Aaron Toliver a tout ce qu'il a toujours détesté: un poste de PDG qu'il n'a jamais voulu, une vie solitaire dans un bureau en verre, et un futur où chaque jour ressemble au précédent. Il a tiré un trait sur ses rêves il y a longtemps, sacrifiant tout pour réparer les erreurs de sa famille. Désormais, il n'attend plus rien de la vie... jusqu'à ce qu'elle débarque. Athena n'a jamais été du genre à jouer selon les règles. Elle vit selon ses propres termes, loin des complications du cœur et des promesses qu'elle sait mensongères. Son plan est simple: six mois de stage, un diplôme, et une nouvelle vie à des kilomètres de New York. Mais son nouveau boss n'était pas dans l'équation. Entre eux, les lignes sont claires mais impossibles à respecter. Elle le teste à chaque sourire provocateur, il contre-attaque avec une maîtrise qu'elle refuse de reconnaître. Les limites s'effacent et la tension s'intensifie, jusqu'à ce que le jeu dépasse les règles. Mais ce duel passionné a une règle simple: tout donner sans perdre... son cœur.

Allison Monroe, a passionate college student of a Pre-Law course in University of the Philippines Diliman, come to believe that destiny no longer exists in our world. On the other hand, a happy-go-lucky guy which happened to be her classmate in college was amused by her beauty and brains. They started in not-a-very-good condition, because Allison hated Ryan the first time she have met him. It was love at first fight. As time passes by, the two has been playing with destiny, and started to fall for each other. But, it was not a good fairytale story to tell. Things has been complicated with the two of them, and the truth has started to unravel. There was familiarity in their warmth like they had met when they were younger. It's like they had loved each other at a different moment. At a different world. "Nothing changed. You were still the jerk I once knew, Jace," Allison uttered with full of sarcasticity. She couldn't believe it. She couldn't help but to laugh at herself for letting him fool her again. "I have no intention of fooling nor hurting you, I swear. Hear me out this time, Allison, please?" Ryan pleaded. "There's no point of hearing your stupid explanations, Ryan. You know I only seek for truth, and now that I know the truth, I can't let myself be fooled by you again." She turned her back at him. She never imagined that they could be played by Cupid twice. Love isn't all about happy endings. Sometimes, it could be tragic. But it may be tragically beautiful. And while Allison is slowly walking away from the place where Ryan is standing, she have thought of something she could do to save herself this time. She would do the first move to avoid pain. She would do the only thing she could do to not be hurt by the same guy again. She'd leave for good. On Allison's seat, she was watching the plane to take its flight to her Aunt's neighborhood, but she have mumbled last two words, "Fuck love."
