Brittany was such a lucky girl at 18 years old, she had loving parents, and a cute best friend she was harbouring feelings for when something happened, she got acquainted with Lucas the son of her mother’s employer. Naive, they became friends and had unprotected sex and Brittany had to have an abortion since Lucas's father and family members threatened to harm her if she proceeded with the pregnancy. This left Lucas, who is now 30, to join the Marines after obtaining a law degree as well as running away from a dominating father. In the military, he suffers a traumatic event which leaves him with PTSD, then has to go back to his father’s business where he is pressured to marry and produce an heir.
 
Later on, Brittany starts working on the Interior design of Lucas’s family mansion and they again meet each other. Lucas does not remember being with Brittany, but he later still feels the suffering caused by his family to her. Brittany and Lucas have a fake marriage to have control of the family business, but at the same time, Lucas fights with his PTSD and Brittany is devastated by the loss of her mother and betrayal by her family. They have to unmask Lucas’s cunning stepmother and demanding father to regain the title they both deserve and rediscover the bond they lost long ago.

A Fragile Reunion

…I wanted to say that I was not drunk but I think I giggled before lying down on a soft bed. If I knew, I would have looked at Lucas a little bit more, memorize his hair and smile. I should have run my hands through his hair like he does.

How could I have known that thousands of days and miles would be between us?

Not for once that night did I imagine that everything I felt for 'pretty face' would turn sour.

Lieutenant Mark's body was a few distance away when they started firing at me. I heard a loud sound and then I didn't hear anything again. The whole world was quiet aside from my heavy breathing.

"What's this?" I asked no one in particular.

Someone was running their hands all over my chest. I tried to grab the invisible hand and my eyes flew open.
