(Game Series # 1) For as long as Katherine could remember, Juan Alexandro Yuchengco has always been her dream guy.

She made sure that he's aware of her presence... and thankfully, her efforts paid off. Finally, Jax was looking her way. But life is never simple. Life is a game. It's either you win or you lose. It's either you get it all or you lose it all. Kapag akala mong nandyan na, biglang mawawala pala. Kapag akala mong iyon na, may iba pa pala. But how will she play if all the cards are stacked against her?

Maahi was well-versed in the art of unrequited love. After all, she was quietly and hopelessly in love with Aarush all those years ago in college. But that's a closed chapter now. Right? A decade later, Maahi, now a successful wedding photographer, is all set for the next wedding on her calendar. The only thing she doesn't account for is the astoundingly familiar face of the groom's best friend. Cover Art: Sweeta Meetha ❤️

One whiskey. One stranger with terrible dance moves. One kiss that tastes like lime and poor life choices. Prisha just wanted to forget her catastrophic week, but golden retriever energy in a criminally well-fitted shirt had other plans. Sometimes the universe conspires. Sometimes it just wants chaos. Sometimes both.

When romance-obsessed Somali Sharma discovers her favorite bookstore has murdered the romance section, she launches an email assault on customer service. Instead of corporate speak, she gets wickedly clever replies from a mysterious wordsmith who thinks love stories are "beautiful lies" and happy endings are "dopamine delusions." What starts as literary warfare becomes epistolary seduction. Each email exchange grows more flirtatious, more vulnerable, more addictive. He's cynically brilliant, she's passionately stubborn. Email by email, two strangers fall in love through carefully crafted words, sharp wit, and vulnerable confessions. He's brooding and brilliant, hiding behind professional distance. She's fierce and romantic, refusing to let cynicism win. Together, they create their own love story, one perfectly timed response at a time. But plot twist: her enigmatic email nemesis has been keeping a secret that could rewrite their entire love story. Sometimes the best romances begin with a complaint and end with a revelation that proves truth is stranger than fiction.

This book is exactly what you think it is: a laugh-out-loud romance told through texts. *** Tara is the new girl in town, and she's got junior year all figured out: lay low, stay out of trouble, don't trust anyone. She's prepared for everything. Except town heartthrob Sahil Roy, of course. There are many ways to fall in love. Sometimes, all it takes is one text to the right person. started: 6th November 2020 finished: 26th February 2021 COVER CREDITS: Jasmine Tiyasa (1dgurlwrites)

The Dixits and Malhotras-two billionaire families bound by decades of friendship-had always dreamed of uniting their legacies through marriage. Their children grew up together, treating each other like family. Among them, Sonakshi Dixit had always been particularly close to everyone in the Malhotra family-except for one person: Devansh Malhotra, the reserved and aloof eldest son. Unlike his charming and outgoing younger brother, Rohan, whom she was set to marry, Devansh kept his distance, rarely engaging in conversations unless necessary. Sonakshi had accepted this marriage for the sake of her family, her parents, and her beloved chachu-chachi, who had always treated her as their own daughter. But deep down, her heart had never belonged to Rohan-it had always been drawn to Devansh, the man who never spared her more than a few words but whose silent presence spoke volumes to her. The only person who knew this secret was her best friend, Rhea Malhotra-Devansh and Rohan's younger sister. With the wedding already in motion, the absence of the groom would be a disaster for both families' reputations. But before anyone could panic, Devansh did what everyone silently expected him to do-he stepped forward. Without hesitation, without emotion, he took his younger brother's place. Not out of love, but out of duty. He would marry Sonakshi, not because he loved her-but because it was the only way to protect the honor of both families. As Sonakshi found herself standing before the man she had secretly loved, dressed as his bride, she realized that this was not just a marriage of convenience. It was fate giving them a chance-whether Devansh would ever return her feelings, however, was a question that only time could answer.
