The Price of Us (Heartbeat Series #4)

Graciella Tori Esquivel has lived her whole life surrounded by wealth, privilege, and power. As the daughter of one of the most powerful and corrupt political figures in the Philippines, her name shines with power but is tainted by the sins of her family.

Far from her world is Fabio Rafael Mendez, a man who grew up in poverty. To him, corruption is the root of all his family's suffering, and people like Graciella are the enemy he swore never to forgive. He hates people like Graciella and the world she belongs to.

But destiny has other plans, hatred is no longer the only fire that burns between them. Behind Graciella's perfect image is a woman longing for freedom, and beneath Fabio's anger is a heart that should know better, but cannot stop beating for her.

To love each other means betrayal. To stay apart means heartbreak. And in a world ruled by greed and lies, their love could either set them free, or burn them alive.
