To him, relationships are transactions, and trust is a liability he cannot afford. That is, until Elena Reyes enters his life.

Against all odds, Alexander finds himself falling deeply in love, risking everything for a future he never thought he wanted. But love in Alexander’s world comes with a price.

I sat at the table, watching the food grow cold, much like my heart. Today was my birthday. It was also Leslie Buck's birthday—Katherine White's childhood sweetheart. I unlocked my phone and opened Leslie's social media page. As expected, a new post awaited me. "Grateful to have you by my side for every birthday. Let's keep our promise to celebrate every one of them together in the future!" The photo showed two hands forming a heart in front of a cake. One of them was Katherine's. I could tell from the bracelet she wore. It was the one I had given her. I gave the post a like, then set my phone aside. Without hesitation, I dumped the dishes Katherine liked into the trash and went out to a restaurant to order the food I liked, celebrating my birthday alone. From now on, I would make sure to enjoy every birthday of mine.

Isang pusong nakakulong sa obligasyon at isang pusong puno ng ambisyon ang pagtatagpuin ng isang misyon. Walang ibang bagay ang mahalaga ngayon kay Kiro Verona bukod sa matagal na niyang pangarap sa buhay, iyon ay ang sumikat ang bandang binuo niya at ang mga kantang gagawin nila. One day, a great opportunity came to him when his cousin, Nathalia Fernandez, offer him a good deal and that is to help him to get into the talent agency where she belongs to. But unexpectedly, her help is not for free. She wants Kiro to do something first for her. Pinanghihinalaan kasi nito na bading ang kaniyang boyfriend na si Nikkolai Froy Servantes—the problematic and introvert mayor of La Castellion. Kaya ang gusto ni Nathalia ay akitin niya ito kung paano niya akitin ang kaniyang mga babae hanggang sa lumabas ang tunay nitong kulay. But what if the waves of love will change the beat of their hearts? Can they still get up when they are already fallen madly, deeply inlove?

At 4:30 in the morning, my husband answered a call from his ex-girlfriend and accidentally put it on speaker. "Jason, my daughter, Alison, has a fever—over 104. I can't get a ride..." The sudden sound of sobbing jolted me awake. Jason hurriedly turned off the speaker and lowered his voice. "Send me your location. I'll come right away." It seemed he had forgotten that today was my first prenatal checkup.

Minahal ko siya sa kabila nang malamig niyang trato sa akin, ngunit sa huli ay parang basura niya lang kung itapon ako sa pagbabalik ng kaniyang unang pag-ibig. Pero hindi ako papayag na mauwi sa wala ang mga araw na natitira sa akin. Hindi mo na ako maaangking muli, President Riego!

Buong akala ni Amara, dahil sa mabait at mabuti siyang asawa ay makukuntento sa kaniya ang kaniyang asawa, ngunit sa kabila ng pagiging isang mabuting asawa nito ay nagawa pa rin siyang lokohin at paulit-ulit na saktan at patayin ang puso ng kaniyang pinakamamahal na asawa. Pinag tagpo ng tadhan ang landas ng dalawa sa isang sikat na Unibersidad sa sa kalakhang Maynila at pareho silang nag-aaral bilang College student. Si Amara ay transferee na freshman, habang in-coming graduated student naman si Andrew na heartthrob sa campus at kilalang numero unong playboy at mapag laro ng damdamin ng babae. Dahil na rin sa nababalitaan ni Amara sa ibang kapwa mag-aaral tungkol kay Andrew, pinangako niya sa sarili na hinding hindi mahuhulog ang loob niya sa lalaking 'yon. Kaya naman sa tuwing nakakasalubong niya ang lalaki para na lang siyang sinisilaban sa galit kaya parati niyang binabara ang lalaki at walang araw na dadaan na hindi sila magba bangayan. Hindi rin maintindihan ni Andrew kung bakit ganoon ang dalaga sa kaniya sa tuwing magkikita sila sa hallway o kahit saang parte ng paaralan. Para siyang dragona na magbubuga ng apoy ng anumang oras, pero sa iba napaka bait ng pakikitungo nito, taliwas ng pinapakita nitong ugali sa kaniya. Parati itong naka singhal at kino kontra ang mga gusto niya. Ngunit sakabila ng lahat naging masigasig sa panliligaw si Andrew sa dalaga, sa kabila ng lahat pinakita niya at pinatunayan sa babae na karapat dapat siya dito ngunit sadyang mailap talaga ito sa kaniya. Hanggang sa nag bunga ang panunuyo nito at nakuha ang matamis na OO nito. Ngunit ang masayang pagsasama ng dalawa ay may ka akibat na kalungkutan. Sa pagpasok ni Madison, ano kayang papel nito sa buhay nila. Siya ba ay isang kaibigan o mortal na karibal???

Sa edad na diyese-nuwebe ay nagpakasal si Liza kay Midnight, ang bilyonaryong binili ang lupaing pamana ng yumao niyang lolo. Subalit tila naging masikip ang mundo niya sa piling nito. Ni hindi siya maituring na asawa ni Midnight. Kasing lamig ng yelo ang puso nito, ayaw ng atensiyon. Gusto na niya itong sukuan kahit nasanay na ang puso niya rito. Ngunit isang gabi ay umuwi ito at sinugod siya sa kuwarto, hinalikan at inangkin. At dahil sa kapusukan, nagparaya siya. Inakala ni Liza na mamahalin na siya ni Midnight pagkatapos ng gabing pinagsaluhan nila. Ngunit bigla sila nitong inalok ng sampung milyon kapalit ng divorce. Labag man sa kalooban ngunit pumayag siya. Subalit sa kaniyang pag-alis ay nagimbal siya sa natuklasan. Nagbunga ang gabing pagniniig nila ng dating asawa! Hahabulin ba niya ang karapatan, o ililihim ang katotohanan?

Limang taon na ang nakalipas mula nang talikuran ni Nica Mendoza ang lalaking minahal niya higit pa sa sariling buhay. Sa kapalit ng limang milyong piso—at isang pangakong ililigtas ang kanyang ina—iniwan niya si Rafael Watson, ang nag-iisang lalaking pinangarap niyang makasama habang-buhay. Ngunit ang kapalit ng kanyang sakripisyo ay hindi kapayapaan… kundi impiyernong walang tigil. Ngayo’y muli silang nagtagpo—ngunit hindi bilang magkasintahan, kundi bilang amo at kasambahay. Si Rafael, ang ngayon ay tinaguriang Cold Billionaire, ay walang ni katiting na init ng damdamin sa kanyang mga mata. Sa bawat titig, bawat utos, at bawat sarkastikong ngiti niya, ramdam ni Nica ang galit... ang hinanakit... at ang pagnanasang tila hindi nawala sa kabila ng taon. Sa loob ng apat na pader ng marangyang mansion, isang mapanganib na laro ng damdamin ang magsisimula. Isang larong puno ng pagsisisi, pagkakaila, at mga lihim na matagal nang ibinaon sa limot. Pero paano kung ang larong ito ay muling mag-alab—mas mainit, mas delikado, at mas makasalanan? Sa pagitan ng galit at pagnanasa, alin ang pipiliin—ang paglimot o ang muling pagtikim sa isang bawal na pagmamahalan?
