    Elena je svoj život pretvorila u neosvojivu utvrdu. Nakon što joj je sudbina prerano oduzela sve što je voljela, naučila je da je jedini način da preživi - da nikoga ne pušta unutra. Njezin je svijet savršeno organiziran, hladan i siguran, skrojen od skupih odijela i visokih poslovnih zgrada. Za nju, ljubav nije emocija, već rizik koji si ne može priuštiti. A onda u njezin sterilni svijet ulazi On - čovjek koji živi u onim pukotinama koje Elena pokušava sakriti. On nije princ iz bajke; on je podsjetnik na sve ono što je ona pokušala zaboraviti. Dok ona gradi zidove, on ih prepoznaje jer su njegovi vlastiti ožiljci još uvijek svježi. On ne traži njezinu masku uspješne žene, već traži djevojčicu koja se još uvijek boji mraka. Njegov ulazak u njezin život nije slučajan susret, već sudar dva brodolomca koji su mislili da je jedini spas u osami. Pitanje je samo: hoće li njezina potreba za kontrolom uništiti jedinu priliku za istinu, ili će mu dopustiti da sruši zidove prije nego što se ona u njima uguši?
