Chroma Hearts Goes Global: My Psychological Thriller Reaches the 2025 Frankfurt Book Fair

I’m beyond thrilled to share a milestone moment in my writing journey! 

My psychological thriller novel, Chroma Hearts, is officially part of the Frankfurt Book Fair 2025 — the world’s largest and most prestigious international trade fair for books, held from October 19–25, 2025 at the Frankfurt Trade Fair in Germany.

This year, Filipino literature proudly takes the global stage, and I’m honored that Chroma Hearts stands among an incredible lineup of books by talented Filipino authors. A million thanks to Jane Vergara for making this possible.

Filipino Stories at the Frankfurt Book Fair

The Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse) is not just a marketplace for books — it’s a global celebration of culture, creativity, and collaboration.

This year, I’m proud to stand alongside brilliant Filipino authors whose works span every imaginable genre — from romance and poetry to fantasy, nonfiction, and literary fiction. Together, we’re proving that Filipino storytelling is vibrant, diverse, and ready to connect with readers everywhere.

A huge thank-you to Jane Vergara, NBDB Philippines, and everyone who continues to champion Pinoy indie and multi-genre authors on the international stage. 

A Dream Come True for a Filipino Multi-Genre Author

As a multi-genre Filipino author, my creative journey has always been guided by curiosity and heart—weaving stories that span romance, drama, action-adventure, and psychological thrillers.

Seeing Chroma Hearts travel beyond our shores and find its place in Frankfurt, Germany, feels surreal. It’s not just a personal achievement; it’s a reminder that Filipino stories belong on the world stage, no matter the genre.

Every book we create carries a piece of our identity, culture, and resiliency, and I’m deeply grateful to be part of this collective effort to showcase the richness of our storytelling tradition.

About Chroma Hearts

Chroma Hearts is a psychological thriller that explores the fragile boundaries between love, obsession, and madness.

At its core, it’s a story about how trauma colors perception—how grief, guilt, and desire can twist reality until it’s almost unrecognizable. It’s dark, emotional, and deeply human, but one that allowed me to dive into the raw complexities of the human mind.

If you love stories that keep you questioning what’s real—with characters who haunt you long after the last page — then Chroma Hearts is for you.
