Perfect Strangers [2003]

When Melanie goes home from the pub with a handsome stranger, she’s captivated by his charm and attentiveness.

He sails her away to his ‘castle’ – a rundown shack on a deserted island. But when seduction becomes deception and passion becomes possession, Melanie realises that she has been kidnapped.

Torn between fear and desire, Melanie must escape – but her ardent admirer has other plans.
