The thing with Valentine's Day is, either you hate it or you love it. And Zade Pascual definitely belongs to the first category. Para sa kanya, isang araw lang ito ng commercialized version ng pag-ibig. Walang kakilig-kilig at napakalayo sa true love stories na nababasa niya sa mga libro. Nasubok ang kanyang anti-Valentine's sentiment when she unexpectedly meets Andreau Cortez-an award-winning actor and film student at her university-in the cafe where she works-- on Valentine's Day of all days. Andreau, their new cafe regular, surprises Zade by asking for her help with his latest short film project, which she hesitantly agrees to. Despite a rocky start, Zade discovers the real Andreau Cortez beyond the camera and celebrity gossip. Over the fika-not date hangouts and late-night conversations, their effortless friendship blurs into something more, to the point na akala ng lahat (yes, friends and family included) na sila na ni Andreau. Caught off guard by her evolving feelings, Zade must confront her own heart. Hanggang best friend nga lang ba ang tingin niya kay Andreau? Can their story unfold like the happy endings she loves in books? Well, sometimes, the best love stories take time to tell.

Until he came. Unannounced. Secretly loving her in a safe distance. Secretly Yours - an epistolary novel Completed (2024).

He is off-limits. He has always been off-limits to her. Too bad, she's never been good at following the rules. After her failed attempt at happiness, Sahara Israel is back at the place she vowed to never set foot in again. Leaving the life she built with her ex-husband in the city, she had no choice but to come back to Hermosa to hide and lick her wounds. It was the last place on earth she wanted to go, but she needed to be with her best friends as she navigated this new chapter in her life... even if it meant she might bump into the first boy who had broken her heart before beyond repair. Apollo Arcangel is Hermosa's most eligible bachelor and also the hometown's hermit. He has spent the last five years building back the family business his father left in ruins. He has no time for frivolous things in his life, and there's no one more frivolous than his ex-girlfriend (and almost stepsister) Sahara. It's been years since he's seen her, but when Sahara drives into his land and back into his life, he realizes he still can't take his eyes off her. So Apollo takes it upon himself to help her get back on her feet, that way she can leave as quickly as she came. But first, he needs to know why she came back after being gone all these years without a trace. It's what he deserves after looking for her relentlessly. It's for his peace of mind... his closure. At least, that's what he keeps telling himself. As Sahara and Apollo learn to co-exist again, it's getting more difficult for them to separate old and new feelings for each other. Can he forgive her for leaving? Can she forget his betrayal? Or will they end up burning each other all over again? *** Updates every Friday. Also available on PATREON.

She was laser-focused with the top priority on her list. Adrianna Venaventura only wanted to pass the bar. But how could a night out suddenly change her course? It wasn't in her plans to meet anyone, wasn't in her plans to entertain, and most definitely, it wasn't in her plans to engage to a certain relationship-for whatever they call it. Something must have transpired for them to finally meet, someone must have trampled and messed with the strings and she knew it wasn't supposed to turn out the way it did. But Andy wasn't above resisting the call. She doesn't know why, which, or who, but somehow, that Wednesday night, something outside her list must have turned up again beyond her control, keeping her off track. It was a free fall when the strings were suddenly becoming undone. And if there's one thing she's good at, it's working hard beyond any circumstance to pursue what she wants head on, straight on.
