"Money can't buy happiness." No problem. Jane Briggs doesn't need happiness, she just needs to pay off her family's debt. A whooping 150k dollars are missing in her bank account, which she painfully realizes as the debtors come back to collect the huge sum she doesn't have. In her desperation, she follows her crazy friend's advice and fakes her identity. Jane, now rebranded as Elizabeth Vanderbilt, daughter of the owner of a huge conglomerate somewhere in England, infiltrates San Francisco's high society in search of someone to scam. A person she can trick into paying the dollars she's missing. What she didn't expect is the absolute menace that is Ivan Chen to enter the picture. The illegitimate son of the second born of the Gildenhorn-Chen empire, and unexpectedly the first in line to take over such, as the chairwoman, Ivan's grandmother, passes. He seems to be everywhere she is, always there when she finally finds a potential victim, making it nearly impossible to get the money she needs. And to make matters worse, he not only seems to be interested in her endeavors but simply in her, or rather the person she pretends to be. Will she succeed and get the money in time? And will she be able to resist the temptation of Ivan Chen's unsolicited, ever so enticing attempts at stealing her heart?
