While attempting to hide in plain sight from a world she fears only wants to use her, she is claimed as a personal stylist by vivacious socialite, Vérité Claire, a glamorous eccentric with a penchant for guiding talented oddballs to meet their potential. Her curious crew includes sassy housekeeper, Lotte, insanely territorial biographer, Bernard, and eventually Orson Vaughn, a hulking outcast living in self-imposed exile since being betrayed in his shameful past. In spite of Julia's trust issues and Orson's tendency towards self-sabotage, they grow closer through a series of exchanged favours until two people who are trying very hard to be invisible are seeing an awful lot of each other.
