Summer taught her a lesson that she would carry for a lifetime.
Matilda Co didn't know what she was getting into after her mom sent her to her father's hometown one summer. She expected peace---a time when she could finally clear her slate and start anew before college starts. When Aris Bautista came into the picture, she had a sudden change of plans.
Going by the flow of the summer breeze turned the two's affinity into a whirlwind romance. Their days under the sun could not be compared. However, before they get caught in the wind shifting through the seasons, Matilda and Aris have to choose between love and convenience.
Do things, just like summer, have to end at all? Does love need to be tested against time and circumstance?

And it's been there for nearly fifteen years. He hasn't tried to read it. He can't. He won't. Because that one piece of paper is a large piece of his father -- someone he's never met and never will be able to meet. But as Leo finds himself heading to Whistler, BC to explore where his father was born and who he was before he died in a car accident, he begins to wonder if that bucket list could give him any clues. Aria Madden is the daughter of the now-retired, famous NHL player, Luke Madden. Anyone would consider that a lot to live up to, but Aria is content with her current position. In January, she'll be competing in the Winter Olympics for Canada's women's hockey team. Over the summer, she's going to be training in Whistler, BC with the rest of the team, all while staying at her aunt's house. But even though it seems like she has everything under control, Aria is stuck in a whirlwind of anxiety. While she's happy and excited that her hard work has paid off, she's worried she won't live up to her father's legacy. When Leo and Aria cross paths on a fateful summer day, they're thrown into the chaos of an unforgettable summer adventure -- filled with charming and mysterious people, astounding views, and alpine air. But as the summer continues on and the heat is amped up, undeniable chemistry begins to brew between the two of them. But what happens when summer ends and they have to go their separate ways?

Orange the Color of Sunset
Logline When Filipino American Cris and rural beauty Anna are drawn into a ten-day whirlwind romance, their short summer together unfolds as a love story for the Philippines, and years later, blossoms into a love story for God. ..... A deeply emotional romance novel... that absolutely subverts romance. ..... Synopsis "Orange, the Color of Sunset" explores the volatile, whirlwind relationship between Cris, a derisive, Manhattan-raised son of a powerful Philippine senator, and Anna, an academically accomplished yet fiercely guarded intellectual powerhouse rooted in her provincial community of Ilocos Norte. Their rapid summer romance escalates into intense ideological battles, reflecting deep class disparity, socio-political third-world corruption, and the resilience of the marginalized masses. Despite their abrupt and painful separation, their time together forces both characters toward significant personal transformation, in the hopes that, one day, their love may yet endure, for they are "just on Earth." ..... Romance, Subverted The "Meet Cute" -- There is nothing "cute" about their "meet." Their first conversation is her absolutely roasting him. A head-on collision between two wildly divergent worlds. The Simple, Innocent Rural Beauty -- There is nothing "innocent" nor "simple" about our rural girl. She's like a high-performance Ferrari who uses her beauty and brains for war. Rich Boy Saves Poor Girl -- Rich boy will not save the poor girl. Poor girl tries to save him... and fails. Spectacularly. A further subversion of the romance subversion. The Heroic Mantle -- Ultimately, the novel subverts itself, transferring the mantle of heroism from the lovers to the Dearest Friend, who then bestows it upon the smallest, the most humble, the least of us. .....

Don't Forget Me
Lux thought she knew exactly how this cruise would go: two weeks of awkward family dinners, no cell service, and way too much time to overthink the silence from the boy who stopped choosing her. She planned to keep her head down, her heart guarded, and her nose buried in a book. Then Colt stole it-and tossed it into the ocean with a smirk that would ruin everything. He's infuriating. Impossible. Completely unexpected. And exactly what she needed. From midnight conversations and stolen tequila to the kind of kisses that leave her breathless, Colt slowly becomes the person Lux didn't know she was waiting for. And maybe it's only supposed to last two weeks-but it's starting to feel like more. Because some people don't just pass through your life. Some people sink in. Stay. Change everything. And maybe, if she's brave enough, this cruise won't be where it ends. Maybe... it's just where it begins. - still being edited - - started 7.10.23- -finished 5.30.25- -Tropes: Forced close proximity Summer fling/romance Love at first sightComplete
The Right Angle of Love
They say that if you truly love someone, you will do everything for them, even if it hurts, even if it's wrong, and even if it's not what you need. ...... This story revolves around Crystella A. Castillo, a nonchalant but overreactive girl. She's a mix of silly and serious, a top-notcher in their school, but not the friendly type. She's sometimes shy, and whenever she gets heartbroken or having a problem, she ends up crying a lot. When it comes to love, sobrang malas niya, at least, that's what people say. Lagi siyang na-go-ghost, or minsan, hanggang talking stage lang, hindi na umaabot sa next level kasi bigla na lang hindi nagre-reply yung guy. But somehow, everything changes when a certain boy shows up. He is Kurt Matthew Dela Cruz III, a charming transferee who instantly catches everyone's attention. He's cute, friendly, a bit OA, playful, sporty, and also excels in academics. Sa mata ng iba, parang siya na yung "perfect guy." Interestingly, Kurt becomes Crystella's rival in academics, or at least, that's how it seems. They constantly compete, pushing each other to do better, even if neither of them admits it. They say that the more you hate someone, the deeper you fall for them. Pero totoo kaya yun? Will they feel it too? Magbabago kaya ang tingin nila sa isa't isa as time goes by? Crystella has always been searching for her "right angle" in life....her kind of love, the one that fits perfectly. Meanwhile, Kurt has been trying to find what's right for his own version of love. Will their paths align? Or will they remain two lines that never truly meet? Start: 05/10/25 End:...
