Taming Thunder: The Gigi Story

She was born into a house full of men who called love a game—and women the prize. But Gigi Santiago refuses to play by their rules. Raised by a lineage of womanizers—her father, brother, uncles, even her grandfather—Gigi has built herself into a fortress of independence, brilliance, and unapologetic fire. She has seen what love does: how it manipulates, replaces, and forgets. And she wants nothing to do with it. Until two men challenge her ironclad beliefs: Carlo “Caloy” Santiago, her boy best friend who’s always stayed in her corner—quiet, steady, patient. And Raymond Santillan, her dangerously charming boss who sees her as more than a rising star in the boardroom. As Gigi rises through the corporate world, outsmarts tradition, and fights to write her own definition of success, she is forced to confront a deeper truth: Strength isn’t just about walking away. Sometimes, it’s about choosing to stay—without losing yourself. Taming Thunder is a raw, powerful story of love on one’s own terms. It’s about inheritance, healing, and rewriting the narrative handed down through generations. A tale for anyone who’s ever mistaken anger for armor, and finally realized that true power doesn’t come from hating love—but from taming it.
