Miles worked as a photojournalist in a small news publication. For the past four years, he had been trying to make ends meet by taking photos of celebrities and giving them to his work or selling it to other publications if the pay was considerable.
He never really had any game when it came to getting a huge scoop because aside from the fact that his camera was of lower quality than the others, his luck of getting good photos - even of low quality, wasn't on his side.
Not until at one point out of desperation, he was able to capture a photo of Soren Chandler - the celebrity of the year that everyone talks about. It was the only photo that captured Soren Chandler directly looking at the camera.
In an instant, Miles' life turned upside down.
Not in a good way.
"Soren Chandler wants to work with you," Jackson, the editor-in-chief of the news publication he was working at told him.
Little did Miles know was that his life was about to change. The eyes focused on the lenses of a camera will never notice the man wanting to be seen.

One day LLoyd would inherit the Seton property empire, a business which Miles's father had created from scratch and which Miles now ran.

But then his friend Max, whom he had known since childhood, had told Miles that Rose was cheating on him and he had the evidence to prove it.
