(Seducing Drake Palma Book 2) "Hindi na ako magpapadala sa 'yo, Drake. You're just going to make me fall then smash me into pieces once again." It's been four years since Alys graduated from St. Claire's High. And by now, naka-move-on na siya mula sa first serious relationship niya no'ng high school. She now has a man who treats her like a princess, the man who has helped her pick up the pieces of her broken heart-si Tripp. Her feelings are secure and her life is full once again. Or so she thought. Ano ang gagawin niya ngayong siya naman ang hinahabol ng isang Drake Palma at hinihingan ng isa pang pagkakataon? Pilit iiwasan at tatakbuhan ni Alys si Drake. Pero masusubok ang kanyang tatag kung hanggang kailan niya mapaninindigan ang desisyon niyang to forget and let go of that once in a lifetime epic love.

"Drake Palma, humanda ka! I'm going to get you by hook or by crook!" Ito si Alys Perez, may pagka-loner, maingay, madalas bagsak ang grades sa klase, bigo sa pag-ibig, at may malaki siyang problema. Kasi naman, pumayag siyang gawin ang isang bagay na wala talaga siyang kahit anong experience. Ano ba naman ang alam niya sa pangse-seduce? At lalo na sa matalino, hot na hot, at super sungit na classmate pa niyang si Drake Palma?! Ah basta! Gagamitin niya ang lahat ng powers niya para maging "mission accomplished" sa challenge na ito. Hindi siya makapapayag na maging isa sa napakaraming babae sa school na naging brokenhearted dahil sa playboy na si Drake.

(For Hire: A Damn Good Kisser Book 2) Meet the new Dana Kathryn Ferrer. A little bit older and wiser, and a lot more confident, Dana-or DK, as she now prefers to be called-is the life of every party. Since he-who-must-not-be-named left her, DK has reinvented herself. Gone is the girl who's always pining for that boy. These days, DK, who manages to catch the attention of any boy she deems worth her time, gets to pick anyone she wants. She's completely over Cyriel Edrian Perez. But when she finds out that Cyriel is coming back, her perfect little world goes haywire. And when Andrei Louie Guzman starts courting her-a romantic Filipino tradition he's never bothered following for any other girl-she still won't give him the time of day. Does DK simply want closure, or could it be that she's not completely over the boy who broke her heart?

The reality of life never grants wishes, it gives pain. It makes people learn. May mga bagay na nagagawa dahil sa sakit. May mga salitang nabibitawan dahil sa galit. Bit we should never condemn ourselves for a mistake. We should be open to second chances. We should try once more.

We understand how dangerous a mask can be, we become what we pretend to be. The mask becomes our own skin, until we are consumed by the lies and the pretendings. But I guess it can't be helped. No one will love you unless you wear a mask on. No one will accept you unless you become the person they wanted you to be. No one will love you for who you are. No one will look at you without your mask. No one. Not even one. However, love.. the most powerful thing in the world, is the only one who can reveal the face behind the mask. Love is the only way to be freed. Love is the only acceptance you can get. Too bad I don't believe in love. And I would rather forever wear a mask.

Sometimes letting go is less painful than holding on. An addiction can only be cured by withdrawing. Kapag sobra na ay tigilan. Kapag masakit na ay huminto na. Kapag hindi na kaya ay bumitaw na.

First, let my tears fall Second, make me stand tall Third, mend this broken hole. As I close my eyes and whisper these wishes, may the good fairy grant what my heart desires. Heal what is broken in my heart and complete what has been lost when I fell in love.

Fate doesn't ask you what you want. Fate knows what is best even if you don't. Fate...is what we have done. Fate binds you to a magical spell called "love".

Ang buhay ay isang malaking entablado na may libo libong mananayaw. Some dance in a fast, upbeat tone while some dance in a slower, finer way. But at the end of the song, the fact still remains that we all dance in the tune called life. Iba iba siguro ang paraan natin ng pagsasayaw pero lahat tayo ay darating sa punto kung saan haharapin natin ang huling tugtog, ang huling sayaw.
