"You are invited to Temptation Island."

WARNING: SPG | R-18 | Mature Content Inside | COVER BY: Race Darwin "You're invited to Temptation Island."

Princess Sumaguban is twenty one, a nursing student, and the only girl in a family of law enforcement. Her father is a chief in the U.S. military, strict but deeply loving, and her uncles in the Philippines wear badges of their own. The kind of family that makes boys nervous before they even say hello. She has effectively had no boyfriend since birth. Not because she couldn't. But because she never wanted what boys her age offered. Too loud. Too careless. Too frat boy, all bravado and no backbone. She was named Princess for a reason. The only girl, fiercely protected, raised with discipline, expectations, and a future she took seriously. School came first. It always did. Her life is busy and full, split between nursing school and hospital rotations, running on caffeine, adrenaline, and stubborn optimism. One ordinary day, she sees him. Tall. Russian. Brown curls that refuse to behave. Glasses. Incredibly handsome. He doesn't smile. She can tell. Lips so luscious it throws her off balance, but she already knows a man like him belongs in a lab or an operating room, not standing this close to her, not close enough that she suddenly forgets how to breathe. She offers him a bite of her favorite snack. She knows she shouldn't have. But in that moment, she knows he takes more than a bite. He takes something that sinks into her chest, threading itself through a place that was never meant for anyone else.

Attorney Madison Del Russo feels watched by a stalker who's been observing her for years. She grapples with her dark past, including a traumatic kidnapping experience.

Salvation came in the form of a stranger with a Russian accent who vanished as quickly as he appeared. Now, as Madison fights for justice in the public eye, shadows cling to her private life. Someone is watching. Her instincts scream to confront the threat, yet a twisted yearning for the stalker's reveal lingers. Because part of her suspects he might be the man who saved her or the monster who never truly left. DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish. COVER DESIGN: Regina Dionela

My life before was just like my name, Haven. Everything was peaceful, everything went my way, and I had everything that I needed. If I wanted something, I'd have it in a snap. I didn't need to move, make an effort, or work for it. I just needed my daddy's tiny rectangular card that might look insignificant but carried the world on its little sharp edges. Money might not equate to happiness, but it certainly made life easier for me. And yet a year later, from heaven I was dropped into my version of hell. Now, I'm standing in the aisle of a grocery store, wondering if I should just buy another batch of instant noodles because I don't want to waste money-money that I barely have to begin with-on food that will just end up being barely edible. Was that the hell I'm talking about? No. It's working unbelievably long hours just to get paid basically nothing, and wanting to buy food to eat because I haven't had one meal for the day, only to end up having a gun on my head. Oh, and before I forget-kidnapped! At a grocery store! My version of hell? It's the tattooed, hot-headed Italian and head of a secret criminal society, Allessio Cascella.
