It Tastes Time

Eight years ago, Elara Reyes walked away from the boy she thought she would marry.

Not because she stopped loving him.

Because she finally learned how to love herself.

Since then, she has spent years building a life she can call her own-successful, independent, and seemingly content. Whenever people ask why she's still single, she tells them she's not ready.

It's a lie she's repeated so often she almost believes it.

Then fate begins playing tricks.

First comes the memory of Noah Villareal-the boy she met during her board exam review, the almost-love who disappeared before their story could begin.

Then comes Caden Navarro-the man who storms into her carefully organized world and makes her question everything she thought she wanted.

Just when Elara begins opening her heart again, Noah returns.

Suddenly, she finds herself caught between a love that never happened and a love that's happening now.

But time has a taste of its own.

And sometimes, the right person arrives at the wrong time.

Sometimes, the wrong person teaches you exactly what love should be.

And sometimes, the greatest love story isn't about finding someone.

It's about finding your way back to yourself.
