(TAGLISH) What happens when your life is a rom-com... but you don't even believe in true love?
A broken engagement has changed Freddie Rivas. The once big-hearted, lovable stunt coordinator slash is now a suit-wearing, guarded fundraiser. Unlike his younger sister who's getting married, he has no time or interest in getting swept up in another romance that will just end up in another scandalous, messy break-up.
Audrey Parfan is the queen of rom-com flicks. She has it all: award-winning performances, seven-figure deals, box office hits, loving fans, a dog named Hugo, and her best friend, Freddie. Fangirls want her life. Fanboys want her love. But behind her success are secrets that she's adamant to keep hidden just to protect the people she loves.
When both are coerced into making a film together for charity, the two make a deal: Freddie won't ask about Audrey's reason why she left, and Audrey won't ask about Freddie's broken engagement. Rules, though, have a funny way of being broken. To move forward, Freddie and Audrey will have to reckon with their pasts - the friendships they've damaged, the secrets they've kept.

Cyra Lim has been secretly in love with Eli Dasilva for as long as they've been best friends. One problem: Eli is a playboy, and Cyra has resigned herself to just being his best friend...even if it breaks her heart.
***
Always the friend, never the girl. For Cyra, being in love with her longtime best friend is heartache wrapped in a pretty package. Having witnessed all of Eli's conquests, Cyra is too familiar with his flirt-play-leave strategy--and she's not going to be a victim no matter how much she wants Eli to look at her as more than just a best friend. But Cyra's struggle with her unrequited love suddenly ends when he confesses his feelings. She should be elated, over the moon, lounging on cloud nine...but as she comes face-to-face with her fears from the past and Eli's playboy reputation catches up with him, can she fully trust her best friend to commit to her...or not? After all, he is Torrero University's typical heartbreaker.
