First love can be innocent or intense, intoxicating… or insatiable. 

Nicole Walker (Reese Witherspoon) always dreamed of being swept away by someone special—someone strong, sexy and sensitive who would care for her more than anything else in the world. David (Mark Wahlberg) is all that and more: a modern-day knight who charms and seduces her, body and soul. However, Nicole soon finds out that her perfect boyfriend is not all he seems to be. His sweet façade masks a savage, dark side that will soon transform her dream into a nightmare. This provocative thriller will lure you past the brink of terror and keep you on the edge of your seat!
