She tears down political empires with a pen. He was born to inherit one. At thirty, fearless investigative journalist Risa Hontiveros targets the powerful elites no one else dares to question. At twenty-eight, Mayor Sherwin "Win" Gatchalian is a charming dynasty heir-and politics' most eligible bachelor-thoroughly bored by his privileged world. When a reckless whim traps Win on a stalled commuter train, an explosive clash with Risa sparks an unexpected obsession. What starts as a volatile clash in a stalled train car quickly turns into a dangerous, magnetic game of cat-and-mouse across backroom galas, rain-soaked streets, and quiet midnight truces-forcing a powerful heir to question the system he rules, and a guarded woman to discover if love can fit into a life built on fighting.
The Years Between
There are confessions that are uttered way too late. For many years now, Senator Risa Hontiveros has used her voice to fight for the Filipino people. Bold in debate, resolute in principle, and always truthful. There is one thing, however, that she has yet to say aloud. It only takes Risa much effort to confess her love to Senator Sherwin Gatchalian, but fate says it all first. "She finally said yes." Having heard that her lover has finally found himself another, Risa keeps her feelings hidden behind a façade of a smile and decides to preserve their friendship instead. In a place where every word matters and every decision is life-changing, the most painful regret could just be an unconfessed confession. Sometimes, the greatest struggles aren't fought in the session hall, but in the depths of the heart.
