[EDITED]

Lyra Van Hayes is the youngest daughter in her family, and that guaranteed her an easy path to success and wealth. When at university, her brother recommended she work at Crowned Enterprises, as the PA to the famous: Mr James Stone.
The relationship between her and Mr Stone, obviously, got out of hand when she caught sight of a frustrated man in need of a distraction. But the relationship walks past warning signs when her sister decides to make her the maid of honour, while James takes up the role of the groom's best man at the same wedding. 
But what happens when a secret starts to grow and starts to naturally grab a lot of attention? Is Stone really in love with Van Hayes or is he just addicted to using her for his own pleasure? Can the two really figure out where they stand, without causing any drama at a wedding that is not theirs? Even after his ex makes an appearance and her mother starts to stick her nose into their businesses?
