В Нью-Йорке происходит серия громких убийств молодых девушек. Убийца, получивший в прессе прозвище «Ядовитый любовник», бросает вызов общественности, выкладывая в сеть страшно-красивые снимки своих жертв. К резонансному расследованию присоединяется молодой агент Эрика Доусон, чья подруга оказалась в числе убитых. На первом же задании Эрика сталкивается с неожиданной преградой в лице загадочного и сексуального художника Джейдана Престона, по ряду причин попавшего в список подозреваемых. Запретное влечение, возникшее к возможному убийце, может стоить ей карьеры и жизни. Жертвами «ядовитого» маньяка, становятся исключительно девушки с восточными корнями: он украшает их брильянтами, обнажает тела и скрывает лица масками, оставляя на коже арабскую вязь, значение которой предстоит расшифровать Эрике Доусон. Каково это осознавать, что в плену роковой страсти, каждый вдох может стать последним? И почему, ей кажется, что за маской циничного художника может скрываться еще более опасный хищник?

“You can call me when you’re lonely. I’ll be your temporary fix.” Those were the words that he said to me and it was plain simple, he wanted nothing but sex and I wanted nothing more than too. I was the kind of girl who was too scared of falling in love again because I feel like there is something more in life than being mournful over a guy who never actually gave a hell. I deserve something more than pain and misery over a stupid heartbreak. Since then, I got too scared of commitment that I no longer wanted to be in one. I wanted fun and I wanted to feel like I am alive again. He was the kind of guy who was too busy for permanent relationships. The superstar that all women wanted to bang with. The kind of guy who would have any girls kneel down in front of him because well, he is that kind of guy. He was a guy with a hectic schedule, sold out world tours, drinking champagne in private jets, holding a mic in one hand and conquering all over the world on the other. Maybe I needed someone to show me how to live again and he needed someone to show him how to love.
