Beautiful but clumsy, shy but courageous, independent but lonely, Kara MacKenzie is a paradox of emotions. Michel Vernier is an artist with his own demons to face. When these two characters meet, their path to love is not an easy one. It is a journey that will end happily only if Kara has the strength to put aside her self-doubts and Michel, his pride.

In his charismatic way, Michel helps Kara bring her photography company back from the brink of ruin after her former fiancé raids her client list as an act of revenge. But when Michel feels that their relationship is heading from the boardroom towards something more intimate, he shies away.

Hurt and confused by his rejection, Kara must decide if she can put her heart on the line again and learn the truth behind Michel's own fears.
