Three Friends are all slightly Philophobic, they all have their own reason for being this way. As they go through their final term of year 9 before the summer holidays start, they tell their story in their own ways. Firstly, slightly nerdy Norah who is obsessed with her romance novels, keeps a diary. But it is not long before Norah experiences some romance of her own and finally wakes up to the reality of how love really is. Will she experience romance the way it is said in the books, or will she get disappointed? Quirky Kim emails her cousin, Ashley from New Zealand, regularly. She is a bit of a flirt and has never had a problem with her love life in the past. Then one day, she breaks up with her boyfriend, Louis, who does not take it very well. Kim still feels no guilt, but when she starts falling for Jonah, she gets a taste of her own medicine. Finally, hippie-like Flo breaks up with her boyfriend Ross after he cheats on her. The hurt from her relationship causes her to never want to fall in love again. To prove her point that love hurts, she writes a novel for a competition to win a camera. Her novel is about her and her friend's experiences as well as her disapproval of her sister's relationship. Being new to all this, the girls share their journey into their possible recovery of Philophobia.

Rafayel x All Love Interest (Love Without Boundaries)
Rafayel, the Chosen One of Philos, was born directly from Philos - the living entity and Sea God of Lemuria. Though he lived disguised as a university student and worked as a hunter for UNICORN, his true nature was divine. As long as Rafayel lives, the world of Philos will never perish. When the dark organization EVER attempted to destroy Philos' nature core for their own power, Rafayel made the ultimate sacrifice. To protect both the core and his four lovers - Sylus, Zayne, Xavier, and Caleb - he used up all of his divine energy, giving up his memories and powers so that they would not have to sacrifice themselves instead. His selfless act saved Philos, leaving its core stable and pure. Now, with his past erased, Rafayel lives unaware of his true identity. His four lovers, still deeply in love with him, decide to start over - teaching him how to live as he once did, helping him rediscover the warmth of their bond. Meanwhile, UNICORN, the very organization he once served as a hunter, secretly protects him from the shadows, honoring the one who once saved both their world and his loved ones. However, when Rafayel eventually returns to Lemuria, his mischievous and carefree side resurfaces. Without memories of his responsibilities as the Sea God, he becomes playful, reckless - even disruptive to the sea itself. The sea grows restless under his uncontrolled power, forcing Elder Edmund to summon his four lovers. Realizing their divine Sea God is now too troublesome to manage, Edmund orders them to send Rafayel back to the land until he learns restraint and maturity. The elders decree that he may only return to Lemuria when he stops disturbing the sea - a lesson for their cheeky god who has forgotten his purpose.Complete
