BIBLICAL
Brilliant young graduate Emily Velez is shy, damaged, and, in her own words, "mousy." Her track record with relationships is dismal; in fact, if it weren't for her best friend, she'd stop trying to date altogether. Rich, handsome, half-Korean Professor Seth Carlos is the campus heartthrob and way beyond Emily's league. She shouldn't be on his radar at all, except for one fateful night when she's forced to spend the night at his house!Now they're inexplicably drawn to each other, except there's a seemingly insurmountable problem: he's already ensnared in the clutches of a gorgeous femme fatale, and there's no way she's letting him go without a fight.Soul-baring conversations, crazy friendships, dastardly schemes, shocking revelations, and deadly showdowns--they're all here!Note: I've always liked sweet, wholesome, "kilig" (romantically thrilling) stories that anyone--even teenagers--can read. So, for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) 2023, I decided to write one of my own. Since I was in a rush, I chose an old trope and just added my own twists. I couldn't finish it within one month, though; it took me four. I'm uploading the chapters one by one, but rest assured the book is otherwise complete. So if you start it, you can be sure you won't be "bitin" or unsatisfied. Enjoy! The book playlist: These were some of the tracks playing on repeat while I was writing. They may or may not be related to the chapters I embedded them in, but they are all certainly associated with the story as a whole, especially the eponymous song by Calum Scott.โฆ
