[NEW CLASSIC SERIES #1] Meet the lead vocalist of New Classic, Isaiah Kalen Mallari. A #Wattys2020 Winner story under Romance category.

Word Santillan, the playboy chef and owner of TADHANA Café, avoids serious relationships like the plague. Novela "Vel" Martinez, the boyish neighbor and ex-employee of TADHANA, harbors a deep hatred toward her ex-boss, "Santillan." Their love language? Pigtasin ang pasensiya ng isa't isa and to bring out the worst in them-in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do they part. But who would have thought that a simple shelter from a storm would lead to an intense evening of passion? Bringing life to their we-didn't-know-we-needed-that-spicy-collabo-ration, now, a growing Baby Book is on the way. Vel's goal? Taguan ng anak si Word. Pero paano niya gagawin 'yon kung katapat lang ng bahay nila ang bahay ng letseng ama ng anak niya, at na-send niya nang hindi sinasadya ang ultrasound photo kay Word? They're perfectly unmatched-but can they build a family together? Word is determined to prove himself worthy to his unwilling bride, and he will not stop until Vel agrees to his marriage proposal. Will Vel give in and allow their enemies-to-lovers plot to move forward?

It's hard to prove yourself when everyone thinks that everything's being given to you on a silver platter. And in Siobhan Margarette's case, she'll do everything to make everyone see that she's worth it. But what will she do if someone unexpected sees her worth? Will she stay and accept? Or will she continue pretending that she doesn't feel a thing... too?
