Mariana Rivas is eighteen years old and has her whole life ahead of her.

Filomeno is fifty-two… and has spent his entire life learning to live in the shadows.

At the university, everyone knows him as the old janitor: a man marked by age, ugliness, and the silent contempt of those who believe that someone like him deserves nothing more than to exist.

But Mariana decides to see him differently.

What begins as a gesture of closeness soon challenges the unwritten rules of a society that judges what it does not understand: an age difference that scandalizes and a beauty that, for many, Filomeno has no right to touch.

Because loving Mariana means confronting something he always thought impossible: being worthy of being loved.

But when fear, desire, and the world's prejudices begin to close in on them… the question is no longer whether their love is real.

The real question is whether Filomeno will be able to accept it before destroying the only happiness he has ever had in his life.

The Old Janitor´s Son

Fil grew up under the shadow of a love that defied all prejudice.

His parents proved that even the most rejected man could be loved… but that story also left scars impossible to ignore.

Now, ill and facing his own frailty, Fil makes a cold and desperate decision: to marry without love. He seeks not companionship, but control. A wife who will accept his terms and ask no questions.

Laura is the chosen one.

Younger and scarred by years of abuse, accepting the deal seems to be the only way to escape the past that haunts her. Between them there are no promises, only an agreement born of necessity.

In a house full of luxuries, but empty of affection, they will both discover that the scars they tried to hide are the same ones that force them to look at each other face to face.

Because sometimes love is not a fairy tale, but an uncomfortable, imperfect, and profoundly human process that is born when someone finally decides to heal what no one else wanted to touch.

The Triumph of the Globin (Spanish Edition)

The goblins are disappearing.

Driven from their home and doomed to extinction, they all abandon the dark forest… except one.

Trasppty was never like the others. Too clumsy, too ugly even for his own kind, he refuses to accept his fate. Desperate to survive, he resorts to ancient, forbidden arts to bind his life to that of a human woman.

Daniela carries a past of abandonment and betrayal that forced her to flee. Becoming the wife of a creature who embodies her worst fears is a fate she never would have chosen. However, under the influence of an ancient magic she cannot fight, her initial revulsion begins to mingle with a dark and inescapable desire.

Between desire, resentment, and a connection neither of them can understand, they will both discover that some bonds can change destiny… even when loving means learning to let go.

Because there are loves that are not demonstrated by possessing the other, but by having the strength to let go when love can become a curse.
