Young Angelique is a recent immigrant to Canada from France, running from a broken heart, a broken family, and a life that she seeks to leave behind in exchange for a new existence in a new world. She meets the mysterious and beautiful Nina, a woman for whom money and power have no boundaries and the social morals imposed by society have no bearing. Nina runs a business that offers fantasy services to men, with slave/master relationships and dollars running the operation - more dollars than Angelique has ever seen and a lifestyle beyond her wildest dreams. Nina gives Angelique the sense of power and control she so craves , and a sense of cognition and awareness. She gives Angelique a number of her slaves and counsels her protégé on how to handle them, warning against falling in love. But Angelique falls for the married Nina, and later for the strange and handsome Geoffrey. Can Angelique flourish in this illicit world, or will the pull of real love, new sensation, and desire trump the fantasies she is paid to perform?
