“Naya is twenty one and is waiting for her twenty second birthday where she gets her trust fund left by her grandmother, grandma Millie, so she can finally leave her authoritarian father and start her life without him dictating it. but to her greatest shock her father wants her married as a way to seal a merger deal with the Carters, she wants to leave but her father threatens to expose her alcoholic mother, so she has to marry the asshole and wait until she's twenty two which is in eight months, get her trust funds, divorce him and take her mother away and live her life the way she wants it. William James Carter is the CEO of the Carter shipping empire and Is listed as one of Forbes most eligible bachelor, but when his grandfather tells him he is to marry Naya, a girl he's never heard about and no pictures of her whatsoever, he refuses because he has a girlfriend Suzanne Pierce, who his grandfather finds lacking and now his grandfather threatens to disinherit him and give the CEO position to his cousin if he refuses to marry Naya Carrington, he has to agree, now he is saddled with a wife who hates him for ruining her plans. But when romance blooms between the two of them, they both fight the dangers, lies and betrayals that surrounded them.”
