    She had finally gotten away from her hateful sister Cassandra Kendell and became a nanny to Cab and Dana Howard’s baby girl. Raini had a very dark past and she kept her secrets to herself out of fear that if her new employers discovered her shame, she would have no other alternative but to return to her sister and live the remainder of her life in hell. Dizzy Howard was the most sensitive of the five Howard Brothers, and ever since he was a small boy, he felt obligated to help the downtrodden or wounded, be they animal or human. When he first met Raini Smith in LA, she was the type of person that his heart always went out to. So he befriended her with the intention of bringing her out of her shell and showing her that just like anyone else, she too could have a happy life and existence. Unfortunately, there was a problem. He had no intention of ever falling in love with Raini, but he did, and if what his siblings were telling him was true, then Raini had fallen in love with him as well. Although she never voiced how she felt for him or ever displayed any kind of affection towards him, Dizzy felt that even though what he was feeling was right, the timing was all wrong. Raini was far too fragile to deal with any kind of emotional entanglement in her present condition and because of that, he tried his best to remain emotionally detached. But Dizzy didn’t kid himself. He knew that in spite of the oversized drab clothing that she always hid herself inside of, there was a beautiful woman underneath just waiting to be released. When his sisters took a dowdy Raini under their wings and gave her a coming out transformation of sorts, Diz was floored by the beautiful butterfly that had finally emerged from her cocoon. He wanted her now more than ever, but being a little confused by his feelings for her, he stubbornly refused to let his heart go and set out to dowse the flames of his growing attraction, offering only a token friendship instead.
