I was born and raised in the Queen City of the South, the oldest city, with the oldest street, and the first Spanish settlement in the Philippines, Ciudad sa Sugbo, known to the rest of the world as Cebu City.
I am a first-generation Filipino-American, married to my Caucasian husband of more than thirty years, mom to three wonderful young men, oldest and only sister to six brothers, and my mother’s only daughter.
The Fiancée received Honorable Mention in the BookFest Book Awards in the Fiction: Romance: Multi-cultural category.
Writing has been an integral part of my life. I cannot imagine it without being able to write. I am beyond thrilled and grateful to have been able to do so. When you read my books, expect to laugh, to cry, to be angry, to be frustrated, to be sad, to be happy, but most of all, expect to fall in love. I have written articles, short stories, essays, and scripts in the past and have published works in the Philippines and in the U.S. I have written books of Women’s Fiction, Poetry, Christian Romance, and most of all, Romance Fiction books about Filipino-American love stories, my favorite subject to write.
