Bianca Bridge has always dreamt of being a writer. But those dreams are derailed by a scandalous affair that leaves her blacklisted by Trinidadian society. The only work she can get is as a model - a career that she's sure her dead mother and powerful father would disapprove of. Obadiah Cortland, make-up artist and legend in the Trinidadian beauty community is looking for an assistant. But only a person with no other options would tolerate his legendary rudeness ... When Miss Bridge she reluctantly accepts the job, she comes to discover the art behind the make-up artistry and realises she may have been wrong in her ideas about beauty, but also about her own potential to fight back against the Trinidadian elite. And when the cracks begin to show in Obadiah's carefully crafted facade she realises she might just be wrong about him too...
