During the waning years of Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines, the story follows Josefina Amancio, a spirited and intelligent young woman from a humble provincial town. Raised in a family of principled ilustrados who quietly resist colonial oppression, Josefina lives a life of quiet defiance and hidden dreams. But everything changes when she meets Señor Álvaro de Herrera, a reserved yet idealistic Spanish officer newly stationed in the region.

What begins as mutual curiosity deepens into a dangerous, passionate affair, one that threatens not only their reputations but also Josefina's loyalty to her people, and Álvaro's standing in the colonial order.

As whispers of revolution grow louder and lines between loyalty and betrayal blur, Josefina must decide: is love a betrayal of her country, or could it be her own form of rebellion?All Rights Reserved

Rajah Versus Conquistador by kahlilcorazo

A King's Gambit. A Conqueror's Ambition. A Battle That Will Shape a Nation. 1521, Cebu. The great Rajah Humabon rules with cunning, strength, and the favor of his ancestors. But when strange ships appear on the horizon-led by a man named Ferdinand Magellan-his world is thrown into chaos. These men bear steel, cannons, and a faith unlike any other. They speak of a God who rules over all kings. They promise alliance, power, and destiny. Yet in this land, power is never given-it is taken. As Humabon plays a deadly game of diplomacy and survival, a rival warrior, Lapulapu, rises to challenge both king and conqueror. Loyalties shift, swords are drawn, and an empire stands ready to claim the islands. But in a world where betrayal is a weapon as sharp as any blade, who will emerge victorious? Written by Kahlil Corazo, whose scholarly work lies at the intersection of the psychopathic Southeast Asian strongman and René Girard's scapegoat mechanism, Rajah Versus Conquistador is shaped by the author's deep connection to this history-having grown up in Pari-an, downtown Cebu, the heart of what was once Humabon's domain. For fans of Shogun, Dune, and speculative historical fiction, this gripping novel brings to life the forgotten struggle for the Philippines-a true game of thrones played not in fiction, but in history.

When the Past Meets Her by huvkrd

Mira Santiago is a modern Filipina-smart, sarcastic, and far too busy for love. But when a mysterious mirror from her family's past pulls her into the year 1885, she finds herself in a world of corsets, colonizers, and quiet rebellion. There, she meets Elias Ramos-a principled ilustrado preparing to leave for Europe. He's all logic and duty. She's chaos wrapped in lip gloss. But fate doesn't care about timelines. And history doesn't like being rewritten. Credits Inspired by Maria Clara at Ibarra and Moments of Love (2006). Written purely for fun.
