It's Not All Downhill From Here: A Novel

Sa mata ng buong mundo, si Catherine Adams ang pinakamapalad na babae—minahal, pinrotektahan, at pinangakuan ng habang-buhay ng lalaking pinapangarap ng lahat: si Nolan Martinez. Mula pagkabata hanggang sa proposal na isinahimpapawid sa buong mundo, saksi ang lahat sa tila perpektong pag-iibigan nila. Ngunit sa likod ng matatamis na ngiti at engrandeng singsing, may lihim na pilit niyang nilulunok—ang pagkakanulo ng lalaking minahal niya ng buong puso. Sa bawat "overtime", sa bawat palusot, unti-unting nalaman ni Catherine ang sakit ng katotohanang may ibang babae sa buhay ni Nolan. Kaya’t isang desisyon ang binuo niya: maglaho. Sa mismong araw ng kasal, ang bride na inaasahang pupuno ng altar ay isang “patay” na katauhan. “Wala na kaming kinabukasan.” Ito ang paniniwala ni Catherine, kahit pa sa bawat sulyap ni Nolan ay tila may lambing na totoo. Pero sa isang mundong puno ng kasinungalingan, may lugar pa ba para sa tunay na pagmamahal? Isang kwento ng pagkakanulo, paglimos ng katotohanan, at ang masakit na pagpili—pag-ibig o paghilom?

Iris Glover and Stanley Stein shared seven years together—three of dating and four of marriage. Their relationship unraveled when Stanley chose to believe the homewrecker and prosecuted Iris in court himself. The question, "Do you plead guilty?" shattered Iris' heart. She fought fiercely in court, proved her innocence, and exposed the homewrecker's true nature. Upon her acquittal, she told Stanley, "Let's get a divorce." He replied, "Don't you regret it, Iris," believing she was merely throwing a tantrum. When they crossed paths again, Stanley asked, "Have you come to reconcile?" Iris retorted, "Being so delusional is an illness; seek help." Every time she got mad, she always went back to him once she calmed down, but not this time. It wasn't until Iris emerged as a successful lawyer standing opposite him in court that Stanley realized she had changed; she no longer belonged to him. In a moment of desperation, he pleaded, "Iris, I still love you. Please come back to me." Iris, now strong and resolute, replied, "The reason I improved myself is thanks to you, not for you. Mr. Stein, please step aside; don't stand in my way."

On our fifth anniversary, Alpha Liam gave me nothing more than a simple pack mark of protection. That same night, he held a bonding ceremony with his first love, the she-wolf Seraphina. I refused to accept it. He accused me of being irrational. “My bonding with Seraphina is for the future of the pack, not because I still have feelings for her.” “You’re only human. Shouldn’t my pack’s mark be enough? This was your final test, Elena, and you’ve failed.” I walked away. And he turned around and proposed to Seraphina. Five years later, we met again at an exclusive hotel designated by the Alpha Council. His pack was on the verge of becoming a major power, and he had Seraphina, draped in a moonlight silk gown, on his arm. When he saw me, covered in sand and standing ankle-deep in the hotel’s ornamental fountain, he frowned. “Elena,” he scoffed. “You looked down on my protection back then. Look at you now. I bet you can’t find a single pack in this city willing to take in a human.” “And don’t think this pathetic display will make me take you back.” I ignored him. My cub’s treasured moonstone, a gift he’d found while combing the beach, had slipped into the fountain. The little guy was beside himself, and I had to find his precious amulet.
