and unhappy years, she was still hopelessly in love with Tres Esquivel-beyond words and endlessly.

"Miranda dela Cruz," sabi ni Ryan, team captain nina Jacob. "No one comes close to Miranda without having to deal first with Lucas. 'Di ba balita sa buong campus na crush ni Lucas si Miranda? I bet even Alfred here can't get past Lucas. Miranda is under the umbrella of protection of Lucas." Alfred was a football player in HFU at kilalang playboy. "Want to bet on that?" mayabang na sabi ni Alfred. "Kayang-kaya kong maging girlfriend si Miranda in three months." They knew a bet was on. "Tig-one hundred thousand kami--" "Drop it, you two!" authoritative na sabi ni Jacob kay Ryan. "'Wag n'yong pagpustahan si Miranda. That's cruel!" "Kung ayaw mong sumali, 'wag ka na lang makialam, Jacob." Si Ryan. "Why, Jacob? Natatakot ka ba kay Lucas?" SI Alfred ulit. "I'm not afraid of him." "Then prove it." "I have nothing to prove." "Make Miranda your girl in three months, Jacob. Kung hindi mo magawa 'yan, babayaran mo kami--" "No. Money is out of the question." Tumingin isi Ryan kay Jacob. "Hindi ko alam kung ano ang rason sa pagtutol mo." "Because that is fucking wrong!" mariing sabi ni Jacob. "Hindi kaya dahil takot ka kay Lucas, Jacob?" Tiningnan niya ng masama si Alfred. "Kung gano'n ikaw na ang gumawa, Jacob. Make Miranda your girl in three months. At kapag hindi mo nakayang gawin, si Alfred ang gagawa." Jacob smirked. "Hindi ako katulad n'yo." "I'd be more than willing. She's pretty," sabi ni Alfred. Nagsukatan sila ng tingin ni Alfred. Alam niyang hindi nagbibiro si Alfred. He had to protect Miranda. Ilayo ito kay Alfred kahit na nariyan pa si Lucas sa tabi ni Miranda. Because he cared for her. A lot. "I'm on it," seryosong sabi ni Jacob. Hindi siya sang-ayon sa pustahan. Gusto lang niyang ilayo si Miranda kay Alfred. But would the end justify the mean? What if Miranda thought otherwise? A BIG thank you to @yhang__yhang (yhangunnie) for my nice book cover.

"I have to warn you, Jorjina. Do not let yourself fall in love with me," seryosong sabi ni Tres habang diretsong nakatingin sa mga mata ni Jorjina. "I might break your heart. And I don't want that to happen." That was point-blank. Napalunok si Jorjina. Hindi niya alam kung bakit tila may kurot sa puso ang sinabi ng binata. She dismissed that thought in her mind. Tinaasan ni Jorjina ng isang kilay si Tres. "Ang feelingero mo naman, Tres Esquivel," mataray na sabi ng dalaga. "Hindi ako mai-in love sa 'yo dahil isa kang walking heartbreak. Isa kang malaking karengkeng at nagsusumigaw na heartbreak!" Pinakadiin-diin pa ni Jorjina ang mga huling salitang sinabi. "At hindi ako masokista para saktan ang sarili ko at kumuha ng batong ipupukpok sa ulo ko. Kaya 'yang warning mo na mai-in love ako sa 'yo ay malabong mangyari. Hindi. Mangyayari. 'Yan," mataray at confident niyang sabi habang kumukumpas-kumpas pa ang kamay niya. Ilang segundong nakatingin lang sa kanya si Tres. Him scanning and studying her face as if searching for the truth with what she said. "Good," Tres then finally said, not even smiling as if he felt disappointed with her answer. "At least we're crystal clear on that." Crytal clear on that. Klarung-klaro kay Jorjina. But why on earth did Jorjina Pascua aka Jorj, non-academic scholar -read : average girl-a plain jane and campus Artists' Club member eat her words and fell in love with Alfonso Esquivel III aka Tres Esquivel, breathtakingly handsome, ultra rich and campus' ultimate playboy? At ang masaklap pa, naibigay pa niya ang sarili niya sa binata. A BIG thank you to @yhang__yhang (yhangunnie) for my nice book cover. Please follow her ❤

(Will be published under BOOKWARE PUBLISHING CORPORATION - PINK AND PURPLE imprint) Lucas Jaime Agoncillo, currently the President of Student Council was known for his good-super good looks and for his brains, being a consistent Dean's Lister since he entered the university. Tall, moreno and handsome. He was a no-nonsense guy and always carried an air of authority with him. Super rich, being the scion of a prominent steel manufacturer in the country. Stasha Marie Villaruel, beautiful and bratty. Campus queenfor three consecutive years. Everybody in the campus called her Her Highness. Both are campus royalties. But they avoided each other's paths for underlying reasons unknown to both of them. Pareho nilang ini-snob ang isa't-isa sa campus. On the day of their foundation day, nagawa silang gawin partners sa isang marriage booth. "Groom, meet your bride, Her Highness Stasha Marie Villaruel. Bride, meet your groom, Mister President, Lucas Jaimes Agoncillo," sabi ng schoolmate nilang may pakana ng marriage booth na ginanap sa Art Room. Their eyes locked. Lucas held Stasha's gaze and then smiled-a gorgeous one at that. His eyes were glinting with amusement. Nagbaba ng tingin si Stasha. Hindi niya kayang matagalan ang tingin ni Lucas. At pagkatapos ay napadako ang tingin ni Lucas sa nakabukas na pinto ng Art Room. Lahat ng mga nagdadaang estudyante ay napapatingin sa loob. "Close the door, please," marahang utos ni Lucas sa isang naroroon na malapit sa pinto. "I don't want uninvited guests to my wedding." Napaangat si Stasha ng mukha at napatingin kay Lucas. And then Lucas smiled at Stasha as if teasing her. Isang ngiting lalong nagpapaguwapo kay Lucas. Isang ngiting madalang nitong maibigay kay Stasha.
