Saimori Miyo was the unfortunate child of a loveless, arranged marriage. After her mother died, her father brought in his lover and her own daughter, Kaya. From then on, Miyo's life was reduced to that of a mere servant. Even worse, while Kaya inherited the family's psychic abilities, Miyo had none—she was truly the daughter with no merit. After years of being treated like dirt, Miyo has learned to keep her head down, hide her pain, and obey every order. So, it comes as no surprise that she is arranged to be married to Kudo Kiyoka, a military captain rumored to be so cruel that he has driven away every one of his potential wives so far. From a painful upbringing to a painful marriage, that's the future that awaits Miyo—or so she thinks. Contrary to her expectations, her new husband is actually kind-hearted. What really awaits Miyo is a blissful, everlasting marriage full of happiness!
In Time With You and Apple in Your Eye are similar Taiwanese dramas in the sense that they're both stories of two people who have grown up loving each other in a non-romantic form however end up loving each other romantically in the end.
While Apple In Your Eye is about a man and woman who grow up as siblings while the man secretly harbors feelings of romantic love for the woman, In Time With You is about two best friends who have known each other forever and have always dated separately but the man has secretly always been in love with the woman.
Although I can easily pick favorites out of these two, they were both VERY emotional (in terms of feeling for the guy who has loved the girl forever and has to hold his feelings back) and beautiful dramas that showed aspects of friendship, family and love. Both dramas feature emotional male leads for have to face the horror of loving a woman who only thinks of them as family.
Although both dramas are pretty darn good and worth your time, my personal choice of the two would be In Time With You. It was FANTASTIC. Loved absolutely everything about it.

Time is a woman's enemy. On her 30th birthday, Cheng You Qing received an e-mail from Li Da Ren, her male best friend of 14 years, about the symptoms of premature aging. Unable to bear the fact that, as a man, Li Da Ren is likened to a fine wine that gets better with age and that as a woman, she is likened to a grape that will dry up like a raisin over time, she makes a bet with him to see who will marry first before they turn 35.
As she scouts for a potential husband, she finds that despite whoever she meets, there is always one person whom she can be totally at ease with and who is willing to put up with her independent, ill-tempered and stubborn personality - her best friend, Li Da Ren.
The only problem is that the both of them had already sworn to each other that they would never fall in love with each other.
