Bethany Randford had come into some money and, after finishing her schooling in Australia, decided to buy a hotel in Buenos Aires, way out of her comfort zone, but met the man she could just not resist. Marrying him brought more than she had bargained for, from ongoing obsessions of a woman in the family past. Thinking that had been dealt with, she went with her husband to Paris to meet his sister and family, only to find herself in even more dramatic circumstances with obstacles to overcome.
