A writer meets a famous actor and they fall instantly in love; but her jealous husband poses a danger in this romantic thriller. When Catherine 'Cat' Bradshaw gets an invitation to do a book signing, she can hardly believe it. Two of her dozen novels have taken off and a book store in Richmond, Virginia has tracked her down, wants to fly her in, put her up in a fancy hotel and pay her $10,000. She leaves her 6-year-old son, Jack, with her husband Randy; the marriage is effectively over but they remain married and living together for the sake of their son. In Richmond, a handsome man saves Cat's life and she knows who he is, even though they've never met; he's Colby Redmond, star of the horror television series, Jigsaw Gallery. Cat and Cole are immediately and mutually captivated with each other, as if their souls are connected. They continue to meet but as they reach the brink of sex, Cat refuses until she is divorced from her husband. In the meantime, Colby plans elaborate romantic surprises but the paparazzi's attention annoys her; and enrages Randy when he sees his wife kissing another man. Colby has disturbing dreams in which Cat asks him to take care of Jack for her. A message that's clarified only after a climatic confrontation.
