Royce Allegre was never meant to kiss Giordana Ramirez. One slip in the dark, and suddenly he was caught in a moment that should never have happened, his lips on the girl he should never want, the girl his family would never accept. He should have walked away. Instead, the memory clings, haunting him, drawing him back to her with a gravity he cannot resist. There is something in her eyes-sad yet fiercely alive and brimming with quiet resilience that pulls him closer, even as every glance threatens to ignite what must remain forbidden. Some mistakes can be buried. Others blossom into obsessions. And Royce is about to discover just how far he will go when desire refuses to be denied... for the wrong girl. The Wrong Love | Book Two --

Isobel Rossi grew up in love with the idea of Cillian Zhang. For as long as she could remember, she wanted to be his first in everything-his first kiss, his first love, his first girlfriend. A part of her believed their families' history had already woven their lives together, and all she needed to do was step into that destiny. But Cillian is not a dream. He's a storm. Moody, distant, untouchable. A boy who feels more like a warning than a promise. Nothing like the twin brother everyone else swore was the better match for her. The right twin. Yet Isobel's heart refuses safety. It craves the fire, the ache, the impossible pull of the wrong brother. Because some loves aren't meant to save you... they're meant to ruin you. The Wrong Love | Book One ---

Love is the easiest to fake in showbiz industry. A smile can convince millions, a glance can sell a story, and a kiss can be nothing more than a scene perfected for the cameras. Everything can be staged, until the lines between performance and truth start to blur. Selene Avery Huerta knew how to live with that blur. She mastered the art of guarding her heart, giving the world only what it wanted to see. Mas madali kasi magpanggap kaysa ipakita kung gaano siya nasaktan before. And in a world where everyone is watching, she believed the safest way to survive was to keep love hidden behind the script. But the limelight has its own way of rewriting endings. It found a way to bring her back to Kade Asher Alvarez---the one she swore to avoid---because in a world built on make-believe, nothing is more dangerous than a love that refuses to stay hidden.

(The Lost Souls on Tour: The Last Tour) What are the things that you are willing to do for the person that you love? Minsan, kapag nagmamahal tayo, doon na 'tin mas nakikilala ang sarili na 'tin dahil...may mga bagay pala na kaya na 'ting gawin. Love...can make us better but also bring out the worst in us. And it's risky, because we tend to hurt ourselves at the process of it. No matter how smart a person is, love can make them stupid and dumb. And for Theodosius Maximon Valdroza, no matter how smart he is, he will be foolish when it comes...to her. Smart, achiever since he was a kid, talented, competitive...but when it comes to her, his competitiveness has always been worn out if it was her who he would be his opponent. Ayaw niya na nagagalit siya sa kaniya kung siya naman ay unti-unting nababaliw rito. A young love that grows together with him. A love that makes him...selfless. Because he was always ready to give everything to her. He was always ready to do anything just to please her. He was always ready to...surrender. To love, to grow with it, to wait, to conquer...everything for her. Theo was always willing even if it meant to break him apart just for her. Because she will always be his...sweet surrender. - I do not own the book cover that I used, credit to the rightful owner. Date Started: August 23, 2024 Date Ended: May 12, 2025

(The Lost Souls on Tour: The Fourth Tour) What is real in this world? May katotohanan nga ba sa mundo'ng puno ng kasinungalingan? Mga tawang madaling mapeke, ngiting kay daling iukit sa mga labi, luhang tumulo ngunit emosyo'y peke, pagmamahal na akala'y liwanag ngunit sa dilim naman pala'y namamalagi. Everything can be fake and when you know that, you can't even trust one thing in this world because of the possibility that it was all just a lie. Even though we tried to look at it in a positive way, we can never change the fact that everything can be...a lie. And it's hard...to trust. Andrius Joseff Romano is the playful bassist of Lost Souls. After the downfall of the band, the things that he can only do is meddle in his school and house. The school where peals of laughter are all fake, a house where love is all lie. Sa kabila ng mga ngiti, mga birong sinasambit, may dilim sa emosyong kinukubli. Paano kung ang buhay na mayroon siya, kasinungalingan lang pala? Paano niya matatakasan ang reyalidad? Paano makakaligtas sa dilim? Kung pati ang liwanag na akala niya'y nagtatanging tunay, kasinungalingan din? What if the person who he was with as he gets lost in the reality of lies was also just...a liar? - I do not own the book cover that I used, credit to the rightful owner.

(The Lost Souls on Tour: The Third Tour) Perfection, does this word truly exist in this world? O baka isang salitang pinipilit na 'tin na magkatotoo kahit na pagbali-baliktarin pa ang mundo, hinding-hindi magagamit ang salitang perpekto sa kahit ano mang aspeto. Almost perfect could exist but perfect is something beyond to even measure. And that is because the world has always seen Suriel Zephyrus Avila as the perfect man who could ever exist. Simula pa lang sa itsura hanggang sa talento, he could be really named as a man of perfection. But one thing could break the word perfection when it comes to his attitude. He barely speaks yet he never lies. Something that people could hate the most about him. He says what he wanted to say and he will do it directly right at your face, hurting your feelings up until to your ego. He never lies even though his words could hurt you. Hindi siya nagsisinungaling, he hates lying so much... Or does he really don't? Kahit kailan hindi hiniling ni Suriel ang perpektong buhay na mayroon siya. He only wants his guitar and a pillow to sleep rather than being praised by the others. He never likes that... Ngunit isang bagay ang sisira sa takbo ng buhay niya. One unexpected phenomenon that made his life turned upside down. Ang mga ngiting hindi inakalang uukit sa mga labi, unti-unting nabura at dinala ng lakas ng agos ng luha. Ang tamis ng halik na siyang naging palatandaan ng walang hanggang pangako, magiging halik na lamang sa hangin na lilipad sa mga pangakong kahit kaila'y hindi na matutpad pa... Ang tag-araw hindi na naging katulad pa ng dati para kay Suriel. Ang mga alaala'ng kahit pilit kalimutan, kung ang panahon na mismo ang magiging palatandaan, kahit ano pa'ng pilit hinding-hindi na mabubura pa. Because from the day that he lost her, his every summertime turned into sadness. - I do not own the book cover that I used, credit to the rightful owner.
