HOPELESS ROMANTIC 18-year-old Jaslene Garcia has finally met the love of her life in a swoonworthy bookstore meet-cute of all places. Could this love story be anymore perfect?
There’s only one problem. Marlon Salvador the devil incarnated, the bane of her existence. And the son of her Mum’s best friend.
Jaslene and Marlon have been betrothed since birth. Kind of.
Their Mums, who have been best friends since forever, are both convinced their children are made for each other, setting them up on playdates, study dates and spontaneous hangouts throughout their entire lives. What they don’t understand is Jaslene wants nothing to do with Marlon, and Marlon wants nothing to do with Jaslene.
Yet, Jaslene soon realises that she cannot have her happy-ever-after until both their families stop trying to get her and Marlon together. Reaching peak desperation, she proposes a ruse with Marlon. To fake-date and stage a grand, dramatic break-up in front of their families, burying the idea of their pairing once and for all. That way, they can have their happy ending with the one they want.
And so, as the two are forced to put on a loving facade in front of their gushing families, they find themselves blurring the lines between fiction and reality, leading the two to question whether their idea of happy ever after was with the right people after all.
