I never thought this day would come but somehow it did... Forbidden Kiss has  a 1001 UNIQUE ENGAGED READERS! And so happy this happened before the one year anniversary of the book! In honor to celebrate that I've finally taken the time to plot out and outline the standalone sequel to it, called Twisted Kiss which is out now! It's first two chapters are available to binge read and it will be updated weekly. Lots of love to all my Forbidden kiss readers thanks for helping me reach this milestone <33

Sorry for plugging here, author and friends! ☺️ If you don’t mind, I’d like to take a moment to share something close to my heart.  This is the story of my good friend, and I genuinely want to support her amazing work. She’s super talented and really passionate about writing, so I hope you can also give her story some love and support! 
          
          Her story is a Girl Love (GL) piece — Professor x Student trope, written beautifully in Taglish!  It’s full of emotions, kilig, and lessons that will surely touch your heart. Whether you’re into slow-burn romances, complex characters, or stories that make you feel seen, this one’s definitely worth the read. 
          
          Please visit her profile @Lemonade1298 or click the link below if you want to check it out and read her story!

          More power to you, TIASM author, and to all your wonderful readers!

A very very happy 2026 everyone! Manifesting everyone writes the story they want to, get that word count locked in and the algorithm gods bless all of us with some readers hahaha! 
          But in all seriousness, I hope everyone has a good time with their family and loved ones. I completed Stranger Things and I’m not okay.

@anneperaltanovels Happy new year, Annie. I wish you the same. ❤️❤️

Hi Anne Peralta,
          
          I'm exploring new stories to add to my reading list and I came across yours. I would love to do a read for read and a comment for comment for one of your stories. If you would be willing to do the same for one of mine?

Guys the first chapter of Twisted Kiss (standalone sequel to Forbidden Kiss) is out! If you enjoy tropes like bodyguard romance, secret heiress, rags to riches, enemies with benefits, grumpy bodyguard x sunshine heiress. This one might be for you and it is much more romance heavy and spicy than Forbidden Kiss. So tune in to discover the setup of the new book <33

Congratulations! That’s on my bookshelf and I’m going to bump it to the top. Sounds like a very interesting concept. I’ve been researching the 20s for a historical piece which I would like to write one day. My dad served in World War II so that is kind of in his time. It is a fascinating period in history for me. I’m currently reading a book called anything goes about that period. If you remember some of the books you used for research, please let me know.

some imp updates.
          this feels a little surreal to write, but a lot has been happening offline. my college journey is finally coming to an end, I’m in my last year, standing right at the edge of a new chapter. and somehow, against all my fears and late-night doubts, I landed the job of my dreams… I’m going to be a DATA ANALYST at a giant tech consulting firm.
          
          once I fully step into it as an intern (summer of '26), life is going to get busy,  in a good way, I hope, but it also means I won’t have as much time to write as I used to and that’s why I wanted to share this now, while my heart is still full and a little shaky:
          
          I’m announcing the sequel to Forbidden Kiss. Well… not exactly a direct sequel, more like a standalone set in the same universe. New characters, new chaos, new tension, but yes, Xavier will be back, playing a pretty important secondary role.
          
          The book is called Twisted Kiss, and finishing it means a lot to me (hopefully by July end). it might even be one of my last stories on Wattpad for a while as I adjust to this whole “grown-up corporate life” thing. I’m moving out of my parents’ place soon too, into a whole new city. it’s exciting, terrifying, and overwhelming all at once.
          
          I’ve got a lot on my plate right now, but I’m committed to this. Twisted Kiss will start releasing with regular weekly updates on January 3, 2026.
          
          I’m honestly emotional writing this because it feels like both an ending and a beginning. My writing and I have grown so much, and you guys have been there through every messy draft and little milestone.
          
          I hope to see you all in the sequel. I’ll do everything I can to complete it on time.
          the main characters of Twisted Kiss were already introduced in the epilogue of Forbidden Kiss, you can find the link below. <33

@wcdukes yeah I agree maybe after a year or two once I am more settled I'll get back to writing hehe but yeah, your journey is so inspiring and omg what a coincidence that my next book's lead is actually a paralegal haha! Thanks so much for the advice and the kind words <3 I'm looking forward to work :))

That is so awesome. You are going to love it. You’ll find time to write. If not at first eventually. I’m a litigation support analyst for a large international law firm. I help put out productions and managed large databases for multijurisdictional litigation. I started with a theater degree, became a paralegal, hated it, went off on the school, which denied me a scholarship, even though two of the teachers said my essay on ethical euthanasia was one of the best they had read so they gave me a job in their computer lab teaching legal research software. Parlayed that into a job at a small boutique law firm and eventually the current job I’ve had now for over 25 years that I’ll be hopefully retiring from in another couple. Data analysis is challenging, but it’s never a dull minute. Good luck. But if you’re like me, those voices will keep you awake at night and eventually those characters will demand you start putting their words back on paper again. I have faith that you can do both. Exceptionally well. I found that  coupling the logic from my masters in IT  I got later while fighting imposter syndrome with my theater background has actually improved my writing immensely.
