"Behind the Broadcast" is a Taglish romance-drama-comedy series told from the perspective of Isla Navarro, a once-beloved actress whose life turns upside down after a scandal forces her out of the spotlight. A year later, she finds herself back on screen-but this time, not in showbiz. She's the new co-anchor of the country's biggest primetime news show.
Across from her on the news desk sits Damian Reyes, the nation's most respected-yet most emotionally frozen-anchor. He's all about ratings, credibility, and control. She's chaos, charm, and sunshine personified.
What begins as a disastrous on-air partnership soon turns into something more-filled with witty banters, late-night rehearsals, and quiet moments that uncover the pain behind their smiles. As Isla learns to see beyond Damian's cold exterior, she realizes he's not just a man lost in headlines-he's someone searching for himself, too.
In a world that demands perfection, can two people-flawed, healing, and real-learn to love not just each other, but the versions of themselves they tried to hide behind the broadcast?

Les Lettres que Je n'ai Jamais Données (Isla Series #2）
Isla Series #2 The quiet ache of what was never said defines Rhys Callie and Aris Cole, two souls bound by years of effortless friendship that slowly unraveled under the weight of unspoken truth. Once inseparable, they were the kind of pair that existed in a rhythm only they understood - laughter echoing in empty streets, shared silences speaking louder than words. But beneath their easy closeness, something fragile lingered - feelings neither dared to name, afraid that confession might shatter what comfort they already had. Aris, unable to bear the growing tension, distanced himself under the guise of moving on. That was when he met Isla - gentle, bright, and everything he thought he needed to forget. With her, he sought refuge from the ghost of Rhys's absence, convincing himself that new affection could erase old ache. Yet, every moment with Isla only reminded him of what he was running from - the depth, the familiarity, the unspoken love that still tied him to Rhys. When the truth finally surfaced, it was too late. Isla's heart broke from being someone's escape, and Rhys's from realizing that silence had cost them everything. What remained was a friendship turned to ruin - two people standing in the wreckage of what could have been, haunted by the love they never said aloud. Their story became a quiet tragedy - not of betrayal, but of hesitation. A reminder that sometimes, the words left unsaid are what destroy us most.Complete

Radio Hearts
Radio Hearts is a youth romance set in 2006 at Green High School, a quiet campus in a small town where the broadcasting club once recorded a weekly radio show that reached every classroom-and sometimes, the heart. Mika de Guzman only joined the broadcasting club in her third year, thinking it would just be another creative outlet. But the moment she stepped into that dusty recording booth, everything began to change. Her feelings for Kai Mendoza-the quiet, brilliant sound tech-started to unfold in ways she couldn't control. Caught between the familiar comfort of Kenji Yamada, her childhood friend who's always been by her side, and the silent pull of Kai, who hides more than he reveals, Mika is torn between two frequencies of love. As the trio navigates the chaos of teenage friendships, awkward broadcasts, and late-night editing sessions, they're also learning to speak their truths-on air and off. But when the microphones turn off, their hearts make the loudest noise. The radio becomes a metaphor for everything they can't say out loud: emotions transmitted but often misheard, signals full of longing and confusion, voices that echo across emotional distance. In a story about unspoken feelings, secret confessions, and the messiness of growing up, Radio Hearts captures the vulnerability and wonder of falling in love, finding your voice, and tuning in to what really matters. Will Mika listen to her heart before the signal fades? Off air, it's all about the heart.💜 ____________________________________________Complete
