Fake It 'Til You Have It

There's always a line you think you can cross safely-until you realize how much of yourself you left behind on the other side.

Six years ago, Lalisa Manoban disappeared from the lives of the people who once knew her best.

Now known as Lalisa Bruschweiler, she returns to the Philippines carrying everything she spent years building abroad: success, power, a new name... and feelings she never truly escaped from.

She only planned to attend her best friend's wedding.

What she didn't plan for was Jennie Kim.

The girl she loved quietly.
The girl she left behind without explanation.
The girl who looked straight at her after six years-

and didn't recognize her.

A slow-burn friends-to-lovers story about distance, unfinished feelings, and the terrifying possibility of being known again.

For the Filo JenLisa readers who still believe that some people never really leave your heart.
