Luke is a survivor. He had a rough childhood, his Mom was a loose cannon and often left Luke to deal with things on his own at a very young age.  Mom, Cyndi, was young when she had him and her marriage to his Dad didn't last very long. Luke's Dad left when he was just a baby and never looked back. 
Growing up as a teenager in Seattle, Luke was right in the heart of grunge and alternative music. Inspired by bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Music is what gave him the will to pursue a better life. As soon as he graduated high school, he worked his way into the music biz and in his early 20's worked prepping stages for musicians and bands all over.  The first time he came to New Orleans he knew this is where he wanted to settle down. So, after his wild partying days were behind him and the time came to move on he scraped together everything he had to open his business. About a year later he was introduced to Laura by a mutual friend and he has never regretted his decision to pack up and move to a new city.

Scott and Krystal's younger daughter is completely opposite of her older sister. Michelle is the kind of girl that knows what she wants and will do whatever it takes to achieve that goal. She is stubborn, headstrong, and not afraid to say what is on her mind. Which sometimes gets her into trouble. She recently moved back home after going to college. She has a degree in business but has just finished becoming a lawyer. 
 But when it came to Benjamin, her heart and mind gave her trouble. After the crazy bet these two made to prove to each other they could be friends without benefits, caused them each to fall head over heals for each other. Michelle's indecisiveness made her flee at first when Benjamin told her how he really felt. She wanted to love him with all her heart but her mind kept telling her he was trouble.

Heir to the Trudeau Construction empire, Benjamin is set to take over the successful family business in a few more years. For most of his young adult life Benjamin lived hard and fast, a well known ladies man around town......Ask any girl who has "dated" him and she will tell you that Benjamen was afraid of commitment and would move from one girl to the next but all that changed after meeting Michelle. Best friends with Aric Metzger ,whom he has known since they were kids, because their Mothers were very good friends. But their Mother's friendship was cut short when Benjamin's mother passed away in a tragic car accident when he was 10 years old.

It wasn't easy being a single mom but she made it work at least she thought she did. Luke managed to grow up into a responsible adult despite her waywardness at times, and Cynthia couldn't be more proud of her son.

Krystal is a lot like her daughter Michelle they both have a very bold personality, when they know what they want they go for it.  
Krystal fell in love and married her much older college sweetheart, but it wasn't that easy. When Scott and her met she was engaged to Justin Trudeau, they started off as friends who met in a class at college. By the end of the semester neither could deny how they both felt for each other. At first Scott was willing to let the love of his life go, but Krystal knew she wanted him, even if it meant breaking off the engagement of the year to the well known millionaire around campus Justin Truedeau. So Krystal boldly took that rock of a ring off of her finger and told Justin she could not marry him, because she was in love with Scott Lavigne.

Scott was a late bloomer when it came to finishing college, he took a few years to find himself before studying to be an architect. Those few years made a difference otherwise he wouldn't have met the love of his life, Krystal. She was studying to be an interior designer, so naturally they had some things in common right from the start. Even though it was love at first sight for Scott, he quickly learned that Krystal was engaged to be married to Justin Trudeau. In the end Krystal followed her heart and she broke off her engagement so she could be with Scott.

Hobbies: Golfing, hunting with his sons, spending time on his ranch, family, sports...
 The constant pressure from his mother to marry and start a family was  overwhelming, after being dumped by Krystal he quickly married the next girl who said yes. So Justin and Mary-Beth were married and immediately started a family. Nine months later Benjamin was born and life was good. After Benjamin it was a struggle for the two to get pregnant again, finally some years later Mary-Beth gave birth to twins, Colton and Kenzie. Sadly these two would never get to know their mother, Mary-Beth passed away late one night when she was driving home, killed by a drunk, wrong way driver. Justin was a mess for a long time, that is until he met the much younger and beautiful Ellie Sinclair.

Ellie may seem like a gold digger, but she's not. She always knew she wanted a better life for herself, and if it meant working hard to get there she was all for it.
Then one day she found herself in a new job working for Trudeau Construction. So she worked hard and eventually found herself working as the lead secretary for the CEO Justin Trudeau. The romance was unexpected between the two but found they had a lot in common. When Ellie turned up pregnant, Justin decided that it was best if they marry. The family was  not on board at first but once they could see he was happy, and Ellie was a sweet genuine person, they let it go. It took a long time to gain Erica's approval but she finally did and life has been sweet.

Kenzie is still undecided what she wants to do with her life. She has changed her major at college several times, and thinking of changing it again...This has left Grandma Trudeau in a tizzy, she loathes indecisiveness, and is constantly pressuring Kenzie to help her father with the family business. Kenzie is more of a free spirit like her mother and I'm sure she will settle on a career path at some point.

Kenzie introduced her brother to Jacob after she met and got to know him while workig for Luke at Vintage Vinyl one summer. The two have been exclusively dating since then!

James is the older twin, to Erica's only two children James and Justin Trudeau. Erica had high hopes for her two sons to run the family business. As you can imagine, this did not go over well with Erica, but James wanted nothing to do with it. So there was a lot of bickering over it, James went off and eloped against his parents wishes, pretty much ending the feud, but he hasn't been as close to his family since...James doesn't mind he was glad to be away from all the drama and settle for a nice quiet life out in the country, and he has never regretted it.

Marilyn, had always envisioned herself marrying one of the local cowboys, and not some city slicker wanna be. But James proved her wrong, he may have come from money, but he knew his way around animals and a farm. Before she knew it she had fallen head over heels for him and that gorgeous twinkling smile, the kind that make all the ladies swoon.

But there's been a lot of bumps in the road along the way, after James left, Justin was the sole heir. Then she had hopes that Krystal would be that strong woman by her son's side, when that fell through she was not happy. Erica continued to run the company with Justin, then Benjamin was born and she took the opportunity to start training him to take over, Benjamin was the apple of her eye. Then drama yet again threatened her family name when she learned Benjamin wanted to marry, Michelle.

Hobbies: anything that gives him that adrenaline rush! and Fionna is one of them!

Cade is Rufus' former body guard. Even back then he was scary and the second he gave Rufus reason to fire him, she had the manager do it. After that it was really hard for him to find work, so Cade turned to a much darker side of the business/hollywood world to make money. So when Peter finally tracked him down and told him that Rufus was causing Luke heartache, he didn't think twice about coming to get revenge on her.

Hobbies: working out, target practice, and Cade

Fionna met Peter after Luke had already packed up and left. Fionna found her way into all of it as a groupie at first. Fionna was a great distraction for Peter and they both had much in common. She ended up just following him since she had nothing better to do. There is still much to learn about her. She is quiet and doesn't speak much.

Well Fionna finally spoke! As most of us know she ended up two timing Peter then got herself kidnapped by Cade and somehow madly fell in lov with the guy...
