When Elise's family hires Ravi as their private driver, what starts as polite distance softens into small shared moments and unspoken glances. Bound by circumstance and held back by life's realities, their connection exists only between stops-fleeting, fragile, and quietly unforgettable.

That summer in Tuscany - a windy day
A soul-searching romance about grief, growth, and a brain that won't slow down. Olivia is thirty, neurodivergent, and tired of pretending she's fine. Her relationship is falling apart, the tenth anniversary of her mother's death is looming, and a late ADHD diagnosis has turned her world upside down. In a bold attempt to reclaim her life, she escapes to a remote Tuscan Agriturismo where the silence, sunlight, and strangers offer unexpected comfort. Among the vineyard walks and shared meals, Olivia meets James, a quiet Englishman with his own reasons for running. Slowly, something between them begins to shift. This is not just a love story - it's a story about many kinds of love: romantic, familial, platonic, and the hard-won love of self. If you've ever felt too much, thought too fast, or loved too deeply - Olivia's journey will stay with you. Perfect for fans of messy healing, soft romance, and summer air that smells like change. Note: This novel explores ADHD through lived experience, not clinical definition.Complete

Before You Said It
Some people belong to the summer, to the ocean air and the secrets hidden in small towns. Ridge feels like one of them. And against my better judgment, I'm drawn to him in every quiet glance and lingering word. But Avery is my best friend, my only constant. And I know wanting him means losing her. Still, every time I look at Ridge, I wonder: is it already too late to stop?Complete
Unread
When Hanni comes back, everything is different. Minji's still Minji-organized, untouchable, in control-but the silence between them feels louder than it ever did before. An unsent text, a chance encounter, and a group of friends who know more than they say. It's about the things left unsaid, the messages you type but never send, the people you leave but never stop loving.Complete
We Never Planned This
Set over a summer of late-night hangouts, quiet reunions, and unexpected glances, this is a slow-burn journey through old connections reigniting, friendships shifting, and the blurred lines between what's casual and what might be something more. It captures the kind of feelings that build in the background - the ones you don't see coming until they've already taken hold.
Balot, Taho, Fishball, and the Things We Never Said
Some stories are whispered over streetlights and silence. Elise knew what it meant to be present but never chosen. Caleb knew what it meant to be needed, but never truly wanted. In the chaos of Quezon City, where voices drown in jeepney horns and life moves too fast to notice the quiet ones, two almost-invisible souls cross paths in the middle of a shift, over a tray of fries, and slowly inevitably begin to see what the rest of the world missed. Surrounded by broken friendships, heavy family baggage, and dreams put on pause, Elise and Caleb build something out of leftovers of glances, late-night taho, shared umbrella walks, and words unsaid. This is a love story for the ones who weren't seen, but stayed anyway. Who carried the weight without asking for praise. Who found, in each other, a place to rest. Because sometimes, home isn't a house. It's the one person who finally hears you, even in your quietest voice.Complete
