The Secrets We Keep (Completed)
Jendra's Menphis mission maybe dangerous, but her job was simple enough. Bilang si JC ay kailangan niyang makipaglapit, protektahan at iligtas mula sa lalo pang kapahamakan ang rogue agent na si Srefan, a.k.a. Paul. Mas delikado pa sa mission niya ang dahilan ng lalaki kung bakit nasa Memphis ito, at parte ng trabaho niya ang i-distract si Stefan sa mga plano nito. She succeeded in 'distracting' him, alright. But not too much for him to declare that he loves her... not too much that she'd find herself being distracted as well, and falling for the man she knows she can never be with. © 2020 K. N.

Love At First Text ✔️
Being a hopeless romantic has never faired Eden Holland well. For all her expectations of being swept off of her feet, to public declarations of love and swoon worthy date nights beneath the stars, she's suffered only broken hearts, failed first dates, and a long list of let downs. Still, she dreams of her own cliche love story, and when an exchange of texts begins with the nameless man she saw at a bar, she is quick to fall head over heels. Sebastian Walker is a charmer, and he knows it. He has been since his teen years, when he spent most of his time flashing a pearly grin at the girls in the corridor, splashing on dates every other week, and letting them down easy and gentle. He hasn't changed much, and for all of his weekends spent tangled in a different girls bedsheets, he's still never called one back the next morning. Yet, when he's left a mystery girls number in a bar, and her replies are nothing short of uninterested, he cannot help but press send. But is it love at first text, or will the serial dater and the love story singleton be a recipe for disaster? --- #2 in mature, slow burn This book can be read as a stand alone, but character cross overs occur from my first and second book, 'Mr and Mrs Nemesis' and 'In Drunken Matrimony' respectively. Buckle up for the cliches, foul language, and the stuff that means I have to rate this book mature.Complete

Tension in Tandem
Sophia is a driven, fiercely independent editor at a leading publishing house, and her newest client is none other than Lucas, a hotshot author with a reputation for being both brilliant and insufferably arrogant. Their personalities clash from the first meeting: Sophia finds him cocky and careless, while Lucas sees her as overly controlling and dismissive of his creative freedom. Both are equally stubborn, and their disagreements often explode into fiery confrontations. When Lucas's apartment unexpectedly floods, he temporarily moves into a friend's place... which just happens to be next door to Sophia's. Now they're not only forced to work closely together but also see each other outside of work. Tensions rise as they share daily encounters, each one seeming to push them closer to their breaking point-or something else entirely. Encounters turn heated, and their arguments begin to carry a different charge. As they open up to each other in ways they never expected, they find that the line between hate and desire is thinner than they thought. Their fiery arguments morph into equally intense passion, leading them to question if their differences really drove them apart, or if they were what drew them together all along. Will their hate to love relationship help them to overcome the obstacles ahead?Complete
