Raya Dante had everything—a loving fiancé, a best friend she trusted, and a seemingly perfect life—until the night she walked in on the ultimate betrayal. Thrown off a building and left for dead, she crashes onto the windshield of Italy’s most powerful and ruthless Mafia boss, Marcello Warner. Marcello has spent years searching for his lost fiancée and sister, and when he sees Raya’s face, he is convinced she is the woman he’s been desperately hunting for. With no memory of her past, Raya is thrust into a dangerous marriage with a man she doesn’t understand—one who holds the key to secrets buried deep within her shattered mind. As Marcello helps Raya take brutal revenge on those who wronged her, a new threat emerges—the same organization that tore them apart years ago. When a mysterious woman claiming to be Marcello’s real fiancée arrives, Raya’s entire existence is thrown into question. Is she truly the lost bride, or just a pawn in someone else’s deadly game? Betrayals mount, lies unravel, and with enemies lurking in the shadows, Raya must uncover the truth before she loses everything—including the man who swore he would never let her go. But when the final battle comes, will Marcello stand by her side, or will he believe the imposter who has stolen her place?

To mend his broken heart and forget his ex-fiancée, Jasson Luther decided to go back to the island of Isla Lutherio, where he was born and raised. Nonetheless, instead of resting and easing his thoughts, he grew more upset and concerned when his heart became engaged again— which is when he met Samara, his lady butler, and personal driver's daughter. How can he manage his unwanted feelings toward a young girl? For heaven's sake, Samara is eighteen years younger than he is. He may be accused of being a cradle snatcher, and he may even be mistaken for a pedophile. And to avoid his unexplainable feelings for the girl, he diverts his attention to others—ladies his age. However, the more he avoids his feelings, the more intense they become. He couldn't stand seeing her dissatisfied and sullen expression towards him. He couldn't help being envious of every male associated with the girl. How long can he hold back his feelings for Samara? Will he be able to let her be with another guy despite their feelings for each other? Or will he be able to fight for his love against Samara’s entire clan?

NAGING mahirap ang buhay para kay Sunshine simula nang yumao ang ama at magkasakit naman ang ina. Mabuti na lamang at nagawa niyang pag-aralin ang sarili hanggang sa matapos niya ang kolehiyo. Naka-graduate man, hindi na siya nag-inarte sa kung ano ang trabahong pwede niyang pasukan. As long as her job can provide her mother's maintenance, go lang. Besides, nag-e-enjoy naman siya kahit pa minsan ang gabi ginagawa niyang araw. Papasok siya bilang waitress mula tanghali hanggang gabi at fire dancer naman hanggang hatinggabi. Nakakapagod, pero kailangan– para sa kaniyang Mamang. Maayos naman sana ang lahat, not until this summer. Not until she met Norman Luther. Ang arogante sa lahat ng aroganteng nakasalamuha niyang bakasyunista ng Palacio Grande Resort, na pinsan ng kaniyang Boss Lowelle at isa sa may pinakamalaking share sa resort na iyon. Hindi maintindihan ni Sunshine kung ano ang kasalanang nagawa niya sa lalaki at trip na trip siya ng lalaki. Na sa sobrang pan-ti-trip nito, ipinatanggal pa talaga siya sa trabahong matagal niyang iningatan dahil lang hindi niya tinanggap ang alok nito. Alok na nagpababa sa kaniyang dignidad at pagkatao. Mahuhulog kaya si Sunshine sa bitag ng binatang gumulo sa nananahimik niyang buhay, gayong ginagamit na ni Norman ang 'impluwensiya' makuha lang ang dalaga?
