The Aragons #2: Behind My Sister's Shadow
She became his bride, but never his first choice.
"He married me because he didn't get to marry my sister, Gracie."
Ann Marie grew up behind her older sister's shadow. She is the wild child - always the wild card sa lahat ng bagay. On the other hand, Gracie is the perfect daughter, the one who always gets what she wants without even trying.
For Annie, everything she has, she worked hard for. She always had to go the extra mile para lamang mapansin ng mga magulang nila.
Ganito rin pagdating kay Mario. He is one of her childhood friends, and she had the biggest crush on him noong bata pa sila - until her sister decided she liked him too.
Pinaubaya na niya si Mario kay Gracie, knowing she didn't stand a chance. They loved each other and were about to get married.
She thanked her lucky stars when Keno came back and swept Gracie away, leaving Mario brokenhearted.
Akala niya magiging smooth‑sailing ang lahat. She would be his shoulder to cry on, and she would make him fall in love with her every single day. But no - may ibang plano ang tadhana... or better yet, may plano sila habang nasa impluwensiya ng alak.
The plan? Mario would still go through with the wedding - but this time, Annie would be the bride.
