Refugio Ranch Series #1
They say history repeats itself. . . that the present is never really new. Na ang lahat ng nangyayari ngayon ay may pinanggalingan. Lahat may dahilan. Lahat may sugat.
Alam ni Adela Jude Satore and pinasok niya simula noong nagkagusto siya kay Diego Samael Raciles. Paano ba naman kasi, hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin nakaka-move on ang lalaki sa dati nitong nobya. She should've walked away. She knew that. Paano ka nga ba lalaban sa isang alaala?
But if being a backburner is a job, Adela would be filthy rich right now. She chose to acknowledge her feelings because she wanted him to choose her. Not as a distraction, not as a replacement, but as something real.
But the past has a way of holding on tighter just when you think you've already forgotten. In the space between remembering and beginning again, who is willing to let go?

❝Alia, I wanna try again. You and me. I've been thinking about you crazy and if we don't date I might just bust a gut.❞ ❝Well I don't want you to hurt yourself.❞ Alia smirked, leaning in. Aaliyah Mendoza was Jesus's first real love-bright, artistic, and full of fire. But just as their connection began to deepen, Alia was abruptly pulled out of his life when her conservative parents forced her to move away, fearing her growing bond with the Foster family and Jesus's influence. What they didn't know was that the two never really stopped talking. For months, Jesus and Aaliyah have secretly stayed in touch through late-night phone calls, private texts, and heartfelt video chats. So when Aaliyah suddenly returns to town for her sophomore year-enrolling at Anchor Beach-Jesus sees it as their second chance. He's ready to pick up where they left off, only this time, he's determined to make it real: no more sneaking around, no more hiding. But love the second time around isn't so simple. Aaliyah's home life is still tense, and her parents have strict expectations. Jesus is still recovering from his traumatic brain injury, struggling with impulse control, anger, and frustration-things he tries to hide from her. Mariana is suspicious, Stef and Lena are cautious, and Emma isn't exactly thrilled that Aaliyah back in the picture. As the past crashes into the present, Aaliyah must decide if their love can survive the complications that drove them apart in the first place. Can they build something lasting-or is this reunion just a beautiful mistake?

Falling Without Landing
Everyone knew him - intelligent, admired, the face of his department. But she never looked his way. Ethan Lao had it all: top of his class, famous among engineering students, and effortlessly charming. Most girls noticed. Lila Santos didn't. Loud, passionate, and laser-focused on her accounting board exam, Lila was the kind of girl who spoke her mind, filled rooms with her energy, and had no time for college crushes. Their worlds crossed through mutual friends, campus visits, and fleeting moments - but she never even knew his name. He sent her Facebook friend requests. Twice. She didn't respond. Then came the pandemic. Life slowed down. Screens lit up. And one day, Ethan saw her again - in a Facebook story. Still vibrant. Still unaware. "Do you think she'd mind if I sent a wave?" he asked. This isn't a story about love that bloomed. It's about admiration left unread. About falling for someone... who never even saw you coming. This is "Falling Without Landing."Complete
Unwritten
Aliyah Suzette Mercado believes that waiting has its rewards. She is a writer, but there's one story she just can't seem to finish, it's as if something is missing. A story left unwritten-much like her love for a man she met online who introduced himself as Zy. Though they never met in person, she slowly fell, not just for the man, but for the feeling of being seen, valued, and enough pero bigla na lang itong nawala. Walang paliwanag, walang paalam, parang bula, a love that was left unwritten. She doesn't know where the story is headed or if it will ever be given a beautiful happy ending. What if not every story needs to mirror the past? What if hindi sa lahat ng bagay nakatuon ang atensyon ni Ali sa kwento nilang dalawa? Is there still a second chance for a love that was once left unfinished - unwritten?Complete

Back Roads
"What would you do?" Daisy raised a brow and an amused smile quirked up with it. "You want me to make the choice for you? Given my track record, are you sure that's a good idea?" "Your track record is the perfect reason. You've been with your share. You have a better idea than I do as to this choice," she wiped the back of her hand under her eyes once more. "Do I choose the boy who broke my heart more than once. Or do I choose the man who has watched over me all these years?" "You already know your choice, Jazzy." Her friend's brow furrowed. "You called one a boy and attached it to a horrible moment in your life. The other you called a man and called him your protector. Now, if I were a third-party stranger and I heard you refer to each of them in the same manner, I would slap you silly and ask how there could even be a choice. So, answer me this. Why are you still trying to choose?" ***************************************************** All roads lead you home... The only road on Jasmine Meeker's mind takes her away from home.
