Kuntento na si Ariana Velarde sa kanyang comfort zone. Her idea of a fun night was curling up in front of the fireplace with a good book or horseback riding at their estate. Her aversion to people is only justified, after all, she's the school's resident outcast. Not that she cared. At the end of the day, mahal naman siya ng pamilya niya. She was fine with routine. In fact, gusto niya iyon. Nothing and no one could faze her anymore. That is, until the Halloween Party last year when she receives a strange gift from a strange boy dressed in a military uniform. First time na may makipagusap sa kanya out of interest. Sino ba naman ang mag aakala magkakagusto ito sa kanya na alam ng buong eskwelahan ang reputasyon niya? Pero still, just as every single romance prospect in her life, naglaho ito ng parang bula. She has never seen that boy ever again. Time passed and the pearl necklace was long tossed at the back of her drawer. That is, until one afternoon a year later, the strangest thing happened. She opened the locket, and in a flash, she was struck hard when memories of a past dancing under the moonlight with a boy flashes right before her eyes. Memories of kissing a boy whom she strangely felt like she knew her entire life.

IT'S THE YEAR 1962. Newly minted flight stewardess, Anastasia Locroft was more than thrilled to finally land the job of her dreams, to do the one thing she's always wanted to do - see the world. While not particularly gifted with the best upbringing, what she lacked in etiquette lessons, she made up for in her natural charms and ability to stand for her convictions. A suburban boy raised in the southern plantations of Aslyrtown, Dean Hollingsworth had been showered in equal parts privilege and expectations growing up. Everything had been easy for him, from work, friendships and relationships - until it all came crumbling down. The love of his life was nowhere to be found. And three months later, he was still grieving. A free spirit healing a tortured soul... they always said it never ended well. (Previously titled: Fly Me To The Moon)
