The Alaric brothers have one unbreakable rule:
"NEVER FALL FOR YOUR CHILDHOOD BEST FRIEND"
It's a lesson seared into their hearts by the painful past of their eldest brother, Alain, whose own confession ended in disaster. But as much as they try to guard themselves, life has other plans. And as fate would have it, the heart doesn't play by the rules.
A tangled web of secrets and heartbreak begins to unravel when Ash, the second eldest who thought he'd closed the door on his past, crosses paths with a girl who looks hauntingly familiar - a reminder of the one friendship he tried to bury deep with it's rooted emotions.
Goh, the carefree twin, insists his bond with Chloe is strictly platonic - until teasing turns to tension and misunderstandings make him question everything.
Young Roy vows to shield his best friend, Liko, from a world of pain only to find himself falling for her in the process but jealousy and unspoken feelings start to pull them apart.
And then there's Alain, the brother who made the rule and is busy keeping his brothers in check, he's still carrying the weight of his own heartbreak - until the person who broke it comes back, forcing him to confront everything he thought he'd left behind.
Indeed, breaking the rules has never been so complicated. With old memories, unexpected twists, and feelings they can't ignore, the Alaric brothers are about to find out just how tricky love and friendship can be. Can they break the so-called "Best Friend Trap," or are they doomed to prove that falling for a friend is the ultimate risk?
