Evolving Perceptions

                             In this blog post, I decided to play the Marry, Date, or Kill using characters from Romance Class books. In this game, I selected three characters from a romance class book and evaluated who would I marry, date or kill. 1. Keeping the Distance by Clarisse David Marry - Hunter. He is totally my type and I can't wait to read more about him. Date - Lance.  Kill - Jace, he is too neat and I am too messy.   2.

Last February 19, 2017 (Sunday), I attended The Philippine Romance Convention 2017 in Alabang Town Center, Activity Center. I had a lot of fun. I met a lot of authors with books that I have read and I've also discovered authors with books that I have not read and I was eager to try out their books thus breaking my book buying ban again. I also learned a lot of things especially about writing books and the process behind it.             I first attended the Sweet love discussion, which is a panel discussion on young adult, new adult, and inspirational romance.

Title: Simply Joei Author: Clare Elisabeth Marquez Release Date: January 2017 About the Book: Pay -up Time! Or Is it? One never gives up on true love. So Jake didn't. Holding on to the one that shouldn't have gotten away, gorgeous Jake Calleja - engineer, entrepreneur and all-around hunk of a man - brings up old debt to bring in possibilities of future love with the beautiful and elusive Josephine Telencio. The two had a brief but unforgettable "history" in college, a past that Jake would seek to bring back in order to bring his "Joei" back in his life. To face their "unfinished past" entails a make-believe relationship for the sake of an ailing matriarch, an unforgettable country drive into the heart of the storm, a family drama of the queen mother and the wicked sisters, the inevitable supermodel ex, and lots of sparks in between. A story of second chances and risking it all for a journey to a lifetime love - Jake and Josephine ...
