Serena faces a series of life-threatening crises in New York, only to be repeatedly saved at the last moment—at the risk of his own life—by Ethan, a lowly security guard from her apartment building. After a wild night and multiple assassination attempts, Serena—desperate to avert a crisis involving a forced family marriage—lays down a $10 million deposit and compels Ethan to enter into a sham marriage with her at City Hall. Once wed, the couple must contend not only with the ruthless business tactics and vengeful fury of Austin, the son of a London financial tycoon, but also with the treacherous underworld of New York’s criminal syndicates. Amidst heart-pounding battles for survival and redemption, Serena gradually discovers Ethan’s true self; ultimately, they save one another, overcome the crisis together, and find true love.
