The crown needs sacrifices-that is what Alyson di Liano has always reminded herself. In an island where genealogy is everything, Aly has already lost the game before it even started. It doesn't matter how hard she works to be, or that her face launched a thousand ships--she will always be the girl from the wrong side of town. Dirt poor though ambitious, Aly vows to do everything she can to get out of that life... even if that means selling her soul to the devil.A quintessential privileged golden boy, West Xu is exactly the kind of distraction she didn't want. Born to old money as the heir to the Xu empire that owned hundreds of hotels worldwide, he never had to work for a single thing in his life. Alyson despised the very things he stood for. Growing up, he's never had to want for anything, but Alyson is the type of woman who denied him what he wanted the most - her. She is the antithesis of the woman his family wanted for him, but he couldn't help but be drawn to her like a moth to a flame.How does he tame a heart hardened by life? Would she let him? Just how much would he sacrifice to have the woman he wants the most?…

Sino ba naman ang mag aakala magkakagusto ito sa kanya na alam ng buong eskwelahan ang reputasyon niya?Pero still, just as every single romance prospect in her life, naglaho ito ng parang bula. She has never seen that boy ever again. Time passed and the pearl necklace was long tossed at the back of her drawer. That is, until one afternoon a year later, the strangest thing happened. She opened the locket, and in a flash, she was struck hard when memories of a past dancing under the moonlight with a boy flashes right before her eyes. Memories of kissing a boy whom she strangely felt like she knew her entire life.…

IT'S THE YEAR 1962. Newly minted flight stewardess, Anastasia Locroft was more than thrilled to finally land the job of her dreams, to do the one thing she's always wanted to do - see the world.

And three months later, he was still grieving. A free spirit healing a tortured soul... they always said it never ended well. (Previously titled: Fly Me To The Moon)…
