Serene Viviene Quintana has always believed that love is nothing but a distraction. She's spent her whole life dreaming of one thing-to escape her small hometown, become a star, and finally give her and her mom the life they've always deserved. No boys. No feelings. No detours. Just pure ambition and hard work. But everything changes when she crosses paths with Keiser Flever Severino, a once-famous actor who disappeared from the spotlight after punching his co-actor on set.

Will Serene risk the dream she's built her whole life for a love that came too soon? And will Keiser be her downfall, or the only one who truly sees her? Because sometimes, the biggest dreams are tested by the quietest echoes of the heart.

And then there's Matthew Dwayne Guerrero, the student council Governor, campus crush, and the boy she's been secretly in love with for years. They've always been just a glance apart, never close enough to touch. Until Clover, desperate to be near him, joins school events just to steal moments beside him. But as their worlds begin to collide, secrets from the past start to rise-ones that threaten to ruin everything Clover's tried to protect, including her heart. Will she risk it all to follow what she feels? Or will she let love fade like a scent that once lingered in the air, now gone with the wind?
