The McKenna men are messy and broken and HONESTLY I wouldn’t want them to be any different. 

Connie and Huxley first cross paths shortly after he gets out of prison when they’re both attending his brother and his fiancée, Ozzy and James’, engagement party. however Huxley then realizes that he’s been caught in Connie’s orbit and he can’t seem to find his way out, no matter how much he tries or wants to forget about what happened that night. He just can’t seem to shake Connie from his system. 

Connie announces to the group that she’s had enough of living in LA and announces to her friends that she’s moving back to Marsford Bay and purchasing a local theatre, and Huxley’s volunteered by his family to help her with the renovations.  Only, Huxley isn’t the only one who’s still thinking about that night, but Connie’s walls that she’s built over the years are making it harder for her to open up.  

Messy, messy, messssssy, these two are messy but the tension and angst are there right from the beginning.
