Kane Rockwell, Managing Partner at Rockwell, Rockwell, and Specter law firm, is introverted, keeps his personal life private, and has a permanent scowl etched onto his face.
Daphne Lovelace, social media manager at Rockwell, Rockwell, and Specter, has worked at the firm for 4 years, is the light of the office, and works hard to keep the firm a positive workplace, despite the grumpy partners who run it.
Daphne gets pulled into Kane's scheme to earn his inheritance after his father's passing by faking an engagement. Kane offers Daphne the office, promotion, and raise that she has been asking for, for the last three years... as long as she helps him make this a believable engagement to the executor, his family, and, the part that Daphne hates most, to their entire office.

slowly forgets that you even exist?
