Love can grow in the strangest places—like the back of a city cab.
Adrian Solano is a warm-hearted driver navigating the vibrant streets of La Costa Sierra in his aging Zeron X5. For him, every passenger carries a new story. For Marcy Rodriguez, a hardworking housekeeper far from home, it’s just another exhausting day—until a spontaneous ride with Adrian changes everything.
Their chance encounter leads to a whirlwind of unexpected adventures: exploring secret gardens, chasing ghost stories, helping at a chaotic noodle shack, and sharing quiet conversations beneath starlit skies. As laughter turns to trust and friendship deepens into something more, Adrian and Marcy find themselves caught between past wounds and present hope.
But in a world full of pressure, heartbreak, and hidden truths, can two people from such different worlds truly find a future together?
The Last Ride is a heartwarming romantic tale of courage, connection, and healing—where love finds its way through broken roads and everyday heroes.

Raquel Tellez Mamaril
Raquel T. Mamaril is a Filipino author, registered nurse, and teacher with 13 years of experience in international education. Her passion for storytelling began in primary school, where she started writing short stories and developed a deep love for reading—especially romantic comedies, thrillers, suspense, and horror. She is particularly drawn to narratives where characters form meaningful connections amidst chaos, finding beauty and strength in unexpected moments.
The inspiration for The Last Ride came from a heartfelt conversation with a taxi driver who shared a moving story about a passenger whose presence stayed with him long after the ride ended. That brief encounter sparked the idea for a novel centered around chance meetings, quiet resilience, and the everyday heroes we often overlook.
The Last Ride is her debut novel and a tribute to love, hope, and the simple moments that change everything.
