Plot – Joan Wilder is a shy writer of romances and somebody informs her that her sister has been kidnapped in Colombia. She was looking for her missing husband who, before dying, sent her a map to find a precious green stone. Joan decides to travel to Colombia to exchange the map with her sister's freedom. In Cartagena she's pursued not only by the kidnappers but even by a dangerous drug dealer who wants the map. Jack Colton, an adventurer who looks like one of her novels' heroes, intervenes by her side living with her many adventures, fortunately with a happy ending. When Joan returns to New York she's completely different. She's more beautiful, self-confident and very much in love.
