“Natatakot
akong mabasa mo sa mga mata ko ang tunay na nararamdaman ko ngayon.
Baka malaman mo na unti-unting nagkakagusto na ako sa `yo.”
Kontento na si Hera sa buhay niya. Simple lang iyon ngunit masaya. She had a fulfilling life and a daughter she truly loved. Her daughter, Elida, was everything to her. Ito na ang naging buhay at kaligayahan niya mula nang ihabilin ito sa kanya ng yumaong kapatid niya. Hanggang sa dumating sa buhay nila si Xander, ang ama ni Elida. He made it clear to her that he would do everything to get his daughter back.
As hard as a stone, he vowed to take Elida away from her. Of course, she would never let that happen! She could never live without Elida kaya gagawin niya ang lahat huwag lang nitong kunin ang anak niya. Ngunit ano itong masamang biro ng tadhana? Bakit habang tumatagal na nakakasama niya si Xander ay tila nahuhulog ang loob niya rito? Papayag ba siya na pati puso niya ay tangayin na rin nito?

REVIEW
GENRE
Romance
PLOT
One of the more interesting plots around. And I think the author gave it justice, despite the predictable turn of events. It wasn't boring.
POINT OF VIEW
I liked the heroine's POV. It was clear and consistent. It was true to her feelings, the feelings a reader like me would expect from a woman in her situation.
CHARACTERS
HERA
She acted appropriately in every scene. Well-balanced, not overreacting. Doon pa lang, nakita ko na ang character niya at ang consistency niya. She's good. She had depth. She had story.
XANDER
He's simple, but good enough to be a hero. He had his motivations and appeal. And mystery. It was a thrill knowing his character.
Though I knew in the first place the problems they will face, it was fascinating to read about their journey. Their love was well-developed. I felt the connection and the "kilig". I liked this couple.
OTHER DETAILS
First chapter and it was already exciting. Second chapter and the story was unfolding well. There was a nice flow of events and struggle after struggle, the characters also revealed themselves. Until the convincing breaking-point. A good example of internal conflict.

I liked all their scenes. Walang patapon. I liked their dialogues, consistent and substantial. I liked how the author used the child to lead the story to the peak.
And the best part was that THERE'S NO NEED FOR HERO POV.
CONCLUSION
It was well-written. Simple, yet full. Maybe it fell short in terms of stimulating parts, but I enjoyed reading it. I recommend it.
