Chasing Waves
Thirty-two-year-old Mags Abarquez is a single mom to a preschooler with golden ringlets, and by God, she is going to be good. After a lifetime of only being interested in catching the next wave, she tries out for her company’s training faculty, determined to be serious and make it work this time. The only catch? Luke, her hot, younger training mentor. With a sexy nape, a penchant for paper-thin T-shirts and a disarming smile, he’s Mags’ personal brand of kryptonite. Can she stay the course when temptation loves to banter and is so good with her son?

A contemporary romance set in the Philippines about motherhood, workplace attraction and finding that sweet spot between passion and vocation, Chasing Waves will make you swoon and smile.

One Night At The Penthouse Suite


All her life, Cora Ciacho was trained by her father to be one thing: CEO of Ciacho Group, the company he built from the ground up. She assumes the role six months after he passes away, but must face new challenges: a borderline hostile board, a too-good-to-be-true investment offer, and a mother and sister who deal with their grief in different ways. Thank goodness for Stephen Cruz, the sweet, sexy man who’d rescued her from a party eight months ago and has stayed by her side ever since.

Stephen knows that he and Cora are worlds apart. He does his best even if he wonders if a worker bee like him is enough for the queen that she is. Their relationship sizzles in the bedroom, but as they go through a trial by fire, can his love overcome their challenges? Or will it fizzle as Cora tries to conquer the boardroom?

Scorched Earth

Peyton Riley is running for her life.

She\’s always been a survivor, but she\’s never been in a pickle like this. Her boss, the man she had come to fear and respect, and the only constant in her peripatetic and dangerous life, is after her–and it doesn\’t seem like he intends a harmless catch-up. But he\’s not the only one looking for Peyton. There\’s her sometime partner-in-crime and occasional hook-up (it\’s complicated) Carson Varis. Law enforcement is also interested in her boss\’s shadowy business dealings, thinking she\’s the key to unraveling them.

And then there are those dealings themselves. What\’s her boss up to? Somehow, Peyton doesn\’t think getting back at a former employee is the worst thing on his agenda…

Peyton Riley

Not to get Liam Neeson on your asses, but the fact is that Peyton Riley has a very specific skill set. She\’s good at her job and has just gotten off a major project when she crosses paths with the gorgeous snake-in-the-grass calling himself Carson Varis. He\’s taken her against her will, but to where, and to what end? She\’s got days to figure this out and escape–before her boss finds out where his favorite specialist has disappeared.

Carson Varis has got an eye for art and a mania for professionalism. No one does work-life balance like he does. But a certain fiery redhead has gotten his goals in a twist. He has his employer\’s order to fulfill, but can\’t get the memory of her body (and her hair, and her deep blue eyes, and oh, that mouth) out of the way. Can he get it together and pull off a job well done?

LONGING FOR by CARLA DE GUZMAN
Everyone knows that Allie Medina is in love with Logan Aritz Hilario.

HERE COMES THE ONE by SUZETTE DE BORJA

He thinks giving in to their simmering desire is a bad idea. Kelly is on a mission to convince him they should explore the attraction-and each other-before coming to a conclusion.
