At his engagement party, Theo Carter, a plus-size young man, is publicly humiliated when his ex-fiancé and stepbrother team up to call off their betrothal. On a stormy rainy night in New York, a black Maybach pulls him over. Sebastian, the ruthless CEO of Voss Group, offers him a contract marriage: one year only. Theo will shield Sebastian from the board’s forced marriage pressure, and Sebastian will help Theo get revenge for the public betrayal. They get married at city hall and move into a luxury Fifth Avenue penthouse with strict ground rules. Online netizens mock Sebastian for marrying a 300-pound loser, but Theo gradually sheds the weak shell everyone pinned on him. Hidden beneath is sharp brilliance buried for twenty years. The broken half signet ring around his neck holds a earth-shattering secret — he is the true heir to the Ashford family’s billion-dollar trust fund.
