What you need to know before your trail

Two strangers, both recovering from loss, discover each other against the bewitching backdrop of Budapest’s thermal spa baths.

New York businesswoman Kati Dunai travels to Hungary’s capital to settle her father’s estate as quickly as possible, so she can return to work.

Jan, a rugged Dutchman, is instantly smitten. As the two grow closer while exploring Budapest, Kati learns that Jan is struggling to heal from scars, both inside and out. A terrible accident has left him recovering from injuries, but it’s another’s pain for which Jan cannot forgive himself.

All too soon, Kati must return to her hectic Manhattan life. Can Kati and Jan’s fledgling love survive the challenges of a long-distance relationship?
