What is it going to take for a girl like me to truly be happy? I remember the saying, 'When life gave you lemons, make a really good lemonade...' Oh no...life handed me the lemons, and instead of making that lemonade, I got 2 overbearing cousins...Make that 3 overbearing cousins... and a mafia boss who finds me appealing enough to stalk me everywhere I go. My mother passed away, and I was left reeling in my emotions and grief, feeling lonely and confused about where I stand in a world so full of love and happiness. The first step to start my new job and ready to be back out in a life where I can be independent and provide for myself again, I do what most people grieving do. I get up and I survive with a smile on my face. The second step was fantasising about a decent coffee; my first stop was the café near my hotel. I was greeted by my cousin in the middle of said café and his boss, who so happens to be the Italian Mob boss...The one I called a moron. Biggest mistake going. An engagement party that turns my heart left on the sidewalk and a boss who doesn't see the pain of watching him kiss another woman. Leaving the party, I head home in hopes I never see him again...Until he was at my front door wanting me to go back to New York with him and work remotely from his place. It's a crazy idea, right? A crazy idea to even think I could pull off the life I always wanted and still be close to my only other family m

Makakatanggap si Ryc ng isang email na nagsasabing siya ay anak ‘daw ito. Iisang tao lang naman ang hinahanap niya—si Isabella o Ella. Ang babaeng naka-one-night-stand niya at naglaho nalang na parang bula. “Good evening, Daddy. Ako po si Issa, anak po ako ni Isabella. Hindi ko po alam kung kilala niyo si mommy pero nasa panganib po ang buhay niya. Kinuha po siya ng mga armadong lalaki! Ang sabi ni mommy hindi pa siyang handa na ipakilala ka pero dahil sa mabilis na pangyayari ay itinago niya ako at sinabing hanapin ka. Takot na takot na po ako daddy, nasaan ka na po?”

Ang pagkikita nila ay nasundan pa ng itinakda itong ipakasal ng kanyang pamilya sa kanya.

"You think you can just leave without a trace after what happened that night?" His hands pinned her arms above her head, his piercing blue eyes boring into hers. "W-what do you mean?" she stuttered, his scent reminding her of that night—the night that had changed her life completely. "What do I mean? Are you seriously asking me that, woman? If your brain can't recall how we burned together on that bed, how about I remind you right here?" His face was dangerously close as he growled into her ear. Her eyes widened. He meant it. Every single word. He was the king of the entertainment world, after all. "Let me go," she demanded stubbornly, her voice barely audible. He let out a low, dark chuckle that sent a chill down her spine. "Let you go? Oh, I'll let you go, Tatiana. But not until you understand the consequences of crossing paths with me." •••••••••• In the world of the entertainment industry, we see constant change and creativity. Trends come and go, as do collaborations between artists and producers. This world can make anyone wish to be a part of it—it is said to be inspiring and enjoyable... Meanwhile, that's only on the surface. The same world is filled with deceit, betrayal, fake love, ruthless competition, toxic fans who could ruin you, suicide, and dissatisfaction... This world is mostly dominated by men. How can a woman, hurt by this world, face it—especially when she had a night and her life tangled with the king of them all?

Lottie just knows that her boyfriend is going to propose, but then his big question involves a trip abroad—not a trip down the aisle. Completely crushed, Lottie reconnects with an old flame, and they decide to take drastic action. No dates, no moving in together, they’ll just get married . . . right now. Her sister, Fliss, thinks Lottie is making a terrible mistake, and will do anything to stop her. But Lottie is determined to say “I do,” for better, or for worse.

"We had a one-night stand and that was it. Goodbye to you." She stated carelessly before grabbing her G-string and exiting the suite. He stood up from the bed, exposing his ten-inch dick, and pulled her to his chest before curling his lips and announcing, "I am the one who says it's over. And I didn't say I am done with you yet." She was intoxicated but began to sober up after hearing his strange words. Her vision was still blurry, but his body odor and colegone became increasingly familiar. She exclaimed, "No!" as she began to recognize him. " No way. That's you!" Before pushing her back to bed, he nodded and smiled and confirmed, "Yes, I am your future stepdad. The person you dislike most." “fuck!”

Building an empire comes first. Or it did until I met her. My family’s billion-dollar hotel chain has been my life for as long as I can remember. Travel. Women. Wealth. That’s all I know, until fate grabs me by the throat and decides to not let up. She’s a beach body, a beautiful, curvy California girl who hasn't found the right person to give into yet. I would have felt the same, but something about her has me pacing the floor at night. And my father sent me out to her hotel specifically. The sly dog knowing that she’s exactly the woman I need in my future. But it’s not that easy. It never is. Not until our love produces a little one. Then everything changes. Especially me. Now I want more than just one night. I want forever.

And then he met this hot stranger pero hindi niya naman type na siyang naging sandalan niya sa gabing wasak na wasak ang kanyang mundo. Hindi lang agresibong halik ang ibinigay niya sa lalaki kundi maging ang kanyang pagkababae na siyang sinisisi niya kung bakit nagawa siyang saktan ng taong mahal niya.

Paano niya malalagpasan ang nagbabadyang ikalawa niyang kabiguan kung ang taong kanyang naging karamay ay ang taong mawawala ulit sa kanya? Bibitiw ba siya kagaya nong una o ipaglalaban niya ang kanyang nararamdaman para sa taong binansagan niyang ‘STRANGER’?
