Bargain of Hearts

To settle her brother's gambling debts, Elaine Young is forced into a blind date arranged by her sister-in-law. She expects little, only that the man—a nouveau riche type—would be holding a red rose at the café. To her surprise, the man with the rose, Umar Abel, is strikingly handsome. Cold and direct, he reveals he’s also being pressured to marry and makes her an offer: a marriage of convenience, three million in exchange for playing his wife for three months, then a clean divorce. Elaine agrees, seeing it as a way out—but soon learns it’s all part of Umar’s plan. Years ago, Umar, then the sole heir of the Abel family, was kidnapped. Elaine helped him escape during a critical moment, stalling the kidnapper so he could flee—but she was injured and lost her memory, never remembering what happened. The kidnapper was her own father.
