Love was nowhere to be found. For her, she'll never find love quite as good as the first time. A kind of love that wasn't questionable to the palate even if it wasn't hers to begin with-nothing would ever compare. For him, love can only happen once. A heart that stopped beating is as good as dead. If he couldn't make it right the first time, there's no sense trying for a second. Because no one and nothing would ever come close to how good he once had it. And yet, a universal truth pulls them together, a magnetic force so strong they couldn't fight it no matter how hard they try. Because somewhere between here and now, love has favored their side. Perhaps they were looking at the wrong places when love was always near. Nearly Theirs - a novel Ongoing (2025). Book Cover art by: kathanikath (on X/Twitter)

Book 2 of the Sheet Series by Nayin Yagdulas Laiah Billie Ty was raised to believe that love is a liability. As the youngest daughter of one of the country's wealthiest families, her life has always been measured by expectations-perfect grades, pristine image, and a future carefully mapped out by her powerful parents. No distractions. No detours. And absolutely no falling in love. By graduation, she was finally ready to break that rule and confess her feelings to Miles Terrence Fabroa, certain he felt the same. But right after the ceremony, her mother made sure they would never meet. In that moment, Billie knew it was the last time she would ever see him, so she chose silence instead of love and walked away before any confession could be made. Years later, Billie is a CPA running her own firm, leasing space in a commercial building. What she does not know is that the building's new manager is none other than Miles. Once a dreamer, now a licensed engineer, Miles has built a quiet life far from the elite circles Billie still tries to survive in. Both successful. Both single. Both carrying a history neither of them ever truly let go of. She was taught to choose legacy over love. He never stopped choosing her. But between spreadsheets and silent stares, the sheet between them begins to shift. What once separated them now draws them into the same space again. In a world where emotions are liabilities and marriages are transactions, can two people who were never allowed to love finally find the courage to choose each other? #TSBUWP #SheetSeriesWattpad

That is, until she's forced to work with Ash Seth Sarmiento, the company's most competent CPA... and unfortunately, the most attractive man in the building. He's confident, brilliant, and exactly the kind of man she's sworn to avoid. Worse? She needs his help. With an important business event coming up and her aunt's struggling venture on the line, Veronica has no choice but to rely on the one man she doesn't want anywhere near her heart. She's good at keeping things professional. He's great at crossing lines. And when the formulas get too complicated, sometimes... Sheet Happens. #SheetHappensWP #SheetSeriesWattpad
