Leah Rhodes thought Jordan Hayes was suppose to be her perfect man, attractive, smart, funny, most of all... she thought he would be loyal.
But there she was, hurt from the betrayal of her fiancee and her own cousin sleeping together. Sitting at a bar and planning on drowning her sorrows in alcohol in her freshly muddy and ruined wedding dress.
His cheating had probably been a blessing in disguise anyways, hitting her had started to become his favorite past time and she had needed a way out. But none of that mattered to Leah, what mattered was getting the hell out of Seattle and starting fresh somewhere new, somewhere with more sun.
So without warning, Leah and her friends Kyra and Beck moved to Los Angeles. Now 8 months later she and her friends were living their best lives. But Leah was still having trouble letting go of her past and feeling confident, something Jordan had robbed her of during their relationship.
And here enters Grayson Hart, her boss's son. He was cocky, sarcastic, charming, and way too handsome for his own good. But he had a goal, to show Leah how much of a goddess she really is. To show her, there really was just something about the sunshine.

I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you.

"-So try it" Grayson says suddenly to Brea. "Try what?" Her eyebrow raises with intrigue. "You said you can snap your fingers and turn your feelings off... like a light switch, you said, just like that?! So, fall in love with me and then one day...just... stop. and move on," Brea was taken aback by his words, thinking there's no way he was serious. Unimpressed, she gets up to leave and laughs at him saying,"you're crazy." But as she shakes her head, on her way to the door, he grabs her arm and says,"no, I'm serious, B. If you're telling the truth that you have great communication skills and don't get clingy or jealous, then what's the worst that could happen?" She lets out nothing but honesty,"I never said I had great communication skills." "It was implied. So what do you say?" He puts his hand out for her to shake and agree on the proposal. She looks at it then joins his hand and asks,"how long?" "A year," Grayson suggests easily. She disagrees which prompts him to ask her,"how long does it take you to say you love someone?" Brea hesitates to answer, knowing she's never been in love before. "Six months, take it or leave it," they agree.
