The Love We Deserve

Four stories about the lives and loves of mothers (and one father), taking you into the fears, pains, joys, and triumphs of parenthood. As the characters navigate spouses, children, work, and people from their past, they learn that there is and will always be room for love.

Thirty-something Sam has everything she needs—a loving husband, an adorable son and a jet-setting best friend whom she can always count on. But does she have everything she wants? To jumpstart a much-needed change, she decides to hit the gym, where she discovers, not only a love for fitness, but also a former college crush. Irresistibly drawn to an old infatuation, Sam learns that there’s more to her than being a doting mother and a loyal wife.

When single mother Aria Tomas begrudgingly agrees to attend her high school homecoming, she doesn’t know former teenage heartthrob Nicky Mendoza will be performing. It’s common knowledge that every forty-something-year-old woman in Manila had a crush on Nicky when they were teenagers (maybe even today). What’s not common knowledge is Aria was in love with him back then and probably still is.

Everyone thinks “mom-preneur” Alyssa Cruz has it all. But what’s it like in her shoes for a day? From grueling morning workouts to daily household management (including breakfast cereal negotiations with a primary schooler); launching a business and dealing with the past, Alyssa grapples with complex emotions, including the age-old answer to the question “If only…”

Single dad Eric Singson is excited to catch up with high school classmate Nina when he finds out that she’s his son’s preschool teacher. His friend has gone a long way from the girl he used to share quail eggs and ice scramble with, and he’s starting to appreciate her in a whole new way.
Nina Sioson had the biggest crush on Eric in high school, but he only ever treated her like a friend. But the vibes he’s sending her way lately are making her think . . . maybe the time is right for something more?
