Mercado will play the role of hopelessly romantic Cynthia who believes in destiny. She will feel her prayers being answered as Felix, played by Herras, enters her life. Just when Cynthia believes that destiny propels their relationship, she will then learn of a marriage being arranged for her with Jason, Ignacio’s character.

Mercado and Herras were graduates of the first batch of GMA’s hit talent search “Starstruck.” Their on-screen team-up then led to a real-life relationship and they broke up after a year of being together.

Now, they are both happy with their separate lives. Mercado is currently dating fellow Kapuso actor Dennis Trillo, while Herras is happy with actress Wynwyn Marquez, who is set to compete in this year’s Miss World Philippines competition. /ra
