Up-and-coming event planner Alicia Mercier has just settled in London. She sacrificed the life she knew and loved in Paris to move closer to her boyfriend, Raphael, while also hoping to advance her career. But when a mysterious stranger sweeps her off her feet, she finds herself questioning her relationship with Raphael and his devotion to her.

Alicia’s new and exciting suitor is Edgar, a handsome, charming, and worldly man who seems to have everything that Raphael doesn’t: money, power, connections, and endless affection for her. But underneath his lean body and sultry grey eyes, Edgar is hiding a more sinister side, tainted by dark secrets—secrets that Alicia just might be too innocent to recognize, or too smitten to believe.
