Falling in love was a story he didn't know... until he met her. (The Spaces in Between -- Andreau Cortez POV)

Tagalog/English [PUBLISHED UNDER POP FICTION - 2017]

Geek and bookworm Jamie Navarro doesn't exactly know how to have fun when she's dragged to her first night out with her friends. When River Ongpauco shows her with dancing, body shots, and a good time--she ends up on his bed the following morning. *** Jamie is as innocent as they come, but when she wakes up alone on River's bed after spending an amazing night with him, she can't help but leave a killing curse (Avada Kedavra) on his window. But River is determined to woo her, and their one night turns into something more--a perfect relationship with a somewhat perfect boyfriend...if only he opens up to Jamie and stops keeping himself at arm's length. When this breaks them apart, can River give his heart and his all to the girl he first took for granted? Will she let him? DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish. COVER DESIGN: Louise De Ramos

MOUNT VALLEY SERIES #1 Oz Lacy is that broody rich bad boy everyone stays away from. Him and his crew likes to wreak havoc in town, not giving a shit to anyone they step on along the way. You know that misunderstood villain in every good hero's tale? Well, this is his story. ___ BAD BOY x DORKY GIRL trope From the world of A and D, but with a darker and edgier take on high school life in Mount Valley High. Strictly not for the softies and the faint-hearted. This is a stand-alone, so you don't have to read A and D or Mismatched Compatibility first. Also, this has a different atmosphere compared to the bright romantic comedies I usually do. It has action, with more use of vulgar words. But there are still sweet moments, of course! ;D

Maria Georgianne Marfori loved Noah Elizalde more than anything in this world. Ganon din halos lahat ng mga babaeng kilala niya. Yes, he's probably that hot and adorable.

They think purely loving someone with your heart was wrong. Binigyan tayo ng Panginoon ng puso at utak. Puso, para maramdaman ang sentimento. Utak, para mapag isipan kung dapat bang tanggapin ang sentimento ng puso. We have to identify who's the better judge. But then again, do we always have that chance to judge? Paano kung ipaglaban mo man iyon ay wala ka parin namang halaga? How are you going to fight for your heart when you know from the very beginning you will lose? That you are Worthless? Why do we all want this? To love what does not love us. To leave those who want to stay. To push away those who want to stay close. To treasure what is worthless.
