Ang pagmamahal na iniwasan ay siyang pinakamahirap kalimutan… Si Gabriel Navarro ay isang self-made billionaire at CEO ng isang matagumpay na kumpanya, ngunit sa kabila ng lahat ng kanyang tagumpay at yaman, may isang lihim na hindi pa rin niya kayang bitawan—si Sofia Montes, ang unang pag-ibig na iniiwasan niyang muling magmahal. Noong nakaraan, pinili niyang iwan si Sofia, iniisip na mas mahalaga ang kanyang negosyo kaysa sa pusong may sugat. Ngunit sa kanilang muling pagkikita, sa loob ng kanyang kumpanya, muling nabuhay ang mga damdamin na akala niyang matagal nang namatay. Si Sofia, ngayon ay isang malaya at matagumpay na babae, ay hindi na ang dating dalaga. May mga sugat na rin siya mula sa kanilang nakaraan.

Habang nagsisimula silang magkasama muli, isang malupit na lihim ang unti-unting lumalabas: si Gabriel ay may malubhang sakit na hindi niya kayang pagdaanan mag-isa. Lihim na siyang nahihirapan at wala pang lakas na aminin kay Sofia na ang bawat araw ay nagiging labanan sa buhay. Ngunit ang takot niyang mawala si Sofia ng hindi nila nasasabi ang mga bagay na hindi nila kailanman natapos, ay nagsisilbing pinakamabigat na hamon ng kanyang buhay. Puwede bang magtagumpay ang pagmamahal nilang nagsimula sa mga unang taon ng kanilang buhay? O magiging alaala na lamang ito, tulad ng ulan na tinatangay ng hangin?

Ciara thought her relationship with Austin, her boyfriend of six years, had always been solid and full of love. But on the night before their wedding, she caught him and her young stepmother doing something unspeakable. The shock of the moment shattered her heart, yet she didn’t confront them. Rather, she found herself making out with Rowan, the older brother and sworn rival of Austin. The next day, she went through the ceremony confidently, only to humiliate her cheating fiancé by not saying ‘I do’ before leaving him at the altar. As a result, Ciara’s father got enraged and even dismissed her claim of her stepmother’s affair without a second thought. As if that wasn’t enough, she got kicked out of the company. With nowhere left to turn, she sought out Rowan and accepted his offer of an alliance, fueled by a desperate need for revenge against everyone who wronged her. Ciara knew exactly how dangerous Rowan could be. She was well aware of his obsession, his psychopathic behavior, and the risks that came with trusting a man like him. Still, vengeance was all she had left to her name. And if it meant making a deal with the devil and surrendering herself to his darkness, then she would do it, no matter the cost.

Everyone thinks Jimmy Hudson, my college roommate, is the typical brutally honest and socially clueless guy who just has zero filter sometimes. A friend and I meet up to go boxing and practice our hooks, but he calls it a hookup when texting the group chat about it. He even nonchalantly says he won't be deleting his message. When I meet my boxing buddy, he says I'm meeting my hookup buddy. He even has the nerve to say, "It's just a joke. Don't be overly sensitive and read so much into it." Thanks to a few more of his dirty tricks, my reputation is ruined, and the entire class ostracizes me. But Jimmy doesn't stop there. He slips sleeping pills into my drink, which leads me to miss an exam. Later, he claims it was just a careless mistake and blames it on his scatterbrained tendencies. Eventually, he dumps crushed cherry pits into my water bottle, which ends up poisoning me to death. This all happened because our campus belle, whom he has a crush on, helped me with my luggage on our first day on campus. All of a sudden, my eyes open again. I've returned to the first day of my freshman year at college. This time, I'm going to let Jimmy get a taste of what it's like to have his life ruined with a helping of some social cluelessness of my own.

We’re preparing to move into a new house, and when my husband’s best female friend found out, she decided to move in with us. I was about to object, but my husband immediately agreed. To make things worse, he even gave my daughter’s master bedroom, which was meant to be her children’s room, to her son and made our daughter move to the basement. When I voiced my disagreement, he dismissed it, saying, “Grace is my close friend; don’t overthink it. Her son is like my son; of course, I want him to have a better room.” When I still stood my ground, my husband and his family began criticizing me, calling me selfish. Unable to stand their unfairness, I moved out with my daughter. It was then they realized my absence and became anxious.

"I may be blind, Rain, but trust me, I’ll never miss the right hole or the perfect positions to put you in. My eyes don’t stop me from taking you until your legs give out. Open wide for me, wifey." Enzo Salvatore DeLuca, the ruthless billionaire mafia don, was untouchable—until the accident that stole his sight. Now, with time running out, he needs an heir to secure his legacy, and Rain is forced to take her stepsister's place as his bride. Rain always dreamed of a Christmas wedding with the perfect husband, but marrying a blind stranger wasn’t in her fantasies. How could a man who couldn’t see fulfill her wildest desires? He’d need help with everything, and she couldn’t imagine how he’d live up to the man she’d always fantasized about. What she doesn’t know is that he sees every move she makes, from the constant bite of her lips whenever he talks, to the way she walks around naked in the room, thinking he wouldn’t see her anyway, down to the way she watches him with longing whenever he’s changing. What he lacks in sight, he makes up for in raw intensity, dominance, and an ability to give her everything she never dared to ask for. He doesn’t do love. He doesn’t do gentle. But with Rain, he might just find more than the healing he never thought possible, and the revenge he had been seeking. "If you ask me, the only reason I need eyes is to see your eyes rolling back when I fuck you. But for now, baby girl, I want to hear it. Let me hear you moan for me.”
