Trisha Clare "Ish" Cortez has always been the odd one out-a scowling political science nerd in a family of glamorous prodigies. While her cousins dazzle on magazine covers, Isha drowns her insecurities in cynicism, convinced love is just a scam peddled by Valentine's Day chocolates... until a rainstorm, a shared umbrella, and a rose candy from campus sweetheart Theriza Charlotte "Theri" Velasques leaves her hopelessly smitten. But Theri's sharp-tongued best friend, Ashley Carmen Salcedo -a nursing student with a genius IQ and a glare that could freeze lava-seems determined to sabotage Isha's every attempt to get closer.
When Isha's quirky cousins Lila Hale Cortez stage a "confidence makeover," she transforms from campus wallflower to a girl who almost believes she deserves Theri's attention... until a chaotic Valentine's Day department event spins into a fake wedding roleplay gone wrong. Now, trapped in a $30K wedding gown with the entire student body watching, Isha faces a choice: marry Theri, the golden girl of her dreams, or confront Ash, the rival who's been hiding explosive secrets-and a love letter crumpled in her lab coat pocket.
As buried insecurities and family scandals unravel, Isha must decide if love is worth rewriting her self-worth-or if some hearts bloom best in the storm.🌹
