They say broken girls only get broken until there are no fragments left.
Maria April Daez comes from a broken family. Lumaki siya kasama ang ina at bagong pamilya nito ngunit nang mag-senior high school ay bigla na lang siyang ipinatapon nito sa Dumaguete kung saan nakatira ang kanyang ama. Her life completely changed as he met her estranged father, who is a fisherman.
Isang kahig-tuka ang naging pamumuhay nila ngunit ayos lang sa kanya dahil doon niya naramdaman ang tunay na pagmamahal ng isang pamilya. Hindi man marangya pero masaya siya at pangako niya na gagawin niya ang lahat para mabigyan nang maayos na pamumuhay ang kanyang ama. Hanggang sa nakulong ito dahil sa pagnanakaw ng gamot nang magkasakit si Maia. Worse, he was even framed for a crime he didn't commit.
Sa mundong hindi abot ng mahihirap ang hustisya, hindi man lang makalaya ang kanyang ama. Kaya naman, ginawa ni Maia ang lahat upang makatapos ng kolehiyo. Eventually, she got accepted into Silliman University College of Law, forcing her to juggle both work and her studies.
She knew what she wanted-to become a lawyer and be the voice for those people the justice system had long forgotten.
Just that.
Not until she ranked first in their batch during her first year-catching the attention of Emilio Lorenziano de Gallo, her academic rival and the top scorer in the law school entrance exam.
"They say when you make girls fall for you and break their hearts, they get distracted. So let me make you fall for me, then break your heart-so I can take back that first spot," Emilio says.
But what can he break when she's already in pieces?
