Title Reveal: #ProjectIsagani is LOVE AS YOU ARE!

Because you don’t need to change a thing,
to mask your flaws,
to be someone else
to love
and be loved.

LOVE AS YOU ARE is a contemporary romance novel about thirty-somethings Isagani and Moe, who try to figure out their feelings for each other, and heal their inner child in the process. The book is set in the Philippines, in the first half of 2022, when the world was just beginning to open up and Filipinos were feeling hopeful about change.

This book is for
🍩 all the panganays who had to grow up so fast
🍩 anyone who’s ever been ridiculed for their looks
🍩 hopeless romantics who still believe in love
🍩 romance fans who don’t mind a bit of spice
🍩 everyone who’s simply looking for a light and (mostly) fluffy read

The book comes out in August! In the meantime, if you are interested in an ARC, the sign up form will be open until June 29 only.

Hello, I’m looking for ARC readers!

I feel like I’ve been talking about this book forever, but I have been working on it for forever (six years on and off, actually), and now I’m finally really really close to releasing it!

The book I’m talking about is #ProjectIsagani (actual book title to be revealed soon), AKA the book where Pio (Like Nobody’s Watching) and Datu’s (Keeping Miss Kalila) big brother gets his HEA. I’m planning to release it mid-August and I’m looking for ARC readers!

This book is for you if you are into contemporary romance and:

  • Filipino characters in their 30s (she’s 36, he’s 37)
  • eldest children of Filipino families and their emotional journeys
  • awkward meet-cutes that turn into friendship, then something more
  • a fitness buff hero who helps the heroine get in shape for an upcoming date but ends up falling for her
  • a forever single heroine who thinks her workout buddy is completely out of her league

Are you the person I’m looking for? If so, please sign up for an ARC here. Please take note of the CWs and other details on the page.

Applications will be screened and approved applicants will be receiving the ARC around the end of June or early July 2026.

Thank you very much in advance, and I can’t wait to share Isagani’s story with you all! <3
