Renowned photographer Chris Malone is fed up with fame and disaster. All he wants is anonymity and a chance to recharge. Suburban journalist Ellie Flannery has other ideas. If she can just convince her long-time idol to support her favorite cause, she knows her fund-raiser will be a huge success. After refusing at first, Chris decides to co-operate. When he's forced to defend his own reputation as well as his family's, he decides he wants something from the idealistic and sexy-but-doesn't-know-it Ms Flannery Ellie in return: her heart. But Ellie has scars that no one has ever seen, and she doesn't want to open herself up to anyone, much less a man with such an unflinching eye for the truth. Can Chris convince her to strip herself bare, in more ways than one?
