Cerese Stories

Ceresse Davina West lived a glittering life in the U.S.-money, comfort, and everything she thought she wanted. But when her perfect world crumbles after a betrayal she didn't see coming, she finds herself boarding a flight to the one place she swore she'd never return to: the Philippines. Haunted by a message from an unknown number and carrying the weight of a past she left behind, Ceresse lands not just in a different country-but in a version of herself she thought she'd buried. Old memories stir, secrets resurface, and the rain begins to fall once again. In a place full of fragments and forgotten corners, will Ceresse find closure-or uncover something she was never meant to remember? - Original book cover from Canva.
