Plot
This is the story of Xander (Enrique Gil), the rebellious, broken unico hijo of a hotel magnate, and Agnes (Liza Soberano), the humble and hardworking daughter of a strawberry farmer in Benguet. Both cross paths when Xander crashes into Agnes’ strawberry truck while base jumping. After the incident, his parents make him pay for the damages and his recklessness by having him work in the strawberry farm without any comfortable amenities under the guidance of Agnes alongside her strawberry farm community. The journey towards Xander’s immersion within a totally different world was not easy for both. However, Xander, with the help of Agnes and her community, transforms from a brash, broken boy into a very charming man loved by everyone. Soon, they fall in love with each other. But unknown to Agnes, Xander has unfinished business with his first love, Kate (Sofia Andres). Aside from this, Xander and Agnes` love is further challenged as they get entangled in the strawberry farm land dispute between their families. They both realize that it’s best for them to part ways. As fate would have it, after two years of separation, they meet again. With both given another lease in love, will Xander and Agnes go out of their way to fight for what once was their great love despite their different backgrounds?
