She's a new maid at the luxurious Patras Hotel and aims to keep her job no matter what. But that doesn't mean she's going to sacrifice her dignity, or let anyone into her heart. The risk of losing either is just too great. When hotel tycoon Lucian Patras discovers Evelyn in a compromising position, he uses everything at his disposal to seduce her--a proposition that both surprises and frightens her.
