Afterglow Beneath the Typhoons

•Vows Quartet #2•

After a company scandal sends his reputation into ruins, DYLAN BARTOLOME REYES sets forth on a mission to redeem himself. Wanting to stay away from the public eye for the time being, he decides to head home to Munting Bangon, a small town he once knew. There he creates a goal: buy a piece of farmland and build his own architectural firm. But riddled with judgement and discrimination upon arrival at the sleepy village, Dylan finds it difficult to adjust to the ways of countryside life, alongside its colorful people and farm animals. The only one who seems welcoming of his presence is the jolly farm owner himself, Kapitan Ino Dimaguiba. The captain is gentle but tough as the village itself. And he isn't so keen on selling his agricultural landscape to some random city kid. Therefore he sets the boy on a task of his own: for three months, Dylan must work to court his only daughter, and maybe... gain her deliciously sweet, yes?

MAYLA JENNIFER DIMAGUIBA has long walked away from the provincial life. Living in Manila as a highly successful real-estate agent, there are only three things she craves most in life: money, sleep, and cold-hard justice. Nowhere does she have time to or the desire to fall in love. So when the opportunity to achieve all three things comes her way, she finds herself running back to the small town she despises with an objective of her own. The only problem is, one man who stands in her way. Dylan Reyes, the most controversial, ruthless, richest, and (admittedly) the hottest bachelor in the country!

Upon first meeting, it quickly becomes a game of cat vs. dog. Who can claim the land first? For Dylan, courting the captain's daughter is a nuisance task. For Mayla, blocking his attempts are less than ideal that could cost her millions.

Scandal. Revenge. And a deal sealed in gold. Winner takes all. It's all fun and games until one starts to lose...
