"Calm down, just calm down." He thought to himself as he tried to even out his labored breathing, it it seems to just have made it worse. His breathing became shorter and harder causing him to clutch his chest as the bitter December air seemed to attack his throat. "Jairo." A soft voice rang out, though his head was still pounding. It caught his attention, "Jairo, you have to calm down, take deep breathes. I promise you're okay." He didn't feel okay though, it wasn't working. "I'm trying." He gasped clenching his eyes shut, he balled up his fist hitting his chest before falling to the ground. Suddenly he stopped, everything stopped.

Sahara Martinez is a somewhat unlucky wedding planner. A hopeless romantic, who in fact hasn't had any romance. Actually, the last person who she could remember showing an inkle of interest in her was the old cleaner in the Starbucks bathroom. ...And even that was three years ago. You see why I call her unlucky? However, things start to seem a little positive once she meets Isiah, the brother of her newest client who has a certain charm that catches her attention. But... will things actually get better for her in terms of her love life or will it all crumble down like the horrible cake from the Devalencio's wedding?

Being paired together for a chemistry lesson shouldn't be this much trouble. But Shane Corelli has only one purpose in mind - to prove to Beverly Stanton that sparks don't just fly in the laboratory, but between people too.

Destiny Colt. One would think with such a strong name, she would have been different. But... nope. Her schedule consisted of cramming all her books with less than three hours for the test. Or copying her friend's homework with the speed of an electrocuted cheetah. Why? Because like you and me, she was too busy with the late night Netflix marathon and watching enough YouTube videos to end up on its wrong side. If there was one award she was entitled to, it was--Procrastination Queen. Tanner Blackburn. The other side of the world for Destiny. Glued to his MacBook, he might just give the late Steve Jobs a run for his money. Procrastination was not a word in his dictionary. Girls dropped to his feet, not for his mind but for his looks. Because he was no less endowed in that department too. They had nothing in common, both a beautiful mystery to each other. But haven't you heard the saying? Opposites attract.
