Joshua Savage, All-American, Ivy League graduate and decorated Army Ranger, has fallen off the radar and living on the streets of New York when his life is turned upside down by a chance encounter with Alexis Sullivan, matriarch of the New York Sullivan fortune. Late one night after an evening out and failed attempts to hail a cab, Alexis makes the quick and life altering decision to get out of the rain and take the subway. What could happen? People do it every day. Joshua, using a Metro Pass he found on the street, has hunkered down for the night in a secluded and what he believes, is a safe spot in the subway, when his solitude is broken by the screams of a woman. When he peeks from his hiding place, he sees a woman surrounded by five men out for a night of hurt and good times. Joshua, not burdened and immobilized by the fear of normal men, makes the split-second decision to get involved. His intervention saves the life of a bloody and battered Alexis Sullivan and lands him in the hospital with near fatal stab wounds. This fateful encounter with a homeless stranger changes everything for Alexis, thrusting a reluctant hero into the headlines and opening the secretive world of the New York Sullivans to unwelcome, prying eyes.
