Nicholas Jenkins, also known as the Jenkins naughty millionaire's son has had zero problems.... if you don't refer being arrested plenty of times for crashing parties, player of the century and getting wasted as problems. Eventually his father cuts him off and sends him to New Orleans for a year to get his shit together and learn his roots.
It's not your normal town girl city boy romance story. Will they make it work? Or will it just drive them further apart.
It's a journey filled with sarcasm, romance, humor, trauma and glee.
Like a roller coaster ride, don't you think?
