Someone with the right social standing, someone who can make him look perfect. Desperate, Roman makes a reckless wager with his best friend: If he can make a complete stranger fall in love with him in six months, his friend will arrange a perfect, no-strings marriage. If he fails, he'll retire from the company forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe next morning, Roman wakes up to find himself married to the last woman he ever expected: Lily. An eccentric artist with no wealth or social connections, Lily is escaping a dark past and a dangerous relationship. To claim her inheritance, she needs a husband, and Roman's convenient offer seems like the perfect solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeither of them expects anything beyond a temporary arrangement-no feelings, no complications, just six months before they go their separate ways.

Feelings become tangled, and the line between obligation and love blurs.

Roman's dark past looms over them, and his refusal to fully open up could cost them everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a battle between career, love, and the scars they carry, will Roman and Lily finally open their hearts?
