Myra Clarice Alinas is a hopeless romantic who's always waiting for the next guy to sweep her off her feet but always stumbles when finally faced with love, quite literally...
At 18, she was in the high school gymnasium when Alexei Ambré walked in and she tripped on her own two feet, falling off the treadmill.
At 19, she was staring at a flower shop across the street when she collided with a pole and fell back on Eli Medina, who was on his way to his part time job.
At 20, she got so drunk at her friend's party that she slipped on the stairs and landed at the bottom of Elijon Villarosa's basement.
Finally, at 21, she decided it would be her year clean of any more clumsy incidents with love. Except, Mikhail Ambrosio didn't quite sweep her off her feet. In fact, she got tired of waiting and decided she would be the one to do grand, romantic, gestures. Until she realized he wasn't the soulmate she was looking for.
Now at 24, Clarice is still single and catching flights, while friend after friend pop up with their engagement rings. She starts to wonder if there was anything she was doing wrong for her love life to turn out like this. Can fate truly have no one left for her? Or did she simply pass him by and didn't notice he was 'the one' after all?

[REKINDLING LOVE TROPE] Hopeless romantic and poet Nora Murphy has just gotten out of a terrible relationship. All she wants to do is fix her writer's block and move on with her life. To her luck, the first step to moving on starts ten years in the past, when she has to go to her ten year high school reunion. Luca Brince is content with his teaching job as psychology professor, and meaningless one night stands. After seeing his parents marriage fall apart, he doesn't think there's any point to it. Yet he can't seem to shake his friends and family off his back to settle down. She said she'd never go back to the man who broke her heart ten years ago, but when they get locked in the janitors closet together at their 10 year high school reunion, they strike up a deal. Nora will be Luca's date to a wedding to get his friends off his back about settling down, and Luca will let her pick his brain about the psychology behind love for her new book. She wanted a fresh start, but is her fresh start with her ex high school sweetheart? Quote from the book: "He looked nothing short of beautiful, his features sharp and strong-willed, but when he broke out into a grin his features softened into feminine beauty. Two completely opposite sides of a sword, yet both struck me somewhere in the same place that hadn't forgotten about him all these years." ***still undergoing edits!!!*** ***trigger warning: domestic violence, strong language, sexual contents***

It's an excerpt from Victor Hugo's "Les Misérables". He says: "The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now to say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only." I slowly lifted my head towards Collin and I saw him locking his eyes on mine. It was that same glance I just read. It was so evident in him and I could feel it upon me. I became instantly vulnerable and when he pressed his lips to mine, time froze and an explosive ecstasy overwhelmed our whole beings. *** Jamie grew up in Green Hill, where she devoted herself entirely to painting, turning it into her career. Known for her creativity and the abstraction of her art, she gained a certain success that had made her traveling from city to city. At the peak of her career, temporarily staying in a place called Chaston for a few weeks, she met Collin - a charming young man whose appeal was difficult to overlook. Their first meeting felt like a spontaneous intense chemistry, none of them could fight back. Chaston was the beginning of a new adventure but will this shared and intimate energy last longer or forever, knowing she wouldn't stay there for long? "See you again" is a rich literary translated work filled with life turmoils and psychological transformations that will bring you shivers and emotions. Well, at least I hope so. • Original French title: Elle •Concluida

He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside.

To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.
