When the man you want to avoid is the one you really want, trouble is sure to follow.

Gift shop owner Lauren Moore's motto is 'never trust a pretty face.' Following a disastrous affair with a handsome celebrity, she's vowed to never fall for anyone like him again.

But when Australia's sexiest ex-football player, Jack Henderson, barges into her shop late one night, displaying all the charismatic characteristics she wants to avoid, Lauren is unwillingly drawn to his seductive good looks and bad-boy smile.

When Lauren is forced to accept a job offer from Jack to pay her blackmailing sister, Jack shows her that he is more than just a pretty face. But as the two grow closer, Lauren remains resistant to Jack's attempts to break down the barriers around her heart.

Can Lauren let go of the past and trust in love again?
