bittersweet church collegeromance collegestudent faith-in-god fictionalcharacters fleabag forbidden hope love oldermen personal priest rare unrequited

Love was never meant to be part of his vows. But neither was she.

At 20, Celeste Monetessa  never believed in love at first sigh not until she met Father Gabriel Navarro, the revered yet enigmatic Vice President for Religious Affairs at St. Lorenzo University. With his silver-streaked hair, warm laughter, and a presence that drew people in, he was everything she wasn't supposed to want.

For three years, she kept her feelings hidden, content with stolen glances and the way his voice lingered in her mind. But when her quiet admiration starts to feel mutual-when his touch lingers just a second too long, when his gaze holds something deeper than guidance Celeste begins to wonder if some lines are meant to be crossed.

A slow-burn tale of longing, restraint, and a love that defies reason, Between the Cross and My Heart explores the unspoken desires between two souls bound by faith, duty, and the cruel hands of time.

Because love isn't always a choice. And sometimes, the hardest thing to do is to let go.All Rights Reserved

Bound In Secrecy 🚩 by _zero4

Kenny Rae B. Sinclair is a fourth-year college student. Pretty handsome but aloof and prefers to be alone. She has only two friends at school and has no plans to entertain anyone in her life, especially men, because she hates being sugarcoated with meaningless words. She's the perfect daughter and the most beloved person in the family. That's what everyone knows, but behind closed doors, she's just a puppet because she's still young. And she has a secret that she doesn't want others to know, or else people will mob her, and her only remaining peace in life might get qruined by the rumours.

The Playboy's Karma by ro-ughn

Ethios Aniel "Ethan" Del Russo had it all: wealth, charm, and the freedom to live recklessly. As the spoiled heir to a powerful Filipino-Italian family, commitment wasn't part of his vocabulary. Then he met Reagina Anais at a college frat party-a fiery, sharp-tongued woman who slapped him over a misunderstanding before disappearing after one unforgettable night. Five years later, Ethan's carefully controlled life shatters when he finds Reagina again, working as a stripper in an exclusive club. He knows he should stay away, but she's all he can think about. Beneath her defiant smile lies a secret she's desperate to keep-a child Ethan never knew existed.

Ditto Dissonance (Yellow and Mishaps #1) by JosevfTheGreat

[BOYS' LOVE] (REVISED VERSION: MAY 2024) Coffees and pancakes. Teas and waffles. Two people crossed that created ditto but with dissonance. ⋆౨ৎ⋅˚₊‧⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅‧₊˚ ⋅୨ৎ⋆ They say life is about compatibility. When you are paired with someone who matches your personality and follows the same routine as you, that's how connection and, eventually, love bloom. As per Zern Josh Villarama and Victorino Caiden Flynn, it was the opposite. They could replace the definition of ditto. But despite that, they could not get along. Because Caiden hates gays and Zern proudly lists himself on Caiden's hate list. Their hatred for each other grew like a wildfire, because aside from being neighbors in their university's dormitories, they keep seeing each other everywhere. No matter where they go, fate leads them to the same place at the same time. Can enemies, torn by hate, be drawn happily together in the end? Is it possible for two people who despise each other to fall in love despite the odds? How can they fix the dissonance, when their similarities only fuel their hatred? Can two souls, so alike yet torn apart by bitterness, ever find harmony and turn their conflict into something beautiful, something worth fighting for?
