My Driver Sweet Lover is the first ever teleserye that is aired in the Philippines by TV5 and starred by JC de Vera, Danita Paner and Arci Muñoz and was directed by Eric Quizon and Soxie Topacio.

Plot

Rocky (JC de Vera) is a jeepney driver whose charm and street smart background often leave all the girls hooked, except for his usual enemy, Gabrielle (Danita Paner), a cranky and workaholic hotel heiress. The history of fighting cat and dog began in an orphanage—a young Rocky was abandoned by his father; while Gabrielle was an obese, lost squire who was brought there after an attempted kidnap to steal her inheritance. But when Gabrielle was accidentally reunited with her family, the two had lost contact until they crossed paths at present. Separated by fate, their gap grows wider through an intense dislike and a yawning divide brought by class and money. The cunning Monique (Arci Muñoz) makes Gabrielle's life even more difficult as she pulls everything to steal Rocky from her.
