The attraction they feel for one another is too hard to resist, so they let themselves fall madly in love, hard. And fast.
Just as Richmond gears up to give Kayla the very best of him by offering her his all, her secret is exposed. Now everything Richmond and Kayla worked so hard to establish with one another is threatened.
