Grumpy and workaholic Isaiah Hendrix lives a hectic life. Being the CEO of one of the leading chocolate companies in the world is exhausting but every year he escapes to a different country for two months. Two months to be himself without any meetings, schedules or galas. And this year he wants to go somewhere different, not a very common tourist destination. A hidden gem. 

And what better destination than the city of Dumaguete, a lucious, colourful city with beautiful beaches also nicknamed as 'The City of The Gentle'? 

But what Isaiah doesn't expect is to meet a clumsy Chinese girl who is the literal definition of walking, talking sunshine.

                                         _____________________

"You alright?" He asked

"No. I think my shoulder is broken," I whimpered, holding my shoulder dramatically as if I were shot. 

He scowled at me. 

"What? You asked me a dumb question, not my fault." I said, raising my hands. 

"God, you're annoying." He muttered. 

"And you're grumpy. I think we're the perfect match."
