Fall in love and laugh-out-loud with GMA Network's newest romantic-comedy series 'Because of You'

"Never say die."

We seriously think that this is Andrea's motto in life. Imagine, even after several failed attempts at love, this independent and compassionate woman with a foolish heart continues to pursue love. When she met Oliver, a success-driven photographer who often overlooks his shortcomings, Andrea believes love has finally found her. But her world turns upside down when Oliver dumps her during their wedding day. Like any other broken-hearted woman in the world, she gets devastated.

However, this hopeless romantic woman still chooses to stand up and tries to find another man to love. She does her best to move on as she holds onto Jaime, a hardworking businessman who is surviving a failed marriage.

Eventually, Andrea finds herself also responsible for the welfare of Jaime's children. In a constant exchange of kindness while she efforts to keep his life on an uphill cruise, they fall for each other.

Will Andrea find love that she hopes for the longest time? Will Jaime finally have the ideal family he aspires for himself? And what happens when people from their past reappear to challenge their budding relationship? Is love really worth fighting for?
