In a southern city called Kings Port, where conservativism and old-fashioned customs have remained from before the Civil War, a young man from the north sojourns within its sacred limits and into the inner circles of society.
She’s planning the perfect dinner party to boost her career, but her handsome billionaire client is hiding a massive secret. Rachael Saunders, known as the Posh Planner, is fiercely dedicated and ready to take her event-planning business to the next level. Landing a handsome new billionaire client for an upcoming dinner party seems like the perfect opportunity to do just that. Too bad the lucrative job isn’t exactly what it seems. Tech billionaire Mason Reese never actually intended to throw a dinner party. But all of his sensible intentions went right out the window the moment he met the charming Rachael. Inventing the party gives him the perfect, strictly professional excuse to spend time with her and get to know her better. As they work closely together to plan the event, a genuine connection blossoms between them. The stakes are high: Rachael is completely focused on her career and isn't looking for love, and Mason's entire relationship with her is built on a well-meaning lie. If the truth about his deception comes out, he hopes she’ll be able to forgive him, or he risks losing her forever. Meeting each other wasn't part of either of their plans, but it might just be the ultimate game changer for both of them.
