Facing an immediate hundred-thousand-dollar hospital bill to save her grandfather's life, Tess assists Knox Romano, a dangerous mafia heir poisoned with an intoxicating chemical in a dark alley.

Knox tracks her down across the boroughs, offering an eight-hundred-million-dollar contractual marriage allowing her complete financial freedom once the children are born.

As Knox's possessive jealousy flares whenever rival suitors approach, their temporary bargain becomes an unbreakable bond.
