Ava, a spirited college student, and Adrian, a successful businessman, fall deeply in love despite clashing from the very beginning. Their romance is passionate, volatile, and constantly tested by pride and circumstance.

But what begins as undeniable chemistry soon turns into a battlefield of egos and wounds too deep to heal. By the end, love collapses into bitterness, and the two-once inseparable-stand divorced, left only with memories of what they used to be.

Once Upon Us is a story of love's fire-how brightly it burns, and how painfully it fades.
