Grant Harper is the head of a large fashion and cosmetics empire. His son Wesley is the president of the cosmetics division. Daughter Blair is a model and married to David Fenton, who has a sports shop (Tempus). He and Wesley hire their respective models in the Racine modeling agency, where 16-year-old Taryn Blake has long been the star, but has now passed the peak of her career. Her career-addicted mother Julia is her manager. The agency's new star will be 16-year-old Laurie Caswell, whose parents Michael and Dinah are initially against this career. Marjorie Harper is Grant's wife and Colette Ferrier is his main competitor in the cosmetics industry. Sara Frank is the District Attorney. She is married to the unfaithful journalist Mark Bailey.
