Recorded in 1982, the album was produced by John Farrar (of Olivia Newton-John fame) and David Wolfert and it is her first collaboration with composer and producer Desmond Child. The album was promoted only on American Bandstand and Solid Gold. It failed to chart and was largely ignored by critics. The album was released on CD for the first time in 1989 by "The Entertainment Company", Columbia Records and CBS Records International. Later, in 1999, the album was reissued on the Varèse Sarabande reissue label under license from Sony Music.

The album contains various musical styles: the rock style of Black Rose on cuts such as "Walk with Me", "The Book of Love", and "Rudy"; a slight new wave sound in "I Paralyze"; some ballads such as "When the Love Is Gone" and "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?"; and an "old '80s" style on "Back On the Street Again" (a retitled cover of The Babys' "Back on My Feet Again") and "Games", which was recorded by Lisa Hartman for her 1982 album Letterock. "Rudy" and "I Paralyze" were released as singles to promote the album, but they were both unsuccessful. "Rudy" was originally recorded by French singer Dalida as "Quand je n'aime plus, je m'en vais".

In 1981 Cher recorded a song with Meat Loaf called "Dead Ringer for Love" for his album Dead Ringer; the song was a hit in the UK, but was left off her album.

All tracks produced by David Wolfert except "I Paralyze" by John Farrar.
