Manhattan businesswoman Kati Dunai lives a life of international glamour. Unfortunately, she's too busy to enjoy it. But when she visits Budapest to settle her father's estate, the city's leisurely culture speaks to Kati's soul. While luxuriating in her hotel's sensuous thermal baths, Kati is drawn to another foreigner: a Dutchman named Jan.
As Jan shows Kati Budapest's unhurried pleasures, Kati introduces Jan to a slow pace of intimacy that fuels the fires of passion. Her insistence on keeping a physical distance creates space for true feelings to grow.
But Kati must return to New York to her busy career as an international conference planner. Jan wishes to continue their relationship, but between the distance, a family tragedy, and a series of misunderstandings, the two find that their slow-burn romance may not survive outside their private Budapest cocoon. Can they make the necessary sacrifices to keep their love alive?
