(COMPLETED) Bradley Teo Lauchico High school friends fell in love with each other. Haunted by a traumatic upbringing and a cruel false accusation that once drove her into a lonely life in Washington, Rome struggles to believe she is worthy of the Lauchico name or the future Bradley so desperately wants to build for her. Bradley, ever persistent, chooses to dismantle his perfect image to prove that his love isn't a cage of expectations, but a safe space where Rome's brokenness is cherished. The two trade the pressures, finding their ultimate healing in the realization that a home isn't defined by a status, but by the choice to stay when the rest of the world walks away.

|Wattys 2025 Shortlist| She was a sunlight. Wild, daring, and free. He was the crescent moon. Silent, disciplined, and powerful. Dorothy Maeve Andino lived like life was a dance she already mastered.
