My Missing Piece (BHTWW Book2)

"Can a love that started at the wrong time survive when the timing is finally right?"

Ten years ago, Avvi Garriego was just a stubborn sixteen-year-old girl hopelessly in love with a man who would never look at her that way.

Damien Coronnel-an elite NBI agent, disciplined, distant, and far too old for the reckless feelings of a teenager who refused to leave him alone.

He told her to forget him.
So she left.

But forgetting him was the one thing Avvi never learned how to do.

Ten years later, she comes back to the Philippines no longer the impulsive girl Damien once dismissed as "that brat kid." She is now a military surgeon and a soldier, stronger, wiser, and more determined than ever.

And she has only one mission.
To find Damien.

But the man she remembers no longer exists.

After the infamous Quintin Case, Damien disappeared from the NBI, cut ties with everyone he once knew, and buried himself deep in the mountains as a soldier feared even by his own unit.

They say the captain stationed there is brilliant in the field.
They say he walks into danger like he's already made peace with death.

They say the man called **Captain Coronnel** isn't the same Damien Coronnel who once lived in the city.

But Avvi refuses to believe that.
Not after waiting ten years.

Now assigned to the same mountain unit where Damien commands, Avvi finds herself stepping into a world of war, secrets, and a man who has built walls stronger than any battlefield defense.

And when Damien finally sees her again-the girl he once told to forget him-
he will have to face the one thing he thought he had already buried.

Because Avvi didn't come back to remember the past.
She came back to fight for the future he tried to deny.

And this time- she's not leaving without him.
