The Future Chosen — Mina V. Esguerra

The nation of Isla has a law: No two politicians from the same family. Two elected officials who marry make their families one; only one can continue to serve. In the future, Maria Lourdes and Andres Miguel could very well be their country's best and most influential leaders. She could be president one day, like her grandmother. He could be a senator one day, like his uncle. Marrying another politician is against the law, but why should it matter? Today they're just young people who want to be together. They'll deal with the rest of it tomorrow.
