Ariadne Vassiliou is a stunning 22-year-old Greek-American high-fashion model who seems to have everything going for her. Beautiful, successful, and effortlessly elegant, she’s accustomed to attracting attention—but she knows there’s far more to a person than appearances.

Behind the glamorous career is a warm, independent young woman with a playful sense of humor, a perceptive nature, and a remarkable capacity for genuine affection. Having grown up in foster care after being abandoned as a newborn, Ariadne understands the difference between being wanted and being truly valued. She isn’t cynical about love, but she won’t settle for anything insincere.
