Avionna Isabella Romero has always carried the weight of her world. Bilang isang panganay, maabilidad at matalinong nursing student, she's willing to sacrifice her dreams-and her heart-for the sake of her family. But in the quiet corners of her youth, she found solace in one person: Hugo Theodore Ruiz, a brooding yet magnetic criminology student who saw through her armor. Until he shattered her. Limang taon ang lumipas, bumalik sya sa Pilipinas bilang isang ganap na doctor, her heart fortified by scars and secrets-including the son Hugo never knew he had. She's built a life of control, far from the chaos of her past. But fate has a cruel sense of timing. Isang military medical mission ang kanyang sinalihan. Her goal is to help the local people, but little did she know she would meet the man who once broke her heart. Now a powerful Lieutenant General and CEO, Hugo is no longer the impulsive boy she loved-but he's still the man who makes her heart race and her walls tremble. As old wounds resurface and long-buried truths claw their way into the light, Avionna must choose: protect the life she's built, or risk everything for a love that refuses to stay buried. Secrets. Sacrifice. Second chances. When the past comes home, will love be enough to heal what was broken?

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
