The Matchmaker's Playbook

Bella is the definition of calm, always composed, and never one to let anything-or anyone-get under her skin. Manuel, on the other hand, lives to provoke her. He teases, challenges, and does everything he can to get a reaction, but Bella refuses to give him the satisfaction. No matter what he throws her way, she meets him with nothing more than a raised eyebrow and an infuriatingly patient smile.

To their friends, it's obvious-Manuel isn't just picking fights for fun. He wants Bella's attention, even if he won't admit it. And if he won't make a move, Susi and Samu will. The couple takes it upon themselves to play matchmaker, carefully orchestrating moments that will force Bella and Manuel closer-whether they realize it or not.

Meanwhile, Sophie is learning to navigate life without Jacob, determined to move forward on her terms. And Martin and Alejandro? They're locked in a slow-burning dance of tension, unspoken glances, and fleeting touches, pretending they don't notice the way their worlds shift when they're near each other.

Between playful scheming, undeniable chemistry, and friends who refuse to let love slip by unnoticed, the game is set in motion. Manuel might be good at getting reactions, but will he be ready when Bella finally gives him one?
