But when late-night conversations with someone unexpected begin turning personal, Rye starts questioning everything she thought she knew about music, fame, and herself.

The Echo of a Heartbeat Isang madamdaming kwento tungkol sa pag-ibig na kailangang ipaglaban sa gitna ng kawalan ng alaala. Iikot ang kwento kina Shawn at Shimmira, dalawang magkasintahan na ang tadhana ay tila nakasulat na sa mga bituin. Ngunit sa isang iglap, gumuho ang lahat dahil sa isang aksidenteng naging sanhi ng amnesia ni Shawn. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ang unang librong ito ay puno ng pag-asa at pananabik. Ipinapakita nito na ang tunay na pag-ibig ay hindi lamang nakadepende sa mga litrato o kwento ng nakaraan, kundi sa "pintig" na tanging ang puso lamang ang nakakarinig.

#OfAllTheUniverses Of all the chances the Universe gave them to cross paths, they missed every single one. They were never supposed to meet again, but the Universe, with its annoying sense of humor, tried one more time... and this time, it worked. Now she's in his life, smelling like nostalgia, becoming his favorite headache, and bringing a warmth that's slowly melting his icy, well-guarded heart.

(COMPLETED) Nina Selene Dizon never expected to become obsessed with someone she'd never met. A random TikTok. A song stuck on repeat. Late-night playlists. Messages she poured her thoughts into, day after day... She didn't expect him to notice. She didn't even want him to. Until the day she stopped sending them. And suddenly, the silence was louder than any message.

(COMPLETED) Yelena Andrade loves music. Any genre and any mood. When she's not listening to new songs, she's playing Love and Deepspace, fully aware that her loyalty belongs to Xavier (fictional men included). One day, out of pure boredom, she follows Bad Omens on Instagram... and their drummer, Nick Folio. Not because she's a die-hard fan, she just felt like it. What she didn't plan was replying to one of Nick's stories with a little too much confidence. Funny, sarcastic, and armed with effortless rizz, Yelena treats Nick like a normal guy instead of a rockstar and somehow, that's what hooks him. What starts as an unserious DM turns into late-night banter, unexpected flirting, and Nick realizing he might be in trouble. All because Yelena was bored.

(COMPLETED) Ranya "Ren" Noriega doesn't do fangirling. At twenty-four, she prefers quiet playlists, clean design boards, and Japanese rock bands with poetic lyrics - not tattooed American musicians screaming about heartbreak. Her best friend, Nikola Fuentes, is the total opposite: loud, chaotic, and a self-proclaimed wife of Bad Omens' drummer, Nick Folio. When Nika wins two passes to Louder Than Life 2025 in Louisville, Kentucky, she drags Ren along for what she calls "a once-in-a-lifetime religious experience." Ren expects noise, crowds, and jet lag. What she doesn't expect is catching the attention of the one guy she swore wasn't her type. Nick's calm where she's cold, grounded where she's guarded - and somehow, he keeps showing up. Backstage. Online. Everywhere. She came for the vocals. But it seems she's staying for the drummer - and the wrong setlist might just be the one that finally plays her heart.

She's the drummer of a small cover band from Manila. He's the drummer of one of the biggest metal bands in the world. When a viral cover connects Astrid Moreno, drummer of Manila-based band Crimson Seraph, with Vinny Mauro of Motionless in White, what starts as a musician's respect slowly turns into something neither of them can name. Late-night messages. Shared playlists. Drum fills that echo the same ache. Two drummers on opposite sides of the world, trying to stay in tempo with something that feels a lot like love. But even the steadiest beat can falter- when the heart refuses to keep perfect time.

(COMPLETED) Aniela Miracle Galero lives for calm -- acoustic playlists, quiet cafés, and a life untouched by chaos. Tattoos? Too permanent. Rock music? Too loud. But one night at a Bad Omens concert, dragged there by her best friend, she catches the eye of Nicholas Ruffilo, the band's bassist and tattoo artist whose world is built on noise, ink, and rebellion. He calls her Amira, a name only he uses, and soon, the loudest person she's ever met becomes the one who listens the most. In a story where silence meets distortion, and softness collides with chaos, they'll find that some connections aren't written in words... they're carved in reverb.
