Patrick Williams and Chad Grant have known each other since preschool and have been bitter rivals for almost as long. Now adults, they both have families and careers, although they operate on very different sides of the law. Chad is one of the good guys, while everything Patrick does is corrupt, evil, and illegal.

Matters grow complicated when Patrick's son, Michael, meets and falls deeply in love with Jade, Chad's daughter. Their relationship is tumultuous, however; after one too many screw-ups, Jade leaves Michael—although he still believes they are soul mates. Chad is desperate to keep his family away from Patrick's, but Michael makes this difficult.

Meanwhile, Patrick knows their families are connected in more ways than one—and if he goes down, he plans to take Chad's family with him. Entangled in a web of scandal and deceit, Chad must fight to keep his family afloat or fall victim to the wicked plan of his lifelong nemesis.
