A Place in Time (PUBLISHED 2013)
Language: English
Synopsis:
Shaylie is a typical fifteen-year-old girl from a religious family. Terrence, on the other hand, is not your average boy.
To Shaylie, Terrence has always been the enigmatic, aloof, talented and temperamental older brother of her best friend, who has never given her a second look. Until they are thrown together in a date.
Their first date sparks an unlikely romance that confuses Terrence, who has long pushed people away because of a secret he has kept throughout his life. But Shaylie is patient with him, giving him a chance to feel things he has never felt with anyone else before.
Will they overcome the challenges that stand in the way of their budding love? Or will a happy ending ultimately be too much to ask for?

A Place in Time: Take Two (PUBLISHED 2014)
Language: English
Synopsis:
After losing Terrence, her first love, to an illness, Shay begins to believe that she can't fall in love again. She holds on to a sketch of Terrence's best friend, "Nathan" and looks for him just as she had promised Terrence.
Much to her surprise, she meets "Nathan" when she enters her new school, Trinity High. But "Nathan" introduces himself as Jiroh and denies knowing anyone named Terrence. Thus begins the story of Shay and Jiroh, a boy whose past is inexplicably tied to her own and whose present offers a possibility of a new love. "I'm another 'what if, Shay," Jiroh says.
Will Shay let herself fall in love again or will she hold on to her past with Terrence? Can one really move on from one's first love?

The Sacred Rule of Love (Published 2019)
Language: Taglish (Tagalog/English)

Zoe Aldana cannot catch a break.
In her anger and grief, she summons the man in her portraits - ang kaniyang guardian angel na si Alexus. As she tries to learn why her angel manifested himself, a young man named Jax enters the picture. Jax - like Zoe - is an Oculus, a person who can see angels and ghosts. Things start to take a toll when a ghost sought for Zoe's help, and she failed to meet her end of the bargain. With her life in constant motion and danger, kakailanganin ni Zoe na makaraos sa tulog ni Alex at Jax - if they can last two seconds without getting on each other's nerves.
Ultimately in a battle between her heart and mind, Zoe must choose: follow the rules or break the sacred rule of love.
