Aya is miserable at her job. She's thinking of quitting, but can't seem to realize the idea, until she comes across a newspaper editorial telling her exactly to do just that.
She knows the editorial is not written for her, but it sounds like it is written by her. The words, the emotions feel like hers.
Maybe Modern Mr. Darcy, the editorial's author, has some sort of magical superpower.
Inspired by the editorial, Aya goes from quitting her job, to flying to Batanes for a must-needed vacation.
There she meets Marco, a carefree guy who gets high with adventure and who appears to be someone she can have a no-strings-attached kind of fun.
Because what happens in Batanes stays in Batanes.
Or not.

Found in Darkness
A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.
