Absence is to love what wind is to fire; it extinguishes the small, but enkindles the great. - Roger de Rabutin
"Wind" is a deeply emotional tale of love, faith, and the unpredictable forces that shape our lives.
Paulo, a young pastor dedicated to his calling, finds his world turned upside down when Annie, his childhood love, reappears after years apart. Their reunion ignites a whirlwind of passion and unresolved feelings, but with it comes a storm of guilt and doubt. Paulo, torn between his love for Annie and his devotion to the church, must navigate the turbulent waters of desire, faith, and personal responsibility.
As they rekindle their bond, fate takes them on a journey filled with both hope and heartache, testing the limits of their love. When Annie is caught in a life-threatening storm, Paulo races against time and the elements to save her-realizing that the winds of change have the power to both destroy and heal.
Set amidst the haunting beauty of the Philippine coastlines and rich in spiritual themes, "Wind" explores the fragile balance between duty and desire, faith and love. Through storms both literal and metaphorical, Paulo and Annie must decide if their love is strong enough to weather life's tempests, or if it's destined to be swept away.
In this poignant novel, Paulo and Annie discover that while the winds of life may change direction, true love, like the wind, cannot be contained.

The Sound of Stillness
Rasmus, frontman of the rising indie band Rouhi, is slowly unraveling. Amid growing fame and mounting pressure, he's haunted by a quiet emptiness he can't explain. When a devastating betrayal breaks him completely, Ras walks away from everything-music, love, and himself. In a quiet town by the sea, he finds stillness... and people who don't ask him to be anything but real. An old man with a past, a girl with paint on her hands, and silence that heals more than it hurts. But healing isn't linear-and some echoes refuse to stay buried. The Sound of Stillness is a deeply moving novel about brokenness, beauty, and the long, uncertain path to becoming whole again. Told with lyrical prose and raw honesty, it's a story about friendship, creative freedom, and finding your way back-through music, through memory, and through the people who never stopped believing in you.Kumpleto
Sue me, Baby. (MIKHAIAH)
Two lawyers. One courtroom. Zero chill. Mikha Lim is Manila's coldest, boldest, most terrifyingly hot attorney. She doesn't lose cases - or emotions. Mariah Queen Arceta? She's the flirtatious, mysterious rival who waltzes into court late, wins with a wink, and ruins Mikha's day like it's her full-time job. They're both brilliant. They're both competitive. They're definitely not in love. (Except for the part where Mikha's heart rate spikes every time Aiah speaks. And Aiah keeps filing motions just to make Mikha snap.) Between chaotic courtroom battles, meddling besties, and an ever-growing pile of unresolved sexual tension, these two sworn enemies might just end up... legally tangled. Enemies-to-lovers, lesbian lawyers, spicy tension, and courtroom drama? Sue me, baby.Kumpleto
A Wind of Memories

A dream that I can't remember but felt. Like the harsh wind that's embracing me. So refreshing. But so fast. Na ang panaginip kong iyon, parang malakas na hangin. Ramdam na ramdam pero agad na nakalimutan, at hahanap-hanapin. Tinangay na at hindi na makita pa. Like that memories. This will be written in taglish.

Orange the Color of Sunset
A novel you can enjoy as a pure romance love story, or-if you wish-a sociopolitical critique of the developing world, alongside an inspiring spiritual journey of the humble, resilient everyday hero. An emotionally powerful narrative achieving its objectives through its Trojan Horse structure: A high-performance Ferrari of absolute, hidden power... disguised in white denim and sneakers. A meticulously crafted story of multiple layers and highly nuanced subtext. Logline When Filipino American Cris and rural beauty Anna are drawn into a ten-day whirlwind romance, their short summer together unfolds as a love story for the Philippines, and years later, blossoms into a love story for God. ..... A deeply emotional romance novel... that absolutely subverts romance. ..... Synopsis "Orange, the Color of Sunset" explores the volatile, whirlwind relationship between Cris, a derisive, Manhattan-raised son of a powerful Philippine senator, and Anna, an academically accomplished yet fiercely guarded intellectual powerhouse rooted in her provincial community of Ilocos Norte. Their rapid summer romance escalates into intense ideological battles, reflecting deep class disparity, socio-political third-world corruption, and the resilience of the marginalized masses. Despite their abrupt and painful separation, their time together forces both characters toward significant personal transformation, in the hopes that, one day, their love may yet endure, for they are "just on Earth." .....

GUSTO KO NANG BUMITAW! (I want to let go!)
Genre: Drama / Romance Anthology Format: 12 episodes Language: Filipino and English (with natural conversational tone) "Lahat tayo may sandaling gustong bumitaw - pero hindi lahat may tapang na gawin 'yon." (We've all had nights when we want to quit everything and walk away-but let's be real, not everyone does it.) So here's the deal with the series: every episode? A different love story right at its breaking point. Lovers split by long distance, families ripped apart by pride, friends not talking because, I dunno, stubbornness? And then there are those people haunted by all the "what ifs." It's like, every story starts when you're right at the edge, when holding on just hurts way more than giving up. But here's the twist - letting go isn't always about quitting. Sometimes it's the first real shot at freedom. Or maybe it's finally forgiving someone. Or even just finding yourself again, after being lost for so long. You'll see every kind of love: city flings, small-town heartbreaks, first crushes, last chances. "Gusto ko nang Bumitaw!" is all about those raw, messy moments - the ugly cries, the quiet goodbyes, the stuff you usually keep to yourself. It's heartbreak, love, and letting go, unfiltered. No sugarcoating, just real life.Kumpleto
