"It's not true what they say, that you'll clear your mind of everything after each visit. Well, on second thought they're right, but they're missing one point. The dreams clear your mind while your heart gets all the remnants."
~Ylian Lareza

Book 3: She Was Ylian: Beyond Paninap
The novel depicts the strong will of a young woman, trying to succeed in life, her failures and frustrations that lead her to becoming a more determined individual. The warmth of a family's love, the sweetness of friendship, the results of having a trustful heart - are just a few of the book's highlights.
Until one day, when all of her aspirations are at hand, life itself turns her down. This time, being just determined is not enough. She needs resiliency, courage, and an undying hope to go on. She meets young adults like her in Paninap, and together they try to figure out how the saddest fate bestowed upon them can be turned into something fulfilling.
