Redeemed Captives #1
Accused of committing a crime, Hope Gastrell had all the reasons to be agitated. Restlessly seeking refuge after her escape and by being downright desperate for freedom, she finally found her safe haven in Cebu. But the life she built lie upon lie is not meat to last, or she can just choose to surrender before everything crumbles down.
***
Hosanna Ophelia Gastrell wouldn't want to cause a disruption anywhere, especially in Cebu. But desperate time calls for desperate measures. A new beginning in a new environment. To be a student, the only way she can hang on for dear life. To maintain confidentiality, the only way she can think of to be safe. After all, she was a student even before she became a sought after suspect. But suddenly gone are her long pursued peace and freedom. An inevitable wave of trouble is starting to seep through her discreet life. A combination of stress and serenity, blue eyed Shawn Abram Salsivan is relentless in brewing her life until she finally concedes defeat. Hope must surrender herself and own up to her crime, but she's unsure if she'll be put behind bars or be held captive by the blue eyed man.

Oddly Familiar
Some people feel like memories the first time you meet them. She knew better than to trust someone so soon - pero may kung anong sa kanya na parang matagal nang kilala. What began as a spontaneous decision turned into late-night conversations, shared silences, quiet stares, and a kind of intimacy neither of them expected - or fully understood. For her, it wasn't love. Not yet. But it felt like home. And maybe, that was even scarier. Just when things were beginning to make sense... two pink lines changed everything. "Buntis ako." In a world where love felt dangerous, marriage seemed like a trap, and the future was always uncertain, she's forced to make a choice: to face a truth she's not ready for, tell someone she's not sure she can trust, and carry a life she never planned. Is she ready to tell him - and risk breaking something she barely understands? Or stay silent, keep it, and face it all alone? Oddly Familiar is a story about moments that change us, people who arrive when we least expect them, and a kind of love that feels both terrifying and true. It's about growing up too soon, letting go too late, and finding courage in the most unexpected places. Because sometimes, the people we meet by accident are the ones who stay. And sometimes, we ride off with strangers who feel oddly... familiar.
