Her Sweet Escape by dimenaG

Cyd Solarez, an Architect under a well-known company, had to do anything to avoid Rogue, her childhood best friend-slash-sweetheart, when they met again after he cheated on her years ago. It was a simple plan. To stay away from the man who made her question herself including her worth even after making her feel the happiest woman alive. To never talk to him again because memories from the past will only make her suffer more. It will just haunt her. She was very sure of that. "This is Harry, my boyfriend," she lied when her plan to escape from her past did not work at first. She was aware that it would just complicate things, but she was too desperate. Too desperate to even use her boss and make him pretend as her lover. It was an impulsive move, but she really wanted to run away. When she realized that her decision was wrong, it was already too late. How can she evade having feelings for the second time around when he could make her heart skip a beat every single time his eyes darted at her? How can she not notice the heat flowing through her veins because of his delicate yet dangerous touches and aggressive kisses that slowly melted the walls she built for herself? But what will happen when her only escape locks her up again with pain and regret?

Tempted to Touch by vampiremims

Lean De Guzman has long since wanted to free herself from living in the shadow of her more competent and trusted twin brother.

With Theon's playboy reputation, showing their families and friends that they're better together than apart seems to be a challenge. Can they fight for a love that may ultimately tear their families apart? DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish. COVER DESIGN: Regina Dionela
