Wish You Were Not Here

Not yet released

Synopsis

Natalia Aguilar spent thousands on a honeymoon for a wedding that never happened, and chose the non-refundable package because it was the better deal. A year after the engagement was called off, she has to decide whether to take the financial hit or take the trip anyway.

Gabriel Saint James hears that his ex-fiancée is going on their honeymoon with another man — so he crashes it. Candlelit dinners, snorkelling trips, sunset hikes: wherever Natalia goes, Gabriel is there, reminding her that the man she fell in love with hasn't gone anywhere, however much she wishes he had.

Wish You Were Not Here is a second-chance romance that strands two exes in the vacation they planned together and makes them work out what actually went wrong.
