What Do You Think Makes Us Free

Jane Duncan is able to secure a job at the best publishing company in the country, France Publishing, where she does her best to achieve her dream of becoming the best writer in the country. But what happens when Jane falls in love with her Superior? A love so strong that she's unable to set herself free from that, felt like she has been chained to him. That she would love him for the rest of her life as if she was bound to him. And what if a very determined ex-boyfriend comes into the picture? Will she be able to get the love she so yearns for or not? Will she be able to achieve her dreams? Have you ever fallen for someone so bad that it hurts? You get this burning sensation in your chest like someone is ripping your chest out, or maybe it's just your heart that's shattering into pieces bit by bit? Have you ever fallen for someone you knew it would be impossible to have, but you couldn't stop yourself from falling deeper? I know it sounds cliché and all, but that's how I feel right now. And the surprising part is that I don't know when it happened or how it happened, but it just did. ----Jane Duncan

Ang kuwentong ito ay tumatalakay kung paano nabuo ang "wagas na pag- ibig" sa pagitan ng dalawang puso na pinagtagpo at itinadhana sa maling panahon at maling pagkakataon. Dalawang puso na parehong nakatali sa mga sinumpaang pangako, ngunit pilit pa ring ipinaglalapit ng pag- ibig. Ngunit, paano na ang dalawang puso na nagmamahalan kung makakalaban nila ang Tadhana na hahadlang sa kanilang pag-iibigan na hindi maaaring sumibol sa lupa, sapagkat sa ibang panahon at pagkakataon sila nakatakdang magsama hanggang sa dulo ng walang hanggan? Hindi ito tipikal na istorya ng pag- ibig na kung saan "kapag mahal mo, ipaglalaban mo", bagkus sa kuwentong ito tuturuan ka ng hangganan kung hanggang saan ka lang dapat makipagbuno sa ngalan ng pag- ibig. Sa kabilang banda, hindi lamang umiikot sa pag- iibigan ng dalawang pangunahing karakter ang matutunghayan sa nobelang ito, dahil nakapaloob rin sa kathang ito ang pinakamataas na antas ng pag- ibig- ang pag-ibig sa Diyos, gayundin ang pagyakap sa sariling kasalanan, pagtanggap sa sariling kahinaan, kapatawaran sa kapuwa at sarili, at higit sa lahat, pagtuklas sa tunay na misyon o papel kung bakit ka naririto at nabubuhay pa sa mundo.

Ketika hidup penuh dengan problem yang ada, ketika hidup dicoba dengan beban yang berat, dan ketika diri sendiri mulai merasa mencapai titik letihnya dengan semua yang membebaninya apakah masih ada kebahagian yang boleh diharapkan. Adakah sedikit kebahagian untuk itu tidak apa dia datang terlambat, tidak apa juga harus bersabar lebih lagi yang pasti aku beraharap kebahagian itu ada untuk ku. Meskipun aku harus menunggu disini untuk itu.

Scarlett Rossi had felt nothing but devotion to Alexander Wolfe from the moment she met him but all he had ever seen her as was just a little girl that was never worth his attention. Now, years later, they are being forced to marry and he can't help but feel his attraction grow with every second he passes. Except he had broken her heart when she was younger and this time, has it guarded with iron walls.

Brandon Garcia made a biggest mistake of his life. He hurt and ruined the only woman that love him so much at the very crucial time of their relationship. He regretted his decision but he couldn't undo things that happened already. Feeling down and rejected she ran away from him. And now after four long years their path crosses again. She changed. Not the same Candice he used to know before. He realized that he love her still. But for her he was just a forgotten past.

10 years have passed and she got everything, so they said. A face that no one could ever deny its beauty, a body that makes men go crazy and a successful career in the legal profession. She has it all, except him- the man she so dearly loved but has to let go of for her to get all these things she has now. Cattaleya Rillera really thought then that it would be worth it. Afterall, she was only 17 at that time when an elderly couple chose her to be their adoptee. Hindi niya inakalang may magkakagustong ampunin pa siya dahil sa edad niya. When she reached the age of 16, hindi na siya nangarap pang may magkakainteres sa kaniyang maging parte ng kanilang pamilya dahil isang taon na lamang ay aalis na siya ng bahay-ampunan dahil magiging isang ganap na siyang maygulang. At ngayong may gusto siyang ampunin, hindi niya papalampasin. This is all she ever wanted. Lahat naman sila doon sa bahay-ampunan. Thus, she consented to such an adoption even if she would have to break her promise to the boy she loves- Caleb Sanchez- the boy she promised to marry when she left the orphanage. Isa ding orphan na naunang umalis ng orphanage dahil mas matanda ito sa kanya ng 2 years. Ang taong nangakong magsisikap para makapag-ipon at paghandaan ang kanilang pagsasama sa oras na umalis siya sa bahay-ampunan. Now that she has finally achieved the success of her chosen career, she thinks it's time to locate him. And if she succeeded, she could only pray that he was still single and that he would find it in his heart to forgive her.
