Shane can't help the way he feels, but when he tries to share those feelings with his wife, she explodes, leaving him standing alone and soon divorcing him.
Shane licks his wounds for more than a year, struggling to get a handle on his desire and lock those inappropriate thoughts away. At last, chance guides a new girl, Saya, in his path, and this time he promises himself he won't mess things up.
But life is messy, and fate has a twisted sense of humor. On their honeymoon, they discover people from work staying at the same resort. Saya and Shane must keep their marriage a secret so they accept the aid of a new friend, Gordon, who is happy to help them hide.
Pretending he is her husband, Gordon and Saya grow ever closer, reigniting the feelings Shane had long ago buried, and threatening to cost him his new marriage too.
But Saya is nothing like his first wife, and surprises Shane in ways he never expected.
