Alexa Go is a newly licensed civil engineer - logical, disciplined, and tired of everyone planning her love life for her.
So she does what any practical woman would never admit to doing: she hires a fake boyfriend.
Dylan Tuazon is a struggling actor chasing auditions, vlogs, and a dream that doesn't come with guarantees. Agreeing to play the part should've been simple, just another role.
But when families get involved, expectations tighten, and one lie begins to spiral, pretending becomes harder than either of them expected. Especially when real feelings refuse to follow the script.
In a world where stability is praised and passion is questioned, how long can love survive between logic and art?

MY FAKE BOYFRIEND
Isang simpleng kasunduan-walang totohanan, walang masasaktan. Ngunit habang tumatagal ang pagpapanggap, nagiging mas mahirap paghiwalayin ang scripted na lambing sa tunay na damdamin. Hanggang sa mabunyag ang kasinungalingan at may isang hindi na pala marunong umatras. Hindi man sila nagkatuluyan, natutunan nilang harapin ang katotohanan nang may tapang-dahil minsan, ang pusong nasaktan ang siyang nagtuturo kung paano maging mas matatag.Complete
The Boyfriend Deal
It's been said that boyfriends are like jobs: it's only when you already have one that the offers would start to come in. So when an old crush re-enters the life of 32-year-old bank executive Dell Santos, she is determined to "up her market value" by playing on this principle. She enlists the help of her neighbor, Sean, a part-time model who she has always found too laid back to be an ideal partner. But Sean seems to have ideas of his own for this deal.

The Aimless Archer
Rishi never meant to fall in love-not with him, anyway. All she wanted was a taste of freedom. Moritz wasn't aiming either. Bratty, stubborn, always ready to argue-she was a walking headache he was asked to look after. Their banter became friendship. Their friendship became something they couldn't name. Until everything fell apart. She had secrets. He felt betrayed. And when it ended, they became polite, distant strangers who once almost had something real. But love, as they've learned, doesn't care for pride, timing, or unspoken truths. And sometimes, the arrow that missed the first time still knows exactly where to land.
