Due to the late marquis’s final will, Jewel is to marry Blake, the man who has now inherited the title. Though she feels a quiet joy at becoming the wife of the man she’s admired since childhood, their union is nothing more than a formality—to secure Blake’s claim to the marquisate. You see, Jewel had previously entered a marriage in name only with the former marquis for special reasons. In the will, it was arranged that if Blake were deemed unfit to rule, the estate would instead pass to Jewel. Because of this clause, Blake suspects Jewel of being a gold-digging schemer and treats her coldly. And so begins their rocky, awkward marriage—a love fantasy about a prideful couple in a temporary contract marriage, struggling to open their hearts.
