Evelisse Mariel Beaumont is a 24-year-old perfumery owner, running L'Or d'Évelisse with grace, independence, and a touch of stubborn charm. Her life seems perfectly ordinary-until a hidden clause in her late grandfather's will turns everything upside down.
To claim her inheritance, she must marry Kiev Xander Navarro, a successful 27-year-old watchmaker and businessman.
The arrangement isn't born of love, but of a promise made long ago to bind their families together.
With a year before the wedding, Kiev proposes an unusual plan: they'll spend the months truly getting to know each other. From dinners and park dates to late-night city drives and shared secrets in their offices, Evelisse and Kiev stand between what was arranged... and what became real.
But sparks fly, jealousy simmers, and what starts as a cautious experiment soon becomes something neither of them expected. As feelings deepen, so do the stakes-especially when friends, rivals, and unspoken truths threaten to upend the life they're building together.
With the clock ticking toward the wedding, will their love survive-or will hidden truths shatter everything they've built? One year. One promise. And a choice that could either cement their love or destroy it forever.
Will Evelisse and Kiev surrender to the undeniable pull between them, or will the clock run out before they have a chance to claim their future together?
