Novels by Maybel Abutar

Magnus Anticlair is a freaking hot model and celebrity. With his irresistible charm, confident aura, and that damn seductive smile, he has never had a problem getting whatever or whoever he wants, until he met Sabrina Kim—the female bouncer who seems completely immune to his charms. Sabrina is the exact opposite of every woman he has ever known. Suplada, matapang, intimidating, at higit sa lahat, hindi impressed sa good looks at celebrity status niya. Mas gusto pa nitong patumbahin siya kaysa pakinggan ang cheesy pickup lines niya. For the first time, he finds himself chasing someone who refuses to be chased. Sabrina may be the only girl who doesn’t want him—but she’s also becoming the only girl he can’t stop wanting. What happens when the biggest flirt meets the one woman who refuses to fall for his charms? Will Magnus finally give up his playboy side and take love seriously for the first time? Or will Sabrina finally give Magnus a chance and risk falling for the man she swore to resist?

Misery has followed Gaia since childhood—her mother lost to a cruel fate, her life spared only by a desperate escape, and a strange mark on her face that brought nothing but endless hardship. Labeled a curse that brought misfortune, she was sent to a dangerous place where only the chosen served as guards. It was a chance to prove herself, but everyone there wanted her dead. As a result, she trusted no one, and survival depended solely on herself. Over time, her emotions vanished, leaving only a coldness that struck fear into her comrades. She was tough, skilled, and fearless, but one thing weakened her—her mark, the very thing that restrained her strength. She tried to uncover the truth behind her mark, but no information could provide answers until Aurus La Mier came into her life. A complete stranger offering help, yet she hesitated, doubting his true intentions. His kindness felt too suspicious, and she could not fully trust him. Could Aurus break through the wall she had built around herself? And if she discovered that her mark held a deeper meaning, would she be able to accept it?
