. Multe lucruri intrau în planurile miliardarului Christian Cross pentru viitorul apropiat: femei frumoase, un cont bancar în continuă creştere, petreceri exclusiviste, vânate de paparazzi, dar niciunul dintre aceste planuri nu implica cunoaşterea unei anumite Maya Evans într-una dintre aventurile sale de o noapte. Spontană, amuzantă și dezinvoltă, este complet diferită de femeile de care este înconjurat, iar inocenţa şi frumuseţea ei naturală îl fac pe Christian să îşi dorească să posede fiecare părticică din corpul şi inima ei. Niciodată nu s-ar fi asteptat Maya Evans să aibă o aventură de o noapte, cu atât mai puţin cu un miliardar afemeiat şi incredibil de arătos. Dar, după noaptea care le dă lumea peste cap amândurora, Maya încearcă să lase în urmă amintirea unui anumit necunoscut ce îi domină gândurile şi, să revină la viaţa ei obişnuită, lucru devenit imposibil însă, când soarta îi pune din nou faţă în faţă. Ea îi urăşte posesivitatea, el nu-i suportă încăpăţânarea şi independenţa. Amândoi simt atracţia irezistibilă dintre ei şi niciunul nu o poate nega. Dar, vor reuşi Maya şi Christian să treacă peste diferenţele atât de mari dintre ei, peste toate problemele ce îi pun mereu în conflict şi să accepte o relaţie care îi va schimba, inevitabil, pentru totdeauna? © All rights reserved 2014 Trailer realizat de MayaCrazyKat (adică eu, duh!)
