Christmas Santa Inflatables

Ang nobelang ito ay pagbalik-tanaw sa taong 1884 kung saan ang Pilipinas ay nasa pamumuno pa ng kahariang Espanya. Ang kuwentong ito ay tungkol sa isang Italyano-Pilipinong mestisa na gustong ibaon sa limot ang pagiging isang bampira at ninais mamuhay ulit ng karaniwan bilang isang tao. Mula sa mga magagandang kuwento ng kanyang yumaong ina, naisipan ni Carmela Salvanza na manirhan at simulan uli ang ibig na pangkaraniwang pamumuhay sa isang bansang tinawag na Felipinas (dating pangalan ng Pilipinas noon), sa bayang ipinangalang Santa Lucia kung saan ang siyang lupang tinubuan ng kanyang ina. Lingid sa kaalaman na siya ay isang bampira, tinanggap siya ng kanyang nag iisang tiyuhin na si Don Graciano Agoncillo kung saan naman nakilala niya at naranasan ang mainit na pagtanggap nang masaya at karaniwang pamilya nito. Nakilala din ni Carmela ang isang Kastila-Pilipinong mestiso na si Eduardo Ramirez na siyang naging kanyang irog at pinakatatanging minamahal. Ngunit sa buong akala ni Carmela ay nalalasap na niya ang inaasam-asam na pamumuhay bilang tao ulit dahil sa nararanasang init ng pagtanggap ng isang pamilya at sa masaya't puno ng pagmamahal na pag-ibig , siya ay madadala sa isang malagim at nakatagong lihim ng Santa Lucia, ang mga sekreto ng mga sumpa at dugo na itinago ng maraming nagdaang taon.

Santa Maria Deogracia. Despite being given that name, she is not filled with grace, and she is far from holy.  She is feral, rebellious and arrogant. She felt unfortunate her whole life. Poor and born from an affair between her father and his mistress. A child that no one wanted. A bastard hated by the legal family.  But her life took an unexpected turn when she got entangled with a man called Hellion. Witnessing a gruesome crime and the next thing she knew, she was already under him, moaning, catching her breath while chanting his name—spending a hot night with an enigmatic drop dead gorgeous man with a dangerous allure and piercing stares that weakened her knees. Only to find out the next morning that he is actually that infamous ruthless billionaire, 15 years older than her at that; Lazarus Lombardi.  With her life filled with twists and turns, she never expected to get entangled with him even more when he offered her a job—to be his sex slave. Having a secret relationship, that is wrong yet it felt so right—he became her solace.  Desperate to escape in her toxic home, she married him eventually, thinking that it was the right decision.  Or so she thought. . .  Little does she know, her decision is merely an illusion, shattering her newfound happiness. As she delves deeper into the darkness lurking within him—Unveiling the truth, secrets and betrayals. . .  Leading her to escape from his suffocating grasp.  Santa Maria thought she had finally escaped his clutches, only to find herself entangled in his web once more, years later. And escaping him again is the furthest thing from his mind, not with the obsessive mafia boss; Lazarus Lombardi. Will she ever break free from his grip? or will she remain forever trapped in his twisted embrace?

Tatlong araw pa lang nagtatrabaho sa kompanya si Cresilda ay hindi na niya maiwasan ang hindi mainis sa boss nila. Ubod ito ng sungit, at hindi man lang ngumingiti. Parating galit at perfectionist pa. Kaya naman ng dumating ang araw ng ika-78th anniversary party ng kompanya ay wala siyang balak na dumalo.
