Mariana Hernandeź is an average 23 year old woman. She's done a lot, but what she hasn't done is fallen in love. While being in the mafia, the closest thing Mariana would ever get to love, is an arranged marriage. Luckily for her, her arranged marriage is already happening.
Roman Russo is the heir to one of those most powerful mafias in the world. He has no time for love, and really doesn't care about it. That is until Mariana is presented to be his wife in less than two weeks.
These two know the deal, this is just an arrangement to help both families. But everything sort of goes left when Roman finds interest in Mariana, and when Mariana finds Roman to be nothing like the ruthless man she heard of.
