True Love's First Kiss

Kara Dawson is afraid of the dark. Nightmares came every night, haunting her of a past she cannot let go and a dreadful thing she cannot comprehend. A peaceful sleep is nothing but an elusive dream especially when her over-reacting senses are screaming of something intangible lurking in the shadows of the night. Will she survive each midnight before her fears fully devour her or will she learn to love the dark? He is there. He sees her and her every breath. He knows her fears and he isn't suppose to meddle and stir someone else's fate. But he can't continue watching her drown deeper as the midnight kisses the moon. Now, he must save her, not until the day breaks...

Ang pag-ibig ay isang laro na puno ng hiwaga at roller coaster. Si Champagne Miranda, ang nag-iisang anak ng bilyonaryo at tagapagmana ng Miranda Empire, na nagmamay-ari ng sikat na restaurant chain at pastry outlet sa buong bansa. Si Champagne ay isang dalaga, napabayaan sa kusina ngunit pinalaki ng mag-asawang Mercy at Herbert, mga bilyonaryo at sikat na chef. 5 years niyang crush si Stephan, ang anak ng kanilang driver, at ang kanyang unang pag-ibig. Ngunit sa likod ng matatamis na ngiti at force marriage, isang masakit na lihim ang unti-unting sumira sa kanyang puso. Natikman ni Champagne ang pinakamatinding sakit – pagtataksil mula sa lalaking pinakaminahal niya. Sa kanilang mismong tahanan, nakita niyang pinaglalaruan siya ng asawang si Stephan at ang kabit nitong si Pia Vasquez. Ang tagpong iyon ang nagbukas ng sugat na hindi lamang tumagos sa kanyang puso kundi nagdulot ng trahedyang nawala sa kanya ang pinakamahalagang bagay sa kanyang buhay – ang kanyang anak. Sa gitna ng dilim, isang estranghero ang naging sagot sa kanyang panalangin. Si Vash Delos Santos, isang tall, dark, and handsome billionaire at isang cosmetic surgeon na may-ari ng Vlash Aesthetic, sikat na cosmetic surgery clinic sa Bangkok at sa Pilipinas. Isang makapangyarihan at magiting na cosmetic surgeon ang nagbigay sa kanya ng pagkakataong bumangon mula sa pagkakadapa. Sa tulong ni Vash, hindi lamang muling nabuo ang kanyang pagkatao – nabago rin ang kanyang anyo. Ngayon, si Champagne ay hindi na ang mahina at inosenteng babaeng minsang minanipula ng kasinungalingan. Siya ay naging isang matatag, makapangyarihan, at kaakit-akit na reyna, handang harapin ang kanyang mga kaaway. Ngunit sa kanyang puso, may nananatiling tanong: sa paghihiganti ba siya tunay na makakatagpo ng kapayapaan? O sa piling ni Vash, ang lalaking nagbigay ng liwanag sa kanyang madilim na kahapon, siya ay matututo ulit magmahal?
