Ex-Marine and bar-owner Soren, the quiet loner of the Thorvald brothers, reluctantly offers himself at a "Take a Bachelor to Dinner" auction for charity. But when the minx who "won" him seems to be making a quick getaway under the table, a humiliated and angry Soren hoists her over his shoulder and storms from the ballroom.

So begins a rocky love affair between two unlikely people.

But when thirty-year-old Crystal D'Angelo's talisman tells her that Soren is The One, she's ready to give the man she's been waiting for everything—heart, soul…virginity.

Soren, whose man-woman skills are almost nonexistent, finds he is unable to stay away from the innocent but sensual Crystal who unleashes a sexual side of him he never knew existed.

But convincing Soren—who learned as a child that love hurts and no woman can be trusted with his heart—that what she feels for him is about more than magic, is a tough battle Crystal won't give up on.

As things heat up between them, a psychotic stalker takes exception to Crystal's relationship with Soren and violently turns her world upside down.
