It is a big day for registrar Kate Dickenson - her dream promotion to superintendent is about to be announced, and an anxious Kate knows not everyone is going to be pleased with the news. But even she's not prepared for what happens when fellow registrar James makes an impromptu announcement of his own, and his confession sends shock waves through the register office.

But James's bombshell soon becomes the least of Kate's worries when a disgruntled colleague threatens to expose a secret from her past that could jeopardise everything she's worked so hard to achieve. Kate's horrified to realise she's being blackmailed, and it's not just her job that could be on the line. Determined not to let to let them get away with it, Kate decides to take matters into her own hands.

Meanwhile, when a young Slovenian girl comes in to register her intention to marry, Kate's suspicions are raised when the bride and groom don't speak the same language. Kate fears this might not be the innocent engagement that they want it to appear, but is she right? Is there something more sinister going on? Or will Kate's instincts get her in trouble?

At home, Kate's alarmed when she discovers her daughter Lucy is hiding suspicious messages on her mobile. Is she being bullied or pushed into doing something she doesn't want to? And when her stepson Liam turns up unannounced to stay, the family home is fit to burst, and her relationship with partner Rob is put under pressure. But when Kate has to deal with a last minute hospice wedding at work, she's not prepared for the impact it has on her and her relationship.
