A thrilling romantic suspense saga...

As a top international model, hard-working Penelope Plessen changes her hair like other women change shoes. Jetting between runways in the world's most glamorous cities is the life she's dreamed of, yet it all implodes during Fashion Week in New York City when a run-in with a paparazzi turns deadly. Navy SEAL-turned-bodyguard, Stefan Armstrong, the man who once broke her heart, whisks her to safety.

With a killer threatening her life and paparazzi hounding her for photos, Penelope flees to her hometown of Copenhagen, where tech billionaire Kristo Demopoulos offers her sanctuary on his yacht. Yet Penelope is anxious to salvage her career and regain control of her life. Returning to her home in the Hollywood Hills, Penelope calls on Stefan for close protective services. Despite her resolve, she finds herself more attracted than ever to Stefan.

When the paparazzi threat intensifies and the threads that tie Penelope, Stefan, and Kristo tighten, the stakes escalate in a threat to end Penelope's career -- and her life.
