IRREPLACEABLE – Albert Martinez vows never to marry again, saying that Liezl Sumilang is irreplaceable.
True, but Albert should not be afraid to love again. Someday, somewhere a woman willing to spend eternity with him might just surface. Surely, Liezl won’t mind. On the contrary, Liezl will be happy that her husband has lifelong companion.
After all, it’s not good for a man to be alone.

EMPTY NEST – The Martinez is an empty nest… almost.
The two girls, Alyana and Alissa, are already married…and living abroad.
The only son, Alfonso, is getting married next year.
Albert will all be all alone in no time.
That is unless love comes knocking on his door.
