After seven years of studying in Europe, a wealthy young gentleman by the name of Juan Crisostomo Ibarra returns to the Philippines, filled with hope and inspired by dreams for the betterment of the country. Armed with sheer determination and a firm and positive outlook on things, he commits himself to continuing his father's philanthropical work, pioneering projects aiming at the development of the people's welfare by providing means to education and livelihood. While there are people who are avid supporters of the young man's cause, there exists in the shadows an entity as dark and malicious as the abyss it came from, shrouded deeply by lies and deceit and the hypocrisy that spawned it, hell-bent on destroying everything that stood in its path...

Highest ranking: #1 in Teen Fiction -- "Sunshine, what guy do you know has a weird fetish with sign language?" She's the aftermath of a high school party nightmare. Tragedy robbed her of her innocence and stole her voice before she had the chance to speak out. The court called her a liar, and the guilty was set free. Now memories plague her mind and trap her in solitude. She was forced to learn sign language, struggling to find a way to voice her silence. He's the definition of the boy she tried to stay away from. The epitome of harsh rumors and hopeless fantasies. The source of lies and blame. He's analyzed, misunderstood, and utterly mysterious. And he may be the one to find her voice. When they meet, she gets accustomed to his arrogance and he gets accustomed to her silence. An essay is what brings them together, but what happens when he starts asking too many questions? Will her past continue to drag her down, or will he save her? Fate has a funny way of bringing people together, but it doesn't always work how it's supposed to. *different summary inside* "Perfect amount of tragedy, humor, and romance!" -Sparkles530 "I feel like I learned a lot from your story, thank you." - 980Sarah "This book is beautifully written.
