After years trying to break through with their work at The Image Factory, a team of graphic designers gets hired for a major branding project that could be their biggest opportunity, yet their deepest secrets start to get revealed under pressure.

Zackary Valentine has only been in love with one woman and his wild bachelor lifestyle is the facade of an insecure lonely man. After losing his mother and facing the harsh rejection of his father, Elvam Kadar deals with a deep depression while pretending all is well in his life. When Kaley Sloan finds out she's pregnant unexpectedly she's in constant fear of her friends finding out about her relationship or losing what she most desires. David Lantz who has been down in his luck throughout his whole life neglects his serious health problems while getting a chance at family life and love. Raising a teenage daughter in secret becomes a struggle for Owen McKay, especially after she runs away with her college boyfriend. Returning home to babysit his alcoholic mother was never in Nathan Larsen's plans and finding himself as the catalyst of the tensions in the studio even less.

Six paths connect through loss and love, forging friendships and relationships, but it wont be simple as life continues to throw unexpected, and at times dangerous, changes at them. Only ties thicker than blood will keep them together.

If only it was an Illusion! by Aafrynn
60 parts Complete
"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.
