Maria has always believed that hard work could take her anywhere. As a working student, she spent years balancing classes, part-time jobs, and impossible deadlines, and the constant struggle of making ends meet, romance is the last thing on her mind. Then she met Gael. She fell in love with a man who never told her who he really was. By the time Maria learned the truth, she had already lost more than her heart. And when their paths crossed again, she realized that some secrets are powerful enough to change everything. And neither of them is prepared for what happens when love gets caught between ambition, pride, and the truth. Because sometimes the person who changes your life is the same person who can break your heart. “And our love story is like coffee brewed before it was ready, rushed by circumstance, tested by time, yet worth every sip in the end.” Love, Maria

Their story sparks from one reckless decision at a campus booth, where a blind pairing changes everything. She never meant to end up there, let alone leave it marked by a stranger’s kiss in front of a watching crowd. What was supposed to be one day refuses to stay one day. And a future she never chose grows from a promise that was never meant to be kept. When love starts like a fairytale, how do you know what’s real anymore? Some beginnings don’t end… they ruin everything.
