All her life, Mary Imogen Suarez was led to believe that she should end up with Parker Adrian Palma. Na dapat, kay Parker lang siya. Na si Imogen ay para lang kay Parker. But the problem was, Parker never looked her way, at least, not the way she wanted him to. For him, she's just the best friend-and a reminder of something he badly wanted to forget. For years, she lived with the knowledge that Parker would never like her back. Akala ni Imo, hindi na siya makakaahon sa naraaramdaman niya para kay Parker-until she met Saint Iverson Gomez de Lianño. Saint was a breath of fresh air. He's attentive, and he made Imo feel loved and appreciated-something she never felt during all the years she loved Parker. But when things started to fall in their right places, Parker decided to finally look her way. What would Imogen do? Would she brave the storm to be with Saint? Or would she tread the strings that connect her with Parker?

Ilang beses ba nating tinanong ang sarili natin kung mapapansin ba tayo ng mga taong mahal natin? Ilang beses ka ba magtatanong sa buong buhay mo? At ano sa tingin mo ang magiging sagot? "Mapapansin kaya ako? Ang pag-ibig ko? Ang katauhan ko? Mapapansin Kaya?" Paano kung hindi? Paano kung oo? Magkaiba ba ang gagawin mong desisyon o pareho lang? Mag-iiba ba ang pananaw mo o magpapatuloy ka lang sa kung anong alam mong constant? Umaatikabong fame laban sa umaatikabong pag-ibig.

Image Consultant Carmela Lopez meets Luke Robert Santiago, kind-hearted, intelligent and passionate about everything but appearances. He challenged her. She challenged him. Appearances are everything - Carmela Aesthetics are nothing - Luke Who would change? Who would agree? Who would compromise?

He already had an epic love affair that spanned years. He didn't end up with her though. He's trying to love again... with me... the complete opposite of her perfect woman. I was always the second girl, the second choice. I've worked hard to get things, or people, 'cause nothing comes easy. With guys, I was always a meantime girl. I've never been the main girl. It will be different. I want to claim my love. I want to be the only person he sees. I will make him see me and love me more than he had ever loved his greatest love. Scratch that, I will be his greatest love.

The search is over. We are all given our teen years and our twenties, even our thirties and for some hanggang forties o fifties o sixties pa, as a single individual, the opportunity to search for the one we love, to search for that one person who will be with us for the rest of our lives. I have found him. Yay to me! After a lot of lying, cheating and heartaches (see Book I - Lying, Cheating Hearts), nakita ko na sya and we are going to spend the rest of our lives together. Pero I'm not a princess and this life isn't a fairy tale and in real life there are no happy endings, life just goes on. Almost every story ends in weddings, and there comes after that an assumption that everything will go well kasi ikakasal na or kinasal na, mag-asawa na. That's where everyone's wrong. Mas mahirap, mas masakit, mas matitindi ang mga problema but these are needed to show your spouse, your partner in life how loving and caring and how much heart you can give in trying times. This is sort of a pre-wedding manual and a glimpse of what happens after the big day!

Nakakabagot ang buhay. Lalo na pag papasok ka nang school, kakain, humiga sa pera, maligo sa puri, mamili ng babae, at matulog. Paulit-ulit lahat araw-araw. Lahat nalaro mo na, poker hanggang pag-ibig naipanalo mo na. Kung sana may pwedeng paglaruan. Yung unique. Yung nakakatuwa. Nang dumating siya sa buhay ko, natuwa ako kasi pinaglaruan ko siya. Humingi siya ng pabor. Binigay ko. Nagpaturo siya. Tinuruan ko. Humingi siya ng masasandalan. Binigay ko. Kasi nakakatuwa siya! Pero habang tumatagal, bakit siya na yung natutuwa at ako na pinaglalaruan? Hate. Lies. Temptations. Betrayal. Pain. Love. All in one. Training To Love.
