Synopsis

Love triangles are always complex but when you’re married to both men in the triangle, things get particularly tricky... Bella Lawrence secretly married her childhood sweetheart, Stevie, over a decade ago. Things were fine whilst they were at university, but reality didn’t hit until they graduated and it wasn’t long before they nose-dived from ‘love’s young dream’ to ‘ghoulish nightmare’. When Bella couldn’t take it anymore she left for a commitment-free existence in London. Years later Bella meets Philip and despite her vow never to get seriously involved with anyone again, she can’t resist him. She impulsively agrees to his proposal but never quite finds the perfect moment to tell him about her past. Bella plans never to reveal her secret - after all, Stevie is no longer part of her life, despite that silly piece of paper filed so long ago in an Aberdeen wedding chapel. She hasn’t seen him for years. But Bella’s best friend, Laura, has fallen in love with a new man...a man who turns out to be none other than Stevie. Could things get more complicated? Only if Bella and Stevie fall in love with each other again...
