They wake up next to each other every morning, yet on their own sides. They have breakfast together, in utter silence. And then later at night, return to their sides for bed.
Three years into the marriage, Zara and Alexander haven't found it in themselves to...well...talk.

Liam's broke, which is quite a surprise to him, and all he needs is a shoulder to get back up. But friends who only existed because of his money have waltzed away (again, a surprise to him), he decides to take a break...and head down to his brother's, who he hasn't spoken to since he moved out.

The problem in the situation is their ignorance of facts.
Liam doesn't know who his brother is married to.
Zara doesn't know who this brother of her husband is, who apparently wants to come stay at their place.
Alexander doesn't know that his wife and his brother were once in love.

As holidays kick in, so does the chaos, and a lot of heartbreaking drama.
