Photographic journalist Lea Vance lives in terror of her boyfriend until the night a powerful man steps between them and makes her feel something she hasn't in years: safe. Just as quickly as he appeared, however, he is gone, and Lea is left to wonder who he is and if she will ever have the opportunity to thank him for helping her escape.
Finally feeling like she can leave her house without being afraid, Lea heads back to work and starts a project chronicling the work of the graffiti artists throughout her city. She finds herself particularly drawn to the work of one specific tagger, and when she encounters him while taking pictures, she knows exactly why. She has found her mysterious savior again, but is she ready to let someone so bad yet so beautiful get close to her? Can she look past his harsh exterior to let him love her? Can two people haunted by their pasts get through them to find each other and the possibility for a future?
