I'm Madison Elle Maxwell, daughter of George Maxwell. He's making me marry the son of his partner and I for being wise and a bit of a rebel decides to run away and leave every good thing in my life behind.
And just when I thought life would be better when I run away, it all changes when I get to Wisconsin, the place where I decided to hide."

Nathan Heinrich is none other than your typical average player who has the whole world under his feet. With his charming good looks and sparkling green eyes, he could get any dame in this world. Not really into the thought of a married life with a wife and kids, he is the type who really wants to enjoy his bachelor life along with the playboy reputation. What if his parents thought that the best way to tame Nathan's playboy habits is to get him hitched to none other than his arch rival, Kathleen Holzknecht? She has got the money, the looks, the charm and everything, but why Nathan despises her is totally something ridiculous. With Kathleen storming into his life like a whirlwind, will Nathan change for good and leave all his habits of sleeping around and be the man of Kathleen's dreams or will bitter memories of past affect their life after marriage?
