**COMPLETED AND EDITING**
A man was murdered in his home, leaving only his daughter Penelope Marshall.
He was a power-hungry, company-owning man that can barely be called a father. After Penelope's mother left, her father preferred fists and harsh words over hugs and comforting words. For ten years, Penny was trapped under her father's heel. Her only joy coming from performing in local theater.
After his murder, she thought she was free, finally able to live her life how she wanted. Until she learned of her father's will on the day of his funeral.
She has to marry a random person, the CEO of a company she has never heard of.
She is forced to move to New York and marry into the Romano family. Unfortunately, the man she has to marry, Quentin Romano, is beyond stubborn and vowed to make his young woman's life impossible.
Penny is forced to navigate a new city, a declining mental health, an absent husband, a new job, and a murder mystery. Maybe even love.
"What's the matter gorgeous? Cat got your tongue?"
