When fiery and independent Rose Daniels is forced into a marriage of convenience with Ethan Lancaster, the spoiled and arrogant heir to the Lancaster empire, she knows she's walking into a storm. Their union isn't born of love-it's a cold, calculated move orchestrated by her estranged mother and stepfather, desperate to solidify their ties to the Lancaster fortune. Ethan, the older of two brothers, is used to getting what he wants, no matter the cost. Arrogant and charming in equal measure, he views the marriage as another pawn in his game of power.
