Jasper Alvarado is a small-town varsity boy with big dreams. When he lands a full basketball scholarship at SRU in Manila, he leaves behind the slow, quiet life of Santa Filomena in hopes of making it to the pros-and making his parents proud. But adjusting to the city isn't easy. The noise, the pressure, and the unfamiliar faces make him feel more lost than ever.
Glenn Estefano Fontanilla doesn't believe in fitting in. Half-German and fresh off his parents' divorce, he's forced to leave everything behind in Berlin and finish college in the Philippines. He's blunt, distant, and doesn't think much of people-especially not sentimental ones like Jasper.
They're nothing alike.
But maybe that's exactly why something starts to grow.
Almost by accident.
Almost too late.
Almost gentle.
