Liaandnate Stories

Twenty-three-year-old Eliana "Lia" Castillo has one rule: never get attached. After spending years moving from one city to another because of her mother's work, she's learned that every hello eventually becomes a goodbye. Now starting over in Manila, Lia is determined to focus on her career and keep everyone at arm's length. Then she meets Nathan "Nate" Ramirez. He's the complete opposite-warm, annoyingly friendly, and the kind of person who remembers everyone's favorite coffee order. Working in the same publishing company, Nate slowly breaks down the walls Lia spent years building. Everything seems perfect until Lia discovers a collection of unsent letters hidden in the office archives. The letters were written years ago by two former employees whose love story ended without closure. Strangely, the letters begin mirroring Lia and Nate's own relationship, as if history is quietly repeating itself. As they try to uncover what really happened, old family secrets, career dreams, misunderstandings, and fears threaten to pull them apart. Sometimes, love isn't about finding the right person. Sometimes... it's about finding the courage to finally say the things you've kept inside. "Books preserve stories. Letters preserve feelings. But people preserve each other." #thethingsweneversaid
