"Hindi ako magbo-boyfriend. Hindi ako iiyak sa lalaki. At lalong hindi ako magpapakatanga sa love."
That's Eli's rule. After seeing her friends fall apart because of boys, she promised herself she'd stay focused. No distractions, no commitments, no heartbreak. Sa umaga, confident siya na kaya niyang panindigan 'yon. Pero sa gabi, may mga tanong na hindi niya kayang sagutin.
"Bakit sila meron tapos ako wala?"
"Lord, kailan kaya ako?"
"Meron ba talagang nakatadhana para sa'kin?"
Then one ordinary day, life did what it always does - binasag yung plano niya.
She met him.
The type of guy you'd swear only exists in books. Tall, smart, clean-cut, gwapo, mysterious, and checks every box she swore no one could ever tick off. Pasok sa standards. Too good to be true. And way, way out of her league. Kaya kahit napansin niya, she shut it down real quick. "Hindi ako 'yan. Hindi ko story 'to."
But fate moves quietly. And sometimes, the people you never thought were looking... were watching you all along.
Strings of Fate
Some connections are invisible. Until they pull you closer.
Cameron Cole has a plan.
After yet another relationship ends because of certain shortcomings-literally-Cameron decides it's time to swear off dating and focus her energy into her junior year at the University of Charlotte. There's an internship up for grabs and there's no way she's letting that slip through her fingers. But then she's goes and makes one impulsive mistake that changes everything.
Wesley Reed has it all.
As the golden boy of the Charlotte Colts football team, he's got the talent, the looks, and a future so bright it's practically blinding. Girls throw themselves at him, professors let things slide, and the world bends to his will.
But when a required freshmen paper threatens his eligibility, the two are brought together in a sick twist of academic fate. Cameron can't get him out of her head and Wesley isn't making it any easier with his cocky smirk and insistent charm. Their arrangement teeters on the edge of disaster as unresolved tension and late-night study sessions give way to a steamy, no-strings-attached deal.
But in the game of love and lust, someone always has to loose-and the stakes have never been higher.
