Ahtisa Manalo was supposed to be the star. The future CEO of their family's luxury resort empire, she spent months crafting the perfect rebrand-new look, new vision, new energy. But bookings were tanking. The resort, once exclusive and elite, was slowly being forgotten.
Desperate, her Lola made a call to an old connection-Yllana Aduana's father.
Now, Yllana-the country's reigning Miss Earth, high-fashion darling, media favorite-is being flown in as the new face of the resort. She gets the cameras, the luxury suite, the press coverage, and a fat paycheck.
And Ahtisa? She's stuck playing tour guide. Not by choice, but by bloodline-Her lola's orders.
Now the girl who should've been the resort's crown jewel is stuck escorting her pageant rival through every curated experience, influencer shoot, and press dinner... while swallowing the fact that she's been replaced.
Yllana thinks it's funny.
Ahtisa thinks it's war.
But the island has other plans.
Because one month in paradise?
It's more than enough time to blur the line between hate and something else entirely.
