"Yes, and I am sure magugustuhan mo siya. Magkakasundo kayo sa mga bagay-bagay, lalo na kung mag sho-shopping ka at pagdating sa mga makeup--" "Babae lang ang mahilig mag shopping at mag makeup dad." Saad ko at napatampal sa noo ko. "I'm gay." Muntik ng malaglag iyong panga ko sa sinabi niya.

BOOK 1: Seducing The Gay CEO BOOK 2: Akitin Ang Fiance Kong Tomboy We already witnessed the cute roller coaster love story of Zachary Villanueva and Gillian Guzman in SEDUCING THE GAY CEO. Pinatawa, pinasaya, at pinaiyak tayo ng STGC, finally the wait is over, mga ka STGC readers, let’s all welcome the story of their son, Earl Zach Villanueva. Earl Zach was now ready to make us feel the butterflies in our stomachs and set the standard. Earl Zach Villanueva, a.k.a. Zacky, is the eldest son of Zachary Villanueva. He gets almost everything he wants in life. At his young age, his father already trusted him with the whole company, but there was a private property island that he wanted to get, but he couldn't get it because it was owned by his dad's friend. So when his father's friend asked for help to let his daughter be engaged with him, he immediately agreed. Zacky doesn't believe in love, so it's not up to him to marry anyone. He has never seen his daughter because she grew up in the province, but the desire to get that island pushed him to do that. Arranging a marriage with that girl is easy, but he is so shocked and challenged at the same time when he hears something about that girl. The person who will be engaging with him is a tomboy. "Seduce her and make her a straight woman, and if you do that, the island you want from Palawan will be yours." Those are the words that his father's friend said to him. Makakaya kaya ni Zacky na gawing tunay na babae ang mapapangasawa niya na isang pusong lalake?

"Ano? Sa tingin mo ba, I’d fall for you if you sweet-talked me?" Anya ni Claire na sinamahan niya pa ng nakakadismayang iling. "I waited for you for five long years, Luke. Five years and now that I am finally over you and dating your best friend," dagdag niyang pailing iling ulit habang unti unting umaatras si Luke sa pader, "—you dare do this to me, wreaking havoc on my emotions? Gago ka ba talaga ha?!" "I can't stop myself. I love you and I won't give you up that easily, Claire. I won't. I can't." "I want you." "You know you can't have me," she murmured and bit her lips, begging him to kiss her. Just kiss the hell out of her para matauhan siya sa kahibangang nararamdaman niya ngayong yakap yakap siya ni Luke. "It’ll be risky if you stay another minute, Claire. Get out now before I lose my mind completely," he murmured between heavy breathing and gazing at her lips. A muscle in his jaw twitched, knowing full well that their close proximity made his blood warm and tingly. God, he wanted this woman so bad. Yes, he wanted her so much that he risked his friendship with Owen. And yes, he was insane for doing so.
