Each one is a simple escape for the other - until the security Kat has worked so hard to build for her tiny family comes under threat, and Jake has to decide if he can keep Kat a secret even if it''s at the expense of his own fame. And They Had a Great Fall is the story of two people who are going through the motions in life - until they finally look inside themselves to figure out what it takes to find a happily ever after.
