She's tired of feeling invisible.

Irritated by co-workers who ignore her, and neighbors who hide behind their curtains, Lydia grows more restless and needy each day. No one knows she's begun to burn off her frustrations by dancing to her favorite music. No one knows the dancing has turned to stripping. No one knows she dances naked on her tiny balcony, daring someone to see her.

Then the curtains move at the apartment across the way.

Wes is drawn to the amazing woman he sees on the balcony, but he soon discovers she's not all she appears to be. As they spend the evening together, he tries to convince her that not only is she brave and beautiful…but she's worthy of anyone's attention.
