Under the hidden mango tree, surrounded by sugarcane fields, Ela and James made a promise. It was supposed to be silly-one of those childish dares that don't really mean anything. Whoever gives up first... loses. But as the years pass, their promise begins to feel less like a game and more like fate. Ela Martinez is bright, outspoken, and stubborn about everything-including her obsession with James Matthew Enriguez, the quiet genius who lives in his own world of numbers and secrets. He's the boy who sketches sunflowers in the margins of his notebooks, the boy who never breaks a promise, the boy who never lets her go. Together with their friends, Van Axel and Shiloh, they grow up sharing laughter, projects, late walks, and whispered confessions under that same mango tree. But love isn't always soft and easy. Sometimes it's heavy. Sometimes it's dark. And sometimes... it's a promise that someone intends to keep, no matter the cost.
