Love Between the Lines

Eat, Pray, Love meets No Reservations in this romcom about a younger man and an older woman on a mission to find themselves again, set in several of the major landmarks of the Philippines.

Katharina Bautista—or Katha, which is also the Filipino word for fiction or art—is 37 years old. She has no money, no job prospects, and she's a burden to her brother. And she's frightened. But this was a problem of her own making. She did, after all, break up with her ER surgeon fiancé who was willing to support her.

Meanwhile, Nick Malvar, lead vocalist of the up-and-coming indie band Word Warlords, has been in love with his best friend's older sister since high school and had believed all this time that she's way out of his league. Until recently, when he found out about her broken engagement.

Katha has every reason not to give Nick a chance. He's her younger brother's best friend, for one—she was practically his older sister! He's younger than her by seven years. He's the quintessential bad boy with the tattoos, the budding drinking problem, and the non-traditional job. Not to mention that he's got a long list of ex-lovers. It's a recipe for disaster!

What Katha needs is a fresh start—not an exciting whirlwind romance. But is she really too old to choose her own happiness?
