Britney Kaye Dela Paz is the life of every party-fierce, fearless, and unapologetically wild. With a cocktail in hand and rebellion in her veins, she lives for the thrill of nightlife and the freedom it brings. But when her reckless choices catch up with her, her influential parents give her an ultimatum: spend the summer in the quiet province under the strict supervision of her mysterious step-uncle, or lose everything.
Reymond Dela Paz-disciplined, intimidating, and ruled by structure. A man of few words but strong presence, Rey lives by order and demands respect. Britney's chaos is the last thing he wants under his roof, but a promise is a promise.
Thrown into a world of early mornings, hard labor, and house rules, Britney fights to keep her spark alive while Rey tests every limit she's ever known. But as tension turns to chemistry, and challenges become moments of unexpected connection, Britney begins to question if taming her wild side might not mean losing herself-but finding something even deeper.
She's used to breaking hearts. He's used to drawing lines. But in this game of fire and discipline, who's really in control?
(After High Series # 3) Lily Delphine Borromeo came to UPLB to build a life that was entirely hers-until Sandro Cantavieja decided to follow her there.
She never questioned why her childhood friend chose the same university instead of staying in Seattle. She never asked why he looked at her like that. She was too busy pretending they were just friends.
But some truths refuse to stay buried, and some feelings become impossible to ignore.
Lily has spent her whole life avoiding complications, taking the safe path, running from anything that might disrupt the carefully constructed world she's built. Sandro has spent years being patient, waiting for her to stop running.
When their fragile balance finally shatters, Lily learns that hiding from problems doesn't make them disappear-it makes them explode. And sometimes the thing you're most afraid of losing is the only thing worth fighting for.
