When fate and tacos bring Ram n and Julieta together on the Day of the Dead, the star-crossed pair must make a choice- accept the bitter food rivalry that drives them apart or surrender to a love that consumes them-perfect for fans of Jane the Virgin! Ram n Montez always achieves his goals. Whether that means collecting Ivy League degrees or growing his father's fast-food empire, nothing sets Ram n off course. So when the sexy senorita who kissed him on the Day of the Dead runs off into the night with his heart, he determines to do whatever it takes to find her again. Celebrity chef Julieta Campos has sacrificed everything to save her sea-to-table taqueria from closing. To her horror, she discovers that her new landlord is none other than the magnetic mariachi she hooked up with on Dia de los Muertos. Even worse, it was his father who stole her mother's taco recipe decades ago. Julieta has no choice but to work with Ram n, the man who destroyed her life's work-and the one man who tempts and inspires her. As San Diego's outraged community protests against the Taco King take-over and the divide between their families grows, Ram n and Julieta struggle to balance the rising tensions. But Ram n knows that true love is priceless and despite all of his successes, this is the one battle he refuses to lose.

Eliza and Graham's marriage is quietly failing. With their five-year anniversary approaching, neither of them are thrilled about the weeklong getaway to the Treeline Retreat they've been gifted. Nestled on the Northern California coastline, the inn prides itself on being a destination for those in love and those looking to find it - but for Eliza and Graham it's the last place they want to be. After a well-meaning guest mistakes Eliza and Graham as being single and introduces them at the hotel bar, they don't correct him. Suddenly, they re pretending to be perfect strangers and it's unexpectedly... fun? Eliza and Graham find themselves flirting like it's their first date and sharing pillow talk secrets. Everyone at the retreat can see the electric chemistry between Eliza and Graham's alter egos. But as they realise this performance could be the thing that saves their marriage, their game becomes something more.
