CIRCLE OF FRIENDS SERIES #1
Analain "Ayen" Balinger is also an extrovert in their circle of friends- a total social butterfly who's known by many for her fun personality and witty mind.
For years, Ayen chose discipline over distraction, pouring everything into volleyball with one goal in mind: to join in Philippine Volleyball league. Love was never in her plans; she believed it would only be a distraction.
But now that her dream is finally within her grasp, can she ignore the man who has been silently cheering her on from the sidelines? Or will the rumors about him and her own teammate make her question if his support was ever truly hers?

Hues of Love
Have you ever experienced being in a situation na para bang biglang tumigil ang mundo sa hindi inaasahan na pagkakataon? Like, it was your first time seeing that person up close. Hindi na maalis sa isip mo ang itsura at kulay ng buhok niya. Ultimo postura niya ay nakabisado mo agad pati nga ata ang pabango niya alam mo na. Amora Louisse Javier, a consistent honor student sa Psychology department. She's not into sports mas gamay niya ang online gaming kesa sa mga bola. A first born daughter, independent, and needs to prove herself everyday. She's the bunso of her barkada kaya grabe ang alaga at pangbabakod sa kanya. But, everything turns upside down when someone unknowingly catches her attention during the Civil Engineering Week. So, when the stars finally aligned for her. She didn't waste any seconds. Sabi nga nila, kapag nanjan na grab the chance! Pero ang motto niya, slow burn dapat ang atake. With him, the surroundings are golden like the sunsets every afternoon. Sometimes, it's red that symbolizes the love she has for him. And, yellow because of the happiness he brought in her life.

For she was merely a seventeen year-old scholar, acquiring a full-ride to Stanford University under the pretences of being an elite tennis player. Alaska had been brought up by two of Canada's biggest socialites, both of which took the art of tennis rather seriously. All she had ever known. Sheltered from the rest of the world, raised in a bubble materialised of textbooks and tennis - there were only two things she did know for certain; One - She was an incredible tennis player. For she would be perceived a failure if she were anything but. And Two, Art Donaldson was an excellent kisser. ˚. ✦.˳·˖✶ ⋆.✧̣̇˚. ⋆｡𖦹°⭒˚｡⋆ ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ- 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓: 22/06/24 #1 in MIKE FAIST #1 in PATRICK ZWEIG #1 in TASHI DUNCAN #1 in YEARNING #1 in ATHLETE #2 in TENNIS #2 in ATHLETICS #3 in CHALLENGERS #3 in ART DONALDSON

SLOW BURN ENEMIES TO LOVERS BEST FRIENDS BROTHER Aaliyah is your passionate artist fresh out of college with grades to pursue anything - but not the heart. When her family falls apart chaos, neglect and new family members become too overwhelming for someone trying to find herself. So, Aaliyah takes a gap year needing to be anywhere but home. She plans to move and stay with her best friend at least until she knows what she is doing. But things don't end up going as planned when Aaliyah and her best friend are sent to stay with Dylan, her best friend's older brother and the last person she wants to see. Dylan is cocky, charming and the reason she lost her art school dream - whether he knows it or not. A star quarterback with a solid career lined up and panty dropping looks, Dylan has it all or so it seems. In the headspace of trying to figure out why he feels lost, the last thing he needs is to babysit his sister and her fire-breathing best friend. Aaliyah hates his unaccountability and corniness. He can't figure out why she always side eyes him. What neither of them expect is their inability to stop bickering at each other and that tension that can turn into something else.
Some love never really leaves. Soretta thought she was done with Devon. He thought he could forget her. But fate has other plans. A glance. A word. A memory that won't fade. Sparks ignite slowly, secrets linger in the shadows, and hearts ache with the weight of what was left unfinished.
