Engaged to a shallow woman with whom he has a passionless marriage, he has grown used to following a routine without caring about what’s missing in his life. Until, one casual night, an encounter with Emma changes everything.
What begins as a one-night, no-strings-attached affair soon turns into a mutual obsession. Neither can stop thinking about the other, and what seemed like just a fleeting adventure becomes something deeper and more complicated. When Emma reveals that she is married, Nicolas becomes furious. At first, he feels betrayed and frustrated, but soon realizes that Emma's marriage is more of a prison than a union.
He then decides that, even though she is still married, he won’t let her go so easily. Nicolas chooses to fight for her, believing that she deserves more than a life of control and abuse.
As Emma deals with the pressure of her dysfunctional marriage and the conflicting feelings that arise for Nicolas, he is determined to help her break free. Between William’s power plays and the growing desire between her and Nicolas, Emma will have to face her own insecurities and fears, deciding whether she can break away from her painful past and follow her heart’s call.
Will Nicolas be able to win Emma over and help her find the strength to free herself from William? Or will she be consumed by loyalty and the fear of the unknown, unable to break free and live a true love? Emma's journey is just beginning, and she will have to make difficult choices to rediscover herself and perhaps true love.
