"Tell me, my dear. Can a heart still break once it's stopped beating?"
Jake English, a young, poor, handsome man who has been arranged to become married to the beautiful and known-as-wealthy Jane Crocker, finds himself questioning love, marriage, and life altogether when he meets a mystery man alone one night. He spends his days with this so called 'Corpse Groom', confused yet intrigued at his behavior, looks, and tragic story of heartbreak. Will English find love with this corpse? Or will it result in nothing but another story, starting with "Ah, yes. I was indeed in love once..."
(I am well aware that this AU has been transformed into fanfictions and shit before, but this is my version so suck it bitches. Also I legit don't ship half of the people I'm about to ship each other with, it's all part of the story.)
