After nineteen year old Hannah James’ high school sweetheart breaks up with her for not taking enough chances, she decides to take a leap of faith and buy herself a one way ticket to France, even though she has no money, plan, or clue about how to speak French. Shortly upon arrival, Hannah accidentally ends up saving the life of a London socialite who takes her under her wing and shows her a brand new world full of glitz and glamour. Hannah begins to climb the social ladder faster than she can manage with the help of Flo Hepburn; but little does she know: the higher you climb, the harder you fall. But maybe, just maybe, Flo's son Peter will be there to cushion the blow.
