Alison is a farm girl from Iowa, and everything she loves is about to be taken. Her grandmother faces prison and the bank wants the land. The only way out is a signed contract making her the wife of Preston, a billionaire who expects nothing more than a business arrangement.
In Manhattan, Alison refuses to live on his money. She fights her way into the pastry world, where she meets vicious hazing, a stolen recipe and a rival named Renee whose schemes turn dangerous. Every win in the kitchen brings her closer to Preston, and the question becomes whether a deal signed out of desperation can turn into the real thing.
