Sent to a secluded island to recover, Denara Velarde expects silence, not secrets.
But the calm is too perfect, the rules too quiet and then there's him. Lucien Reyes: composed, distant, always watching from the shadows.
As Denara searches for peace, she uncovers something far more complicated, a hidden past, a locked-down truth, and a man whose silence says more than words ever could.
Healing was supposed to save her.
But what if love is what sets her free?

Thoughts of Loving You
In a world built on quiet compromises and unanswered prayers, Dr. Cattlea Sarmiento never imagined that loving someone like Gab Morales would cost her everything-her peace, her credibility, and nearly, herself. Ten years ago, she walked away from the man who couldn't protect her when the world turned cruel. And for a decade, she stayed gone. Until one ordinary day, fate-unforgiving and unapologetic-brought him back. The years haven't erased the damage or dulled the ache. Gab is no longer the boy who stayed silent, and Cattlea is no longer the woman who waited to be chosen. But the thoughts of loving him-the ache, the sweetness, the fear-return with brutal clarity, refusing to be silenced. "But if the thoughts of loving you still linger... does that mean the love never left at all?"Complete

He hides behind sarcasm and long sleeves, drifting through school like he's just passing through. Ava tells herself not to care. But then he looks at her. And she sees it, the pain he tries to bury, the secrets he pretends don't exist, the loneliness he carries like a shadow. When they're forced to work together for a class project, Ava slowly discovers the truth he hides from everyone else: Liam doesn't let people close. Because the last time he did... it destroyed him. What begins as awkward teamwork turns into late-night conversations, shared moments, and quiet confessions neither of them meant to say out loud. They're not supposed to fall for each other. They're not even supposed to be friends. But some connections don't care about rules. As Ava gets pulled deeper into Liam's world and the complicated, fragile life he tries so hard to manage, she realizes there's more at stake than just her heart.

Lucien was trained to protect, not to care. But the more time he spends with Delilah, the more her quiet strength pulls at something buried deep inside him. She's nothing like the people he's guarded before-fragile but fierce, afraid but still standing. As danger closes in and long-buried truths surface, Lucien must decide: walk away like he always has-or risk everything for the one person who made him feel at home.Complete
