Manila Takes Manhattan

How do you follow your heart when it’s torn?

Filipino musician and producer Mon Mendoza has been in New York for less than a day. Just long enough to feel like he doesn’t belong despite landing a life-changing opportunity. All he can do is set a date night for himself and some comfort food from home. Which, as it turns out, is the only invitation his gorgeous Pinoy neighbour needs…

Actress Olivia Angeles can wear a character like a well-fitted dress. It’s her real self she’s having a hard time fitting into. But right now, all she wants is comfort in the form of tasty noodles and her outrageously hot new neighbour.

But then they realise that for the next month Mon and Olivia are working on the same film. And they’re discovering they have a lot more in common than Pinoyness and sizzling chemistry. But how do you find yourself and your person when you’re caught between two different worlds?
