What did he mean when he said, Hey it's you? Was the accent in the Hey, like he was surprised, pleasantly surprised, the way new lovers are pleased? Was the accent in the You, as if he never expected her to be there? What did he mean? These thoughts raced through her head and a familiar sense of panic gripped her. Shut up, Teri, shut up.
Twenty-six-year-old Teri Maraņa wants to do things right: become a better person, hone her writing skills, meet Mr. Right, and make love when it's truly making love. Fresh from a miserble relationship with an ex who kept pressuring her to sleep with him, she enrols in graduate school for a master's degree in creative writing, and decides to give love another chance by agreeing to a blind date-with a young college professor named Gito who turns out to be too yabang for words.
Never mind that she may have started her new life on the wrong foot care of the blind date from hell, and that her best friends keep debating on when, where and with whom she should lose her virginity-there's one thing that inspires her to get up in the morning and troop to school (even if she's sure to bump into Gito): mysterious and passionate love letters from a secret admirer that keep appearing at strange places. With her name on it.
Hot on the trail of the elusive letter writer, Teri can't help but wonder: Could Mr. X be Mr. Right as well?
