Book 1 TOW3 series -- CALIBRATED DISTANCE Mira never knew someone had been watching her for years. Akala niya trauma lang ang tinatakasan niya. May silent watcher pala siya... Pero sino nga ba sa kanila si Mr. X? Si Marcus na matagal na niyang gusto? Si Gael na palaging nandiyan pero tila may tinatago? Si Chino na ginagawang biro ang lahat? O si Milo na biglang nawala nang walang paliwanag? This is not an enemies-to-lovers story. No dramatic rescues. No perfect timing. It's surveillance. May mga desisyong hindi na mababawi. May mga pusong natutong magmahal kahit delikado. And some distance were chosen just to keep you safe. Calibrated Distance is about grief that lingers. Resilience that refuses to disappear. And love that survives even the worst kind of watching - the kind that lives inside your own mind. This isn't a story about being seen. It's about seeing yourself again - after the system said you shouldn't exist. Welcome to Calibrated Distance.

Book 3 TOW3 series - SOFT RESET Soft Reset is not typical Wattpad love story. It subverts typical Wattpad tropes - trading fantasy for grief, quiet longing, emotional restraint, and the slow work of healing after trauma. Elisse and Milo are not perfect. They're messy. Flawed. Complicated. But true. Raw. Damaged but trying. This isn't a story about being chosen. It's about the pain of not being ready for love when it mattered the most and the cost of realizing it too late.
