In the year 2050, the American government launched a ban of all music, in every form. It became a sin to hum a tune on the streets, and a capital crime to own an MP3, radio, or record player in your home. Polls were taken, amendments were passed, followed by protest rallies, wars, suicide bombings. Happiness for most, thrown in the gutter.
The year is 2175, and Ivy is the quiet housekeeper for wealthy magazine editor, Harry Styles. Just as he feared, a secret of his is surfaced by her, but he discovers that everyone has something to hide.

'The arena was huge. I mean, I knew this girl was famous, but this is as big as the stadiums I would play in during my One Direction days, and those were fucking enormous. I look out the window of the tented black vehicle I was in and see the hundreds of thousands of fans waiting outside, all dressed in skirts or dresses for the big event. "I told you Harry, this girl is huge." Frank speaks up from beside me, snapping me out of my stare. "I didn't have to come to one of her fucking shows to know that. I don't even know why I'm here." I mumble, rolling my eyes and looking out the window at the road that was moving fast beneath us. I didn't even want to be here, and if I am being honest I didn't even want to work with her. Yeah, her music is good and all, but she seems like fucking priss. I've watched a couple of her interviews, and she seems boring as hell. Sure, she's hot as fuck, but she does not seem like my type at all. "Because, you're going to be working with her for a while, Harry. Plus if this whole thing works out as planned, you're going to want to get to know her." He reminds me, winking.' ~~~~~~ It's hard to fall in love when the whole world is watching you.
