Indy Alegria dela Rua, the vice president's daughter, struggles under her perfectionist mother's pressure. Forced into law school despite her own desires, she rebels and suffers from depression and anxiety. After intentionally failing law school and enduring severe punishment from her mother, Indy overdoses on medication but survives. To escape her mother's control, she pretends to have selective mutism and mental instability. Her mother, embarrassed, sends her to Hacienda Alegria. There, while pretending to be lost, Indy meets Thad Ciervo, a charming haciendero.

... that's what it takes-just one fateful fall-for Ashley and Zeal's lives to eventually change. From strangers to academic rivals to friends, and eventually to lovers. But wait-everything that falls eventually gets broken.

Courtney Fortaverde has always felt like she was living in the shadow of her parents-her dad being one of the top justices in the country and her mom a national artist. Even though her family never pressured her, she couldn't escape the expectations of everyone around her. So when she failed to get into the most prestigious law school in the country, it felt like her world was falling apart. But then she took a chance and applied to the University of Cambridge and got accepted into the law program of Gonville & Caius College. Now, Courtney finally has the chance to start fresh, far away from those who see her as just her parents' daughter and prove to them that she is not just Courtney Fortaverde. But when she thought no one would know her-she met Alfynn Valle-just a man she had been stealing glances ever since high school but never once looked back. >> Alfynn Valle had always dreamed of becoming a professional tennis player, but that dream was shattered when an injury during a ranking match at Wimbledon cost him his chance. Devastated, he thought his life was over. But his father encouraged him to pursue a different path, so Alfynn decided to study law and got accepted into the University of Cambridge's Gonville & Caius College. For the past three years, Alfynn has been living quietly in England, hiding from the judgment he feared back home in the Philippines. His life takes an unexpected turn when his new apartment neighbor turns out to be Courtney-the girl who once had a huge crush on him and shared his first kiss. But now, Courtney doesn't even spare him a glance. Little does Courtney know, Alfynn used to steal glances at her, too... and now. Will they find themselves glancing at each other again?

A SECOND CHANCE MAY BE TOO HOT TO HANDLE They say there are no second chances, and for Lily Onassis, ever since she walked away from Formula World driver Max Becker, she's considered this true. Instead of a glitzy, glamorous life on the auto racing circuit, she's worked at a tech company, trying to live a quiet life and forget about her feelings for the gorgeous Max. Until she's fired from her job, and her father - a popular racing team owner - has a heart attack. Before her father goes into surgery, he has one request for Lily: temporarily take over his racing team. It shouldn't be a problem since she has management experience, except that Max is now a Team Onassis driver. And Lily is his new boss. The two must fight their burning attraction to each other at every turn while the paparazzi lurk behind every corner - and confront the fact that their love might be bigger than their stupid decisions of the past.
