Phillip Niles' escape to an old European castle could cost him the only thing that money can't buy - a spirit that's free to love. When Phillip arrives in the serene countryside of southern France, he buys himself a multimillion dollar sports car and calmly speeds towards the purchase of a lifetime, a magnificent Renaissance chateau. With the expectation of some serious fun to be had with his best friend and wily old grandfather, the complication of a spirited entrepreneur next door, Angela Portman, defies his sense of escapist capitalism. She's already bought, and is renovating, the dilapidated mansion alongside his estate that he's been assured would be his to tear down. So much for French heritage laws - and that Angela learnt them first. Agitated enough by her steely independence and her clingy French contractor who could sand a staircase with his abs, she arrives at Phillip's grand party in a slinky dress and with a deal to offer - but rather than helping to mend their fences, the deal makes him question what he really wants from life. As Phillip struggles to balance corporate obligations in America with his new European lifestyle complete with race horses, exotic cars, soirees and trips to the French Riviera, Angela must decide whether achieving her dreams includes missing out on Phillip Niles altogether."
