“Blurb: When Sarah is forced to accept the marriage proposal in place of Veronica, her half sister, she never imagined the man to be Edward Huxley. Edward Huxley-formidable owner of Huxley Airline and Shipping Company–the most eligible billionaire bachelor in the country, is surprised and infuriated when he discovers that it was the unknown, bland illegitimate Maxwell daughter that was in his bed, and not Veronica whom he had expected. Their meeting ends in an unplanned one night stand. Veronica finds out Edward's identity,and decides that she wants him. Together with her mother, they accused and humiliated Sarah. Edward despises Sarah and he kicks her out after humiliating her. Heartbroken and shattered, Sarah leaves the country. Four years later, she returns, a different, confident, shrewd and attractive career woman–alongside her adorable twins who share the same face with the country's billionaire heartthrob- Edward Huxley. Edward is astounded at the drastic change and can't help falling for the new Sarah. He sets out to win her heart and build a family with their children. Would he succeed?or would he already be too late given the presence of the enigmatic Benicio who is always beside Sarah with his eyes dripping with love and adoration?”
