When an opportunity assembly with Theodore Camden, one of many architects of a giant condo constructing in New York, Dakota, results in a job provide for Sara Smythe, her world is out of the blue crammed with new concepts. capability – no small feat for a servant in 1884. Alternative to maneuver to America. Alternative to be a feminine supervisor of Dakota. And the prospect to see extra of Theo, who is aware of Sara higher than anybody… and lives in Dakota along with his spouse and three younger kids.
100 years later, Bailey Camden craves new alternatives: Contemporary out of rehab, the previous inside designer turns into homeless, unemployed, and penniless. Bailey’s grandfather was the protégé of the well-known architect Theodore Camden, however Bailey wouldn’t see a dime within the substantial Camden household fortune; as a substitute, “cousin” Melinda – Camden’s organic niece – will inherit nearly all the pieces. So when Melinda supplied to let Bailey oversee the renovation of her lavish Dakota condo, Bailey jumped on the alternative, although she did not like Melinda’s imaginative and prescient.
