Two people.

One plan.

A twist of fate.

A not-so-typical modern day fairytale that can happen to two people when they think that they've got it all planned out. 

On the outside, Alex Lizares seems like the prototype of a bad boy – reckless, egocentric, and roguish. Bequeathed with amazing looks and incredible sex appeal, he can charm his way out of anything. But is there more to Alex than meets the eye? Is a vulnerable and caring man just hiding behind that façade?

People see Drei Buenaventura as the perfect example of the modern woman – independent, resilient and confident. Having faced a lot of struggles in the past including losing the love of her life, Drei is convinced that she can already handle anything. However, is she really as tough as she seems? Can she play with fire and not get scorched?

All he wanted is to have fun and live his life to the fullest…not caring if he broke a few hearts along the way.

All she wished for was a break from her seemingly boring life...to feel alive again.

In a dangerous game where their hearts are at stake, who will emerge victorious and who will crash and burn?

Breaking rules and breaking hearts. Can they play the game?

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.
