Newly minted as an orphan, 17-year-old Keeley Duncan has always been incredibly gorgeous. Her estranged Grandma Duncan happens to have need of a gorgeous girl.
When her mother dies, Keeley has no choice but to live with her cruel, scheming aunt and uncle. Desperate for help, Keeley calls her aloof multi-millionaire grandma, Elizabeth Duncan.
Lucky for Keeley, Granny has a nemesis- Lady Barbra Ashbourne, a hateful old woman from England. Lady Ashbourne's grandson, Lord George Hervey, is going to inherit a grand estate in Derbyshire, along with untold wealth- if he stays single until he's at least 21.
Grandma Duncan thinks gorgeous Keeley is the perfect girl to tempt George away from his inheritance. If Keeley can trick Lord Hervey into appearing with her as a couple in front of the press, good old Grandma will give Keeley 15 million dollars. That's more than enough to fulfill Keeley's every dream, and to ensure that she never has to see her cruel aunt and uncle ever again.
Keeley throws herself into the web of deception that her grandmother has woven for her, determined to rob Lord Hervey of his inheritance. But when her feelings start interfering with her scheming, and her horrible Aunt and Uncle Jameson get wind of Granny Duncan's plan, things get really, really complicated.
And why, exactly, did her mother die in the first place?
