Anessa Panaligan is a strong woman and a loving daughter who would do everything for the sake of her family. Amidst all the trials that she is facing, Anessa will meet and fall in love with Eros Diomedes, a rich young man who will turn her life into a nightmare.
Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala dominated its 8:30–9:15pm timeslot. Although it moved to a later timeslot to give way for Muling Buksan ang Puso, it still dominates its new timeslot (9:15–10:00pm) and was one of the few primetime shows in the Philippines to increase their television ratings after being moved to a later timeslot.
The series ranked 11th in the Top 15 programs from January to December 2013 based on year round data from Kantar Media Philippines with an average rating of 25.9%. [7]

Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala was supposed to be extended due to high ratings and positive feedbacks. Unfortunately, the show's extension is later cancelled due to the combined requests of Koreanovela fans and the supporters of That Winter, the Wind Blows, followed by Santos' decision to finish her show immediately to give way for Got to Believe.
