13 parts Ongoing My name is Mayella Amery, and I ran away from my wealthy family.
***
Mayella was only 17 years old when she decided to leave everything and everyone she knew behind and start her own life. Growing up with one of the wealthiest and most powerful families in Boston, Mayella witnessed firsthand the dark side of how great wealth and greed can corrupt people. Never feeling like she fit in, Mayella only felt alone and invisible in a house that was supposed to be her home.
Now, living in New York and known as "Maya", Mayella graduated with a degree in computer science, works as a piano teacher, and hustles as a waitress, all to make a living as an average 22-year-old New Yorker.
Mayella loves her new life and is proud of the little things she has. She doesn't regret leaving her family and fortune; she would do anything to protect her new life.
However, everything changes when Mayella gets pulled back into the world she ran away from. Being an Amery daughter is a title she does not want, and it's coming back to haunt her. In this case, Mayella is being forced into an arrangement with a stranger she can't stand, Maxwell Caddell.
Everything she worked for is stripped away, but Mayella will not sacrifice her freedom this easily.
Thrown back into the world she desperately wants out of, Mayella is up against more than she could have ever imagined.
In just seconds, her life has become a lot more passionate, thrilling, and most of all, dangerous.
