I was the stand-in who looked most like my husband's first love. He put me through countless plastic surgeries, both major and minor ones, until I became her exact likeness. But then, she came back from the dead. All it took was her saying, "I don't like anyone looking like me," and he sent me right back to the operating table once more. I begged him, telling him that my body couldn't handle it anymore. Alas, he only looked at me with irritation. "Seeing that cheap imitation of her face just disgusts me," he sneered. "No matter how close you come, you'll never be her." In the end, I died on that operating table. Yet, he went mad, trying desperately to recall what I once looked like.

Before my engagement, a fire broke out in my dressing room. The explosion sent shards of glass deep into my body. My best friend, Monica Addams, shielded me as we escaped the flames.  At the hospital, she stayed by my side as I clung to life.  She called my fiancé, James Miller. However, his response was dismissive. “Veronica isn’t feeling well, and I’m accompanying her to get an IV drip. If it’s no big deal, just drop it.” Furious, Monica unleashed a string of curses and called her own boyfriend, Lucas Smith, asking him to help find a specialist.  He brushed her off, too. “Stop overreacting. Veronica’s sick, so I’m getting her some medicine.” When I narrowly escaped death and met Monica’s gaze, I said in a low voice, “I want to call off the engagement.” Without hesitation, she responded, “If you end yours, I’ll end mine.” That was when both men panicked. 

Hindi naging maganda ang unang pagkikita nila Harry at Reyna dahil mayabang ito at antipatiko. Kapag nakakita naman ng mga magagandang chicks, mabilis pa sa alas-kwatro ang mga mata nito para titigan. Kaya asar talaga siya sa pagmumukha nitong chickboy at manloloko. Pero tinamaan si Reyna sa kasabihan na "The more you hate, the more you love". Ang tunay niyang nararamdaman para kay Harry, kaya umiiwas siya dito. Pero sa katagalan, hinahanap-hanap na nito ang mga pang-aasar ni Harry sa kanya. Ngunit balakid sa kanilang namumuong pagtitinginan si Julliene Cheng, ang spoiled brat na younger sister ni Harry. Hindi niya gusto si Reyna para sa kanyang kapatid, dahil may napipisil na itong iba para sa kanyang kuya Harry, si Ruiz De Vera, ang bagong Restaurant Manager ng resort. Nahuhumaling sandali si Harry kay Ruiz, pero napatunayan niyang si Reyna nga ang kanyang gusto dahil labis s'yang nagseselos ng makita nitong may kasamang ibang lalaki si Reyna. Kaya ipinaglalaban nito ang kanyang pagmamahal para sa kanya. Kung kailan masaya na silang dalawa sa kanilang pag-iibigan, tsaka naman nagparamdam muli ang lalaking minahal noon ni Reyna ng labis. Pero sinaktan lamang siya at iniwan lang basta-basta na parang basura dahil walang silbi sa kanya. Pero hanggang saan sila dadalhin ng kanilang masayang pagsasama, dahil hindi lang si Julliene Cheng ang tutol sa kanilang relasyon. Kundi pati ang dati niyang kasintahan na si Jonel Cornelio. Isang bangungot ang muling pagbabalik nito sa buhay ni Reyna. Ang dahilan kung bakit siya naging matigas ang kanyang puso at ang nagtulak sa kanya para lumayo para lang makalimutan siya. Mananaig pa kaya ang second chances para sa dati nitong kasintahan? O ang bagong pag-ibig nito para kay Harry Cheng, that against all odds? Dahil hindi siya tanggap ng family nito. Ano ang pipiliin ng kanyang puso?
