28 parts Complete Mature
Hana is a driven, independent woman who has quickly climbed the ranks in her career, now working as a creative manager in a prestigious FMCG company. Raised by a single mother, Hana's ambitions are fueled by a desire to never experience the struggles of her childhood. With a degree under her belt and a promising future ahead, she's determined to make her dreams a reality-no distractions, no regrets. That is, until she meets Lily. Lily is reserved but passionate finance student in Hana's first-year business class. Their connection is immediate, sparked by late-night study sessions, coffee-fueled conversations, and a shared love for deep, meaningful talks. Their friendship blooms into something more, and soon, they can't deny their growing feelings for each other. But their love story is far from simple. When Lily's conservative parents discover their relationship, they make an ultimatum: choose Hana, and they'll cut her off financially, stopping her tuition payments and support for her future. Torn between the woman she loves and the dreams she's worked so hard for, Lily makes the heartbreaking decision to walk away from Hana, choosing her education over love. Years later, Lily returns with a PhD in hand, but the question still lingers in her heart-was it worth sacrificing her love for a future she wasn't sure she wanted? Determined to reconnect with Hana, she returns to Bangkok, only to find Hana has moved on. Hana is now getting close to Kate, a kind-hearted and supportive colleague who is everything Lily isn't-steady, dependable, and ready to love her without hesitation. Caught between the love she lost and a new possibility, Hana must face her past and decide if there's room for Lily again-or if it's time to move forward with Kate. With the warmth of coffee and the sweetness of tea, Hana must choose the path that will lead her to happiness.

Perpetual quitter Vera Kwan thinks she's got it made when her style blog catches the attention of narcissistic actor Carmen Juarez, but after egos ignite a gossip war, Vera has to learn to balance her flighty ambitions and her attraction to Carmen's prickly, gorgeous manager Sharise before her Hollywood dreams fall apart like a cheap polyester blouse. ***** It's not Vera Kwan's fault that she can't hold down a job. A fashion school dropout, she dreams of becoming a famous designer, but the life of a style influencer is more grind than glamour. She just needs one big break, one chance to prove her styles are red carpet worthy. When a snarky post about her celebrity crush Carmen Juarez catches the actor's attention, Vera wins her ticket to stardom. As Carmen's stylist, she sets out to prove that she's more than just pretty clothes and the right filters, and maybe even win the affections of Carmen's aloof manager, Sharise, who she quickly finds herself falling for. After a clever fashion stunt goes viral, Vera is suddenly the most sought-after stylist in Hollywood. She even gets a job offer from Carmen's rival. But her style success may not be getting her any closer to her designer dreams, and secrets are beginning to fray her sense of purpose. If Vera can't figure out what's important enough to see through to the end, even when it seems impossible, she risks losing both the professional relationship that made her and the romantic relationship that might be the one thing that matters to her as much as fashion. ***** Complete at 100k words. *featured on Wattpad's A Latte Love, #WrittenWithPride, From Our Stars, and In her words #IWD2020 reading lists* Cover by the incredible @AnnaofthePond

Until a single betrayal destroyed everything. Framed in a shocking drug scandal, his life and career crumbled under the weight of public humiliation. The truth? His own girlfriend - a budding actress, had orchestrated it all to hand him over to his rivals. Years later, he's no longer the man the world once knew. Now, he's a ruthless fashion icon and Hollywood star actor, with only one goal: revenge. And he knows exactly where to strike. To destroy the woman who betrayed him, he marries her sister-a quiet, naive girl with no education, no idea of fashion and no knowledge of his dark world. She's the polar opposite of her scheming sibling, a beacon of innocence in his shadowy life. But as their lives collide, the lines between revenge and redemption blur. Her warmth begins to thaw his icy heart, while his darkness threatens to consume her light. In a world where trust is shattered and love is a dangerous game, can revenge truly heal-or will it destroy them both? Can he trust the sister of the girl who destroyed his life in the past? Can he fall in love once again where love became a nightmare in his life? A gripping tale of betrayal, vengeance, and an unexpected love that could change everything.
