From Start Here, a #romanceclass anthology
Jess is finally on a long-delayed vacation to Bohol with her hot but busy boyfriend Matteo. Beautiful resort, check. Romantic ambience, check. There is only one problem. Lily Rose, the resort’s resident singer and self-proclaimed mermaid is just distracting the hell out of everything.
Matteo and I had a late dinner after he had finished his conference call marathon. Finally, the romantic ambience I was hoping for was coming together.
A musician had been playing, his fingers making magic out of the strings of his classical guitar. The lights dimmed further and a single spotlight slowly brightened on a spot on the small stage. It was her, the woman from the island. She sang, her voice both sexy and plaintive.
Her colorful hair was braided to one side, a white lily behind an ear. She was wearing a loose lime-green spaghetti-strapped dress that flared just above her knees, her feet in beige strappy wedges. She was a few inches shorter than my own 5′4″ height, but on the stage, she was a commanding presence.
I looked around and every person in the restaurant/bar was under her spell.
Including Matteo.
Is she for freaking real?

OMG! This is just so good. I love how well this is written, how well the author has described the places they have been. It feels like you were also there with the characters. I enjoyed Lily so much, her character was just full of joy and liveliness. Jess on the other hand, during the first part of the story I was kind of annoy with her attitude but I was happy that she has come to terms with everything, even herself at the end. And Matteo was just hot! The story progress slowly but surely and lovely. It has the exact feels and not too much drama which I like. I love that the characters just compliment each other and yes to all the body shots and the drinking!! I enjoyed this so much!

As for this one, I love how it mainly focused on finding and loving one’s self before trying to commit to a romantic relationship. I love how in every page, the MC was basically forced by the LI to face her fears and do things she has never done before. And at first, I was afraid that the story might involve someone cheating, and I was so relieved to find out I was wrong towards the end. I love the overall feel good feel of this story, and I can’t deny how much I loved this one too.
