Plot
Rachel Maleman (Meredith Monroe) is an event planner at a hotel in Philadelphia. She used to date her co-worker John Anderson (Brett Watson), however, he cheated on her. She started online dating and met Craig Miller (Jason Gray-Stanford), a wealthy businessman who runs his mother's real estate company. The two start going out on dates and at the same time, John still has feelings for Rachel. After seeing John and Rachel go out for lunch together, Craig's brother, Ryan (Damon Runyan) is sent to kill John, because of Craig's jealousy. A private investigator named Jerry Berman (Bill Lake) is hired by the father of one of Craig's ex-girlfriends, named Dominique (Allison Brennan), who went missing. She was actually murdered by Craig when she told him that she was pregnant. Another girl that Craig dated, named Melissa (Sophie Gendron) was assaulted by Craig, in which he paid her to keep quiet about the incident. Now, after dating Rachel for a while with John out of the picture, Craig proposes to her. Upon wedding dress shopping, Rachel and her friend and co-worker Laura (Krista Morin) see Craig stop by at the boutique. He then picks out a dress that both Rachel and Laura do not approve of, but purchases it anyway. Craig asks his fiancee to quit her job at the hotel and work at his house, by starting her own event planning business, just so that he could spend more time with her. After he belittled her job and explained about his past relationships, this caused her to have concern and re-think about getting married. Throughout the film, Craig is revealed to be more controlling and obsessive. He kidnaps his fiancee and abandons their dog, Cody, at the side of the road. Rachel is in jeopardy when Craig becomes abusive towards her and eventually holds her at gunpoint when police arrive. He then gets shot by Mr. Berman.
