Jessie, a senior college student in her early 20s, supported her boyfriend, Calvin, believing in his basketball dreams - until betrayal shattered her world. Her father, Joffrey Fitzpatrick, the country's Greatest Basketball Player of All Time, had offered him a guaranteed professional league spot on one cruel condition: to break up with his daughter. Though she accepted her fate, she was still bitter towards her father for interfering with her personal life and for leaving her and her mother while he sought greater success in the basketball world.
Desperate for a fresh start, Jessie transferred to her father's rival university, where she met Lenard-different, kind, and fiercely supportive. With him, Jessie rediscovered her love for the game and dared to dream again. Together, they chased greatness until history repeated itself. Like Calvin, she was let down by the man she thought was her MVP. It felt like the entire world was conspiring against her, from her relationship with her dad to her career to her relationship with Lenard.
Her heart yearns to fight for Lenard, but when another opportunity comes along, she fears she will fall into the same trap as her father, relying on success for happiness and abandoning everyone along the way.
Now, she must decide whether to choose her greatest dream or her greatest love.

Only Exception (UNDER REVISION)
For Maria Jessi, love isn't a fairy tale-it's a foreign language she never learned to speak. Growing up in a "perfect" family held together by the cold glue of duty and a perfectionist grandmother's iron will, Jessi learned early on that marriage is a transaction and affection is conditional. With a mother who stayed silent and a father who simply vanished, she carries a past marked by mistakes and the heavy label of an "ungrateful child." To her, the idea of a soulmate is a myth sold to people who haven't seen the ugly truth behind closed doors. Then there's Elijah. As the best friend of her uncle, he should have been just another face in her family's curated social circle, but one look changed the script. Elijah is the man who sees the cracks in Jessi's armor and chooses to love the jagged edges instead of trying to sand them down. But Elijah carries his own twisting shadows, a past that makes him as dangerous as he is devoted. In a world where love has always been a duty to fulfill, Jessi has to wonder: is Elijah truly the "Only Exception" to her family's cycle of misery? Or will the cost of their survival be the one price even he can't afford to pay?
You, I, And Our Guarded Heart
"How do you know he's not lying?" She asked as her right brow raised. "His eyes... it doesn't know how to lie," I replied. "What's with his eyes?" She asked, "Sincerity." I paused, - Tanya, a sharp-witted and guarded English major, never believed in second chances-especially not when it came to boys who wore confidence like cologne. After being strung along by a guy who still had one foot in his past, she built walls around herself, reinforced by the no-nonsense voices of her fiercely loyal friends. Then came Sky. Confident. Effortless. And absolutely off-limits. He was everything Tanya told herself to avoid: popular, persistent, and dangerously charming. But during the school's annual sportsfest, something about him caught her off guard. Maybe it was the way he looked at her like she wasn't just another pretty face in the crowd. Or maybe it was the fact that her friends, usually her protectors, were suddenly too involved in something they wouldn't explain. There was a deal. A secret. A dare, maybe. And Tanya was at the center of it, whether she liked it or not. In a whirlwind of chants, crowds, and quiet glances across the court, Tanya finds herself questioning everything. Because falling for someone is already hard-but falling for someone who might be pretending? That's a game she swore she'd never play again. >> Language used: Tagalog - English >> Credits to the real owner of the story cover, and pictures used in the story! ♡Complete
