Between Two Worlds: Book One

By Jaycel Ibuan

What begins as a late-night livestream turns into a love that crosses oceans.

Eve, a British-Filipino chef living in the UK, never expected an online connection to change her life. Lonely after her parents leave the country and weary of routine, she meets Troy-consistent, kind, and impossibly devoted. What starts as casual conversation grows into a five-year long-distance relationship filled with promises, sacrifices, and annual reunions.

But Troy is hiding a truth that could destroy everything.

He is a CEO, heir to a powerful family bound by wealth, legacy, and unbreakable contracts. When Eve finally steps into Troy's world, she discovers love is not enough when tradition, expectations, and control stand in the way. Forced into a marriage he never chose, Troy disappears from her life-leaving Eve shattered by betrayal she never saw coming.

The man she loved married someone else.
He built a life without her.
He had a son.

Heartbroken but resilient, Eve chooses to heal. In walking away from the life she once dreamed of, she finds something deeper-real love, quiet strength, and a future built not on status, but sincerity.

Between Two Worlds is a powerful long-distance romance about love tested by distance, torn by duty, and redeemed by self-worth. A story of choosing peace over pain, and learning that the greatest love is the one that chooses you back.
