THE LOSERS' CLUB SERIES #4 How does it feel to live with tons of what ifs and should-have-beens? Knowing that under different parameters, you could have worked it out. Knowing that if you only weathered the storm together, you could have built a home in each other's arms. Napakaraming sana--ganiyan ang naging takbo ng buhay ni Ysabelle Katana Montecer. Sana mayaman siya. Sana mas maganda. At sana may kapangyarihan siyang ibalik ang oras. If only she had listened to the little voice in her head, she could have been in a relationship with the only man who ever caught her attention--River Mattias Fuentabella. But it was too late for her. She was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. A heartbeat away from silence. Kahit ayaw niya, kailangan niyang tanggapin ang hatol ng tadhana. River would always be out of her reach. He was close, but not too close enough for her to hold. They could have happened. They could have been together. But sadly, they never were.

He thought she was just a quiet neighbor with old music. She thought he'd never notice her at all. In a city that never sleeps, two haunted souls live side by side-sharing walls, secrets, and a love for late-night Sinatra. She's a criminal psychologist with a guarded heart and a record collection. He's a former assassin trying to forget how to feel. Neither of them expected company. But sometimes, love shows up like a song in the dark-familiar, unexpected, and impossible to ignore.

Josephine Victoria "Vicky" Vanderbilt has everything money can buy-but not the freedom she craves.

What begins as banter becomes something dangerous, something forbidden. This is the story of Bucky Barnes before the war-and the love that changed everything.
