Between dating millionaire Bennett Calloway, working as his assistant, finishing her degree, and trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life, she has little time for outside drama. But as she's brought into the limelight, it also brings her unwanted attention. When strange notes began being left for her, and someone begins sending pictures of herself to her, she tries to ignore it, desperate to continue living a normal life. But when the mysterious stalker takes it a step further, she is forced to face them. Bennett Calloway thinks his life is going his way for once, but worries when it will all come crashing down again.

Afraid of too much work falling to his little brother who has finally found some happiness in life, Lee overexerts himself, stretching him out thin to keep everyone happy. Whether it takes a toll on his relationship or not. When a dream opportunity comes up for Ariana Sosa, she has to decide whether to stay with her best friend Henley and the two men rivaling for her love or to move away to follow her dreams and leave everything behind. But everyone's lives are disrupted as a person from the past reappears, setting off a domino effect that no one can stop.

Even though Marin and Liv are close, Marin has always felt like she doesn't belong in her sister's world - that she isn't good enough.

But soon after, Connor became a Hollywood heartthrob, and Marin's love turned to hate. Liv and Connor are now working together again for the first time in four years on a movie in Toronto, and Marin can't help but feel like she is right back to her fifteen-year-old self after years of pushing him away.

But Marin has never realized that her point of view isn't the whole truth, and she has never even considered Connor's.

She the heiress to an empire and his darkest temptation. He's a ruthless attorney and her darkest addiction. Stella: I've been wrapped in the dark world of corruption all my life, becoming a picture-perfect daughter. The reins to my life were in everyone's hands except my own. It was time for that to change. Starting with a stolen two million dollars. Robbing my family was my escape from an arranged marriage and I took my chances. But I never expected my father to hire one of New York's most dangerous men to find the culprit. Rhys Romanov, the paragon of criminally intelligent. The bane of my existence. Rhys was a man with few morals and far too much power. A deadly lawyer and CEO with a devilishly handsome face to deceive this world. From the moment we met, we succumbed to animosity. Rhys had more power and authority than anyone else and with limited options, I struck a deal with the devil. Everybody had a blind spot. Rhys was mine. Making him my darkest addiction wasn't part of the plan... because it could ruin me. ... Rhys: Power, wealth, and control were the things I chased and thrived on. With only enemies in this world, I held my cards close to my chest and stayed elusive; I kept my secrets and used everybody else's against them. Running a tech company in the name of law, I ruled the world of corruption. But to lead this life, I lived by certain rules. Rules that one person dared to threaten. Stella Almonte, the epitome of elegance and grace. She had the power to draw gazes to herself. Whispers of seduction dripped from her movements that only I seemed to notice.

With a stolen two million dollars in her pocket, she was the culprit I never knew I was chasing. Until we struck a deal. Everybody had a weakness and Stella was mine. She was my darkest temptation... and she could ruin me.
