____________________________________________

Amaera Guevarra is a passionate History major who believes the past belongs in textbooks... until it swallows her whole.

On a field trip to San Isidro, Amaera slips near a river just as a rare comet blazes across the sky. Almost drowning and gasping for air, she soon finds herself in 1896, on the verge of the Philippine Revolution and in the body of Isadora, daughter of Don Gregorio Zamora. There, she meets Juan Felipe, a wealthy ilustrado secretly aiding the uprising.

Though she knows how stories like this end, and with someone else waiting for her in the present, she still couldn't help but fall for a man she wasn't meant to meet.

And when the comet returns, Amaera wakes up: in her time, in her body, and once again in someone else's arms. But with no sign of what became of Felipe.

Only an old letter.
His name on the archives.
And a truth she can't speak.

This is a story across time - of devotion, longing, and war - of a heart caught between a man lost to history, and the man it left in the present.
