Being the baby girl of three brothers, January Lucci is spoiled and loves it. She gets whatever she wants and doesn’t have to lift a finger. The apple of her father’s eyes and could do no wrong. That is, until Peso starts working for August. January knows she shouldn’t fraternize with the workers. Always being one to live by the saying ‘Yolo’, she throws caution in the wind and takes a leap of faith. Will faith be able to hold her down when her brothers and father find out?
Aalia Mohammed is a fashion and make up blogger with a huge following. Her religion plays a huge part in her success. She’s the first Muslim blogger with a make up campaign. When August bumps into Aalia in the mall while vacationing in Dubai, Aalia is smitten. Knowing she could never bring a man like August home, she denies his advances. When Aalia gets permission to live abroad in America, nothing could ever be the same. Except, she’s keeping one hidden secret from him – she’s the Sheik’s daughter.
