Inhibited by a fear of bugs and lost in her professional career, Eve takes a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to travel the world and discover who she truly is. But just as she's about to claim freedom, the most traumatizing bug, Lucas, confesses his love for her despite a lifetime of bullying. Haunted by his inexplicable secret, Eve leaves her routine life, alone yet determined to vanquish her fear of bugs once and for all.
While traveling the city of celebration in Australia with its iconic opera house, the culturally diverse island of Madagascar, where a bit of hostility drives an unexpected decision, and Brazil's Amazon rainforest, where she meets an incredibly sexy local guide, Eve braves countless experiences with bugs that create a new inner resolve. She learns to appreciate the need for these creatures, even if they appear frightening, and discovers a thrilling passion that makes her excited to wake up each day.
As Eve finds a way to seek peace with the existence of bugs, she equally realizes the need to forgive and move on from her lifetime bully, Lucas. But just when she's figuring out her place in this big world, multiple love interests along the way prove to make things more difficult. With her vacation coming to a close, a new fear takes hold-that the places and people she's grown to love will be lost to her just as she once was.
