Love turns up when you least expect it

Love isn't easy. Especially when everyone seems to have found it but you. For florist Mara Barretto, her love life - or lack thereof - has baffled her close-knit family for years. Now that her baby sister is getting married, however, the pressure to settle down is at an all-time high. Then she meets Jay Montinola, a fellow wedding guest who's equally single.

And rumour has it that every girl who kisses Jay finds The One immediately after. So Mara does what any girl would do: try it for herself.

It's only a kiss - but the moment Jay's lips are on hers, Mara's plan takes an unexpected turn. Will she finally find the relationship she longs for, or is true love a lot closer than she thinks?
