Lily chose to leave her luxurious life rather than marry a man she didn’t know. She refused to let her parents control her life any longer.
Arlo Bonde, 34 years old, a business tycoon, had no plans to marry. However, if he didn’t comply with his grandfather’s wishes, he would lose the company he had worked so hard to maintain.
Though Arlo disagreed with his grandfather’s demands, he devised his own plan. He was determined not to let his grandfather dictate his personal life, even though the company was important to him.
When Lily and Arlo crossed paths, Arlo helped her. However, there was one condition: Lily had to pretend to be his girlfriend in front of his family. Lily agreed to Arlo’s request.
As they spent more time together, Lily found herself falling for Arlo. Unintentionally, she gave herself to him, not just once but several times, despite knowing that Arlo likely wouldn’t love her beyond friendship. Could Lily keep her feelings for him hidden?
What if Lily turned out to have all the qualities Arlo was looking for in a woman? Would Arlo stand by his claim that he couldn’t commit to marriage? Would he follow his mind or his heart?
What if, one day, their happy relationship was no longer the same? Could Lily accept Arlo’s sudden change toward her? Would she be able to bear seeing the man she loved find happiness in someone else’s arms?
