What if the person who made you feel alive is the one you were never supposed to meet? Kapitan Elias Navarro has spent years at sea-escaping, surviving, forgetting. Sa pagod, distansiya, at katahimikan, unti-unting nagkabitak ang kanyang tahanan. Pagdating niya sa Puerto Esperanza, nakilala niya si Hana Villena-isang babaeng tulad niya: malungkot ang mga mata, maganda ang ngiti pero may bitbit na bagyo sa loob. Isang sandaling dapat ay ordinaryo... naging simula ng pagbagyo ng lahat. Habang lumalalim ang koneksyon nila, unti-unting nababasag ang buhay ni Elias, ni Malaya, at ng pamilya nilang minsang matatag. At kung minsan, ang puso-kapag matagal nang tahimik-mas delikadong tumibok. Dagat. Katahimikan. Sekreto. Pag-ibig na hindi dapat umusbong. A story of forbidden tenderness, painful choices, and the waves that drown even the strongest hearts.

Two years ago, my husband disappeared on our wedding night. No note. No warning. Just a sealed envelope I never opened. Now he's back-soaked in rain, full of secrets, and standing on my doorstep like he still belongs here. He doesn't. But my heart hasn't gotten the message. And the worst part? He still knows how to say my name like it's a promise. Too bad I'm not in the mood for fairy tales. Not anymore.

Four years ago, Calliope thought she and Asher had it all - a beautiful daughter, a marriage they fought to build, and a future full of promise. But somewhere between his rising fame and her quiet sacrifice, the cracks began to show. Nights grew longer, arguments sharper, and love... harder to find. When a familiar face from Asher's past returns to drive a wedge between them, Calliope makes the hardest choice of all: to walk away, taking their daughter with her. But love doesn't just disappear - and neither does the pain of betrayal. Asher must face the truth about who he's become and what he stands to lose if he can't show up for his family the way they deserve. In this gripping, emotional sequel to Expecting the Unexpected, E. Grace delivers a heartfelt story of motherhood, marriage, and what it takes to rebuild trust when everything seems broken. Sometimes love means walking away. And sometimes... it means finding your way home again.
