First comes marriage. Then comes love. Then things get really complicated. Desperate to help her ailing mother, Delphie Carteret agrees to a sham wedding with to her cousin, Gareth. His obligation to marry before his sick uncle passes will be fulfilled; her mother will be guaranteed annuity for life: the plan is perfect. But even perfect plans go awry. Not only is the marriage ceremony valid, but Gareth's dying uncle makes a miraculous recovery. Now Gareth and Delphie try to mastermind a way out of the mess.
