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.

Part Time Series #1 (Completed/Major revision) What is a dream? It's a question that many ponder. Is it your future job? Your planned career? A goal you've longed for? Or the life you hope to have one day? For Icehelle Kendra Casimiro, her only dream is to become a doctor someday. But beneath that dream, there's something deeper-a hidden crack in the facade. More than anything, she just wants to be happy. Driven by the desire to graduate early and support her siblings, she juggles the demanding world of medicine with a part-time job at 7-eleven. Her days are filled with a delicate balance of studying complex medical concepts and serving customers at the convenience store. But her life has always been as dark as a tinted night, shrouded in shadows that seem to consume everything around her. Never once has she felt her father's love or attention-deprived of it as if by design. He has made it clear time and time again that he wants nothing to do with them. And so, she has learned to turn away, seeking solace in her own solitude. Life has taken everything from her. Even her own family-stolen away by the hands of others. In the midst of her pursuit, Liander Marco Amero, the breadwinner of his family, hides the immense pressure of responsibility placed on him. Even though studying architecture demands much of his time, he still finds a way to support his family by working at a café. And when he jumped into Icehelle's life, he painted it with vibrant colors. He became the source of infinite laughter she had always hoped for, pulling her out of the shadows and becoming her captivating chase to infinity. But all's well that ends well. Pursuing captivated dreams in separate paths, they find solace in knowing that their hearts once danced together, even as fate leads them to distant horizons.

Nadia de Marco knew what she wanted in life and that is to be the most powerful woman in the country. Growing up in the Philippines, she knew that it would be an uphill climb. There is misogyny everywhere, but instead of fighting it, she decided to use it to her advantage. That is probably the upside of being undermined, being almost invisible-people will never see you coming. While she was watching everyone's moves, no one was watching hers. Things were going according to plan until Avery Brienne Eliseo came into the picture. Suddenly, she got an enemy. And unlike Avery who has her cousin by her side, she has no one. And she needs to have someone. She's been looking for so long until she found Archibald Reign Gallego-the perfect partner in crime... or so she thought.
