NEW RELEASE: Crushingly Close by Stella Torres
It’s always good news when someone from the Filipino writing community releases something new, and this year’s seen a lot of them so far! (Great job, everyone!) Today, I’m bringing your attention to a new book by friend and author Stella Torres. Crushingly Close is coming out on July 19!
Crushingly Close
by Stella TorresAt twenty-four years old, Agnes Escueta has risen from the ranks to become a producer for Sports Tonight. No one can touch her, it seems—not even crush-worthy anchorman Daniel Ferrer, who she gets to work with every single day. When a road trip to Indonesia throws Agnes and Daniel together, they find themselves working in close quarters. It doesn’t take long before Agnes finds herself being charmed by Daniel, and her defenses start to melt with his touch. With deadlines looming and a big game coming, Agnes must figure out how to let Daniel into her life without risking her professional reputation—and without breaking her own heart.
