Aurora Deveraux ha trascorso la vita sotto una campana di vetro, protetta da un cognome che pesa quanto un'armatura e da una famiglia che ha scambiato il controllo per amore. Quel guscio dorato va in frantumi quando si ritrova pedina di un accordo che non ha firmato: un matrimonio con Ethan Valtieri. Per il mondo, lui è l'erede perfetto; per lei, è l'incarnazione di tutto ciò da cui ha sempre cercato di scappare. Ethan non è un cattivo da romanzo, ma un uomo che ha imparato a respirare solo in apnea, tra giochi di potere e una freddezza che usa come scudo. Non cerca una moglie, cerca un equilibrio, e Aurora è l'imprevisto che non sa come gestire. Tra i due non c'è una pace immediata, ma una guerriglia fatta di silenzi taglienti e sguardi che dicono troppo. Costretti a condividere una quotidianità che nessuno dei due ha scelto, la loro reciproca avversione inizia a mutare in qualcosa di più viscerale e complicato. Non è amore, almeno non ancora: è la strana attrazione tra due persone che si riconoscono nelle proprie ferite. La resistenza di Aurora non fa che smantellare le certezze di Ethan, mentre lui, con la sua presenza ingombrante, costringe lei a guardare in faccia i propri desideri repressi. In un gioco di specchi dove l'odio si confonde pericolosamente con il bisogno dell'altro, Aurora e Ethan dovranno decidere se continuare a farsi la guerra o cedere a quel legame che sta lentamente ridisegnando i confini delle loro vite. Saranno capaci di abbassare le difese prima che la loro stessa intensità finisca per consumarli?

Allison Monroe, a passionate college student of a Pre-Law course in University of the Philippines Diliman, come to believe that destiny no longer exists in our world. On the other hand, a happy-go-lucky guy which happened to be her classmate in college was amused by her beauty and brains. They started in not-a-very-good condition, because Allison hated Ryan the first time she have met him. It was love at first fight. As time passes by, the two has been playing with destiny, and started to fall for each other. But, it was not a good fairytale story to tell. Things has been complicated with the two of them, and the truth has started to unravel. There was familiarity in their warmth like they had met when they were younger. It's like they had loved each other at a different moment. At a different world. "Nothing changed. You were still the jerk I once knew, Jace," Allison uttered with full of sarcasticity. She couldn't believe it. She couldn't help but to laugh at herself for letting him fool her again. "I have no intention of fooling nor hurting you, I swear. Hear me out this time, Allison, please?" Ryan pleaded. "There's no point of hearing your stupid explanations, Ryan. You know I only seek for truth, and now that I know the truth, I can't let myself be fooled by you again." She turned her back at him. She never imagined that they could be played by Cupid twice. Love isn't all about happy endings. Sometimes, it could be tragic. But it may be tragically beautiful. And while Allison is slowly walking away from the place where Ryan is standing, she have thought of something she could do to save herself this time. She would do the first move to avoid pain. She would do the only thing she could do to not be hurt by the same guy again. She'd leave for good. On Allison's seat, she was watching the plane to take its flight to her Aunt's neighborhood, but she have mumbled last two words, "Fuck love."
