Hirap O Sarap Scandal

Aceia Louise Christenson was living her life to the fullest. She was using her family wealth to live her lavish life, but that ended when she got into a scandal: "You were kissing a married man. What were you thinking? I didn't raise you as a family wrecker." That was what her father said, and she knew that she was doomed. But what makes her feel more wretched is when she hears about her father's decision. "You need to marry Hudson Blake Vasco—" In other words, she needed to get married to a stranger in order to clear her name. She knew that doing that would cost her freedom. Would she allow it to happen or just run away? Hudson Blake Vasco was the successor of the Vasco chain of hotels and Rixco Wine enterprises; he was bound to marry Aceia Louise Christenson as per his father's order. He doesn't have a choice but to obey because of what he did two years ago. But the question is, would Hudson tie the knot to a woman who only brings a bad image to her family's name or just think of another way? What will happen if the two meet? Would it be romantic or a disaster? What if what happened two years ago happened again but was even worse?  

Si Merlyn Claveria Santiago, isang 28 taong gulang na OFW sa Dubai, ay kilala sa kanyang sipag at sakripisyo para sa kanyang pamilya. Sa kabila ng hirap ng trabaho at lumbay ng pangungulila, nanatili siyang tapat sa kanyang kasintahang naiwan sa Pilipinas. Ngunit isang araw, ang kanyang mundo’y gumuho nang malaman niyang nabuntis ng kanyang nobyo ang bunsong kapatid na 18 taong gulang lamang. Labis ang sakit ng pagtataksil, lalo na’t itinago ito sa kanyang mga magulang upang hindi maapektuhan ang perang ipinapadala niya buwan-buwan. Sa hinanakit at kawalang pag-asa, iniwan ni Merlyn ang kanyang pamilya at lumayo. Habang naglalakad, napadpad siya sa isang simbahan kung saan nagaganap ang isang kasalan—isang kasalan na nauwi sa eskandalo nang tuklasin ng lalaking ikakasal na pinagtaksilan siya ng kanyang kasintahan. Sa isang di-inaasahang pagkakataon, nilapitan si Merlyn ng ina ng lalaking iniwan sa altar. Isang alok ang binitiwan: pakasalan ang kanyang anak upang mailigtas ang pamilya nila sa kahihiyan. Dahil sa galit sa mundo at pagnanais na makalimot, tinanggap ni Merlyn ang kasunduan. Ngunit ang kanyang pinasok na kasal ay hindi basta-basta. Ang lalaking kanyang pinakasalan ay si Crisanto "Cris" Montereal, isang bilyonaryo na may makapangyarihang impluwensya at mga negosyo sa iba't ibang panig ng mundo. Sa likod ng kanilang kunwaring pagsasama, unti-unting masusubok ang kanilang damdamin, at mahuhulog sila sa komplikadong laro ng pag-ibig, paghihiganti, at mga lihim na pilit nilang tinatakasan. Makakahanap kaya si Merlyn ng kapayapaan sa piling ng isang lalaking puno ng galit sa pag-ibig? At mapapatawad kaya niya ang mga taong minsang sumira sa kanyang tiwala? O tuluyan siyang magpapatalo sa mga sugat ng kahapon?

Do I have two wolves inside of me? Check. Smokin' hot two fated mates? Double check. Except they despise each other more than anyone hates Mondays. Dating one means war with the other. But the chemistry? It's off the freaking charts with both. Here's the kicker: my dual wolf curse turns me into a male at night and a female during the day. Reason is; apparently, my Umbra Wolf is male and my Luna Wolf is female. Eighteen is when they are fully awakened and also when shit gets real. Worse, no one told me about this until I turned eighteen and found out myself! A psycho rogue is after me too, and the only way to avoid him is to find my fated mate at the mating ceremony which I am mandated to attend by the Alpha council because of a scandal I accidentally caused. How does one pick between her stepbrother and his enemy? Especially when one is cruel and the other is chillingly creepy. Catch me dodging love triangles, fighting destiny, and maybe getting my heart broken by two hotties at the same time. P.S. If you're into dark romance, reverse harem, suspense that'll keep you guessing, and enough spice to heat up your phone, then buckle up, ‘cause Nimue La Key and her two mates are about to blow your mind.

Nanganganib na mawalan ng trabaho si Chrissa dahil sa papalugi na ang kompanyang kanyang pinapasukan. Isa siya sa mga nagsusulat para sa isang magazine na sa bawat labas ng bagong edition ay laging mababa ang benta. She doesn't want to lose her job. All she needs to do is to write something that would catch everyone's attention and urge them to buy their next magazine issue. She needs to find someone whom she can feature on her next article... someone like— Trace Dela Serna. Trace is a well-known businessman. Kilalang-kilala ito dahil sa yamang mayroon ang pamilya nito. Laman din ng mga balita noon ang lalaki dahil sa kinasangkutang kontrobersiya ilang taon na ang nakararaan. Namatay sa isang engkuwentro ang kasintahan nito at walang sino man ang nakaaalam kung ano ang dahilan ng barilang naganap. Naniniwala si Chrissa na gumamit ng koneksiyon at yaman ang mga Dela Serna upang hindi malaman ng media ang dahilan ng mga nangyari. Ni walang nagtagumpay na makuhanan ito ng panayam. At iyon ang gusto niyang magawa— si Trace ang nais niyang maging paksa sa sunod na article na kanyang isusulat. Kung sakaling maisiwalat niya ang dahilan ng pagkamatay ng kasintahan nito, baka sakaling tumaas ang kita nila. She thought it would be easy, pero hirap siyang makapanayam ang kampo ng binata. Dahilan iyon para mag-isip siya ng ibang paraan upang makalapit dito at makakuha ng mga impormasyon— Chrissa applied as Mat-Mat's nanny, ang limang taong gulang na anak ni Trace. Magagawa niya bang alamin ang sikretong nakabalot sa pagkatao ni Trace? Will she be able to make him agree for an interview? O sadyang siya ang mahihirapang makasama ang binata sa iisang bubong dahil sa pag-uugaling mayroon ito? Can she ever tame... his stone heart?
