Nueva Ecija Series Defying Beliefs Hiraya Bella Alvarez was forced to take her summer vacation at her grandparents' home in Gapan City, where she spent her childhood years with her then-best friend and childhood sweetheart, Percival Cristobal. But she carries painful memories she'd rather not remember in that place, which made her not go back for so many years. On the other hand, Percival Cristobal believes that first love actually dies--that it was all just an experience and it should be left in the past . . . or so he thought. ___ Book cover illustrated by: @heynette ❤️
