Gideon whisks Eva to the Caribbean where they get married in a secret ceremony they decide to have a public wedding later and disguise their union as an engagement for the time being.
Since the police believe that Yedensky may have murdered Nathan, the heat is off Gideon, and he and Eva make their relationship public. Yedensky also had salacious pictures of Eva in his possession, courtesy of Nathan, who was planning to sell her into the sex trade. The cops pay Eva a visit to let her know that Nathan had ties to the Russian mob: one of its members, Andrei Yedensky, murdered by a fellow member, was found with a bracelet belonging to Nathan’s mother. Yet Gideon’s not the only one with pesky exes: rock star Brett Kline keeps pressuring Eva to see him.

But that’s not the couple’s only problem: Gideon’s ex, reporter Deanna Johnson, is intent on writing an exposé about him, while Corrine Giroux, his ex-fiancée, is still hung up on him.
