Suddenly, Ari’s life is transformed into a whirlwind of drugs, photoshoots, and parties, all with the famous Ramsey by her side. The young couple are the darlings of the media. But in the fickle world of fashion, nothing lasts forever – and Ari’s addiction, her eating disorder and her dysfunctional relationship with Ramsey send her life spinning out of control. A Vogue cover shoot in Nepal offers Ari a make or break chance – not just to revive her ailing career, but to win back Ramsey’s love, the only thing that matters to her.
