Duxton Hill is a tale of unpredictable love which is ignited and won, lost and then ignited again. Set in the historical and whimsical area of Duxton Hill in Singapore.

Set against the backdrop of an aging boutique hotel, once a jewel of elegance in the heart of Singapore's Duxton Hill, a tropical rainstorm brings together two unlikely singles, Clara Tan and Nicholas Tate. Their personalities and cultural backgrounds at first seem at complete odds. Unbeknownst to them, their futures are very much aligned.

Through the twists and turns of a potential relationship, and the trials and tribulations of sorrow, love, friendship, courage, and the Duxton Hotel's fight for survival, Clara discovers that her tendency to fall in love too fast with every single male she encounters needs some adjustment. Her life is about to completely turn upside down when she inherits the hotel from its billionaire owner, Mr Chan.

Through having to lead and re-brand the hotel towards its new beginning, she inadvertently overcomes a sensitive and socially difficult medical condition. Her love for Nicholas develops, deepens, and blossoms as a result of her newfound confidence, on which a new life and hotel empire begins.
