Adrianna Leigh Lim has always lived by the plan-draw the lines, follow the design, and never go beyond what's certain. Para sa kanya, everything in life should be measured-just like the plates she drafts as a third-year architecture student. Walang puwang para sa kalat, sa gulo, o sa mga bagay na walang direksyon.
Then came Lance Sebastian De Vera-a fine arts student who believes that not everything needs to be perfect. For him, art is supposed to be messy, unpredictable, and full of life. The complete opposite of everything Dria stands for.
One night filled with colors and noise at an art exhibit brought the two together. It should've been just a simple accident, but something was left behind-not just a stain of wine, but a connection neither of them could explain.
He paints beyond the lines.
She lives within them.
Pero hanggang saan kaya sila dadalhin ng mundo kung saan nagtatagpo ang plano at pagkakamali, ang linya at kulay, ang istruktura at emosyon? Because sometimes, the most beautiful things happen the moment you dare to step beyond the lines.

One Night With Mr. Moncuedo
NOTE: STRICTLY FOR MATURE AUDIENCES (18+). One Night With Mr. Moncuedo Dapat siya ang boss ko... hindi ang pinakamalaking pagkakamali ko. Hindi in-expect ni Maria Isabella Dimasali na isang gabing lasing ang magbabago ng lahat. Ang gusto lang niya ay makasurvive sa toxic na trabaho, iwasan ang boss niyang parang dragon, at baka makakain ng dinner bago siya mawalan ng lakas. Pero nung makita niya ang CEO niyang si Denrick Moncuedo na lasing at mahina, nagbago ang lahat. Isang halik, naging dalawa. Isang haplos, naging hindi na matigil. At ganun na lang... natagpuan niya ang sarili sa kama kasama ang boss niya. Wild. Hindi malilimutan. Mali. Pero ang pinakamasaklap? Tinawag siya ni Denrick na Denise. Ngayon, nasa isang masalimuot na web ng passion, power, at isang pangalang hindi kanya, kailangan ni Maria magdesisyon-umiwas na lang bago pa siya lumalim, o ipagsapalaran lahat para sa isang lalaki na baka hindi siya makita bilang higit pa sa isang one-night stand.Complete

But when two different worlds start to collide - between deadlines, laughter, and late-night talks - they'll realize that sometimes, love isn't something you plan... it's something you build. 💛 A college romance that will make you smile, ache, and believe in timing. 📘 "Blueprints of Us" - where every line, every sketch, and every heartbeat tells a story.
Whispers of Dawn
Can it be possible? Na kahit anong pigil mo na iwasan siya ay tila mas lalo kang hinihila papalapit sakanya. That is certaily something Thaliana Rue Alcaraz can't deny, a second year chemistry student, top of her department, and known to be hands off for everyone. Klaro na ito para sa lahat. Not until Kaiser Rhys Solano, a third year architecture student, blatantly announced that he was interested in her. Wala siyang pakialam. She doesn't care if he showed his smile, acted like he cared, and gave her all the attention a girl could ever want. Lagi niyang sinasabi sa sarili na hanggang doon na lang iyon. She hated being in his spotlight. But what if the breeze suddenly shifted its wind? Na parang nag-iba ang direksiyon nito? She started noticing even the smallest details about him. He had become the echo she couldn't silence, the warmth that slowly broke through her carefully built walls. She was starting to accept his presence. She was about ready to surrendering to his light and surviving the shadows that came with it. But destisty said otherwise. It had given her a glimpse of light, only to remind her it was never hers. It shattered the bridge she was finally willing to cross. And yet, dawn never stays still - it always whispers change, sometimes too soon, sometimes too late.

At paano kung yung rule na matagal niyang pinanghawakan... siya mismo ang unang babaliin? Sometimes, falling is the last thing you want- but the only thing you need.Complete

Embracing the Dark (PSYCH SERIES #1)
I refuse to look at the world positively. For me, walang kwenta ang mundo. It's meaningless and full of agony. It's dark and colorless. I don't see the point in living a life that's full of hatred and pain. I hated the world, not until I met him. When I met him, my monochromatic life started to have colors. Yellow for happiness, gray for sadness, and red for hatred and pain. I started to feel something and he was the only one who made me feel that way. With him by my side, my world became lively. He became my yellow, and he made my world meaningful. - I don't have all the good things in life. I don't think I ever have. I was always alone with my own thoughts. I refused to see the good things in life, not until I met her. Her eyes lit up the entire place the moment I saw her. My lifeless life started blooming because of her. I knew from then I have found the reason to see the good things life can offer me. I started to hope for the better. While staring at her glistening eyes, I hoped I could be better for her. She became the reason for my joy and changed how I perceived the world. . GENRE: Romance, Adventure, Young Adult.
