[WARNING: SPG] Gwapo, playboy at malakas ang appeal. Iilan lang iyan sa mga katangian ng bilyonaryong si Kian Fuentavilla kaya napakaraming babaeng nagkakadarapa sa kanya—maliban kay Jhymea Madrigal. Isang dalagang manang kung manamit at madalas pang napagkakamalang lola at mambabarang. Panget si Jhymea, at aminado naman siya roon, pero para sa kanya ay may karapatan pa rin naman siyang mamili kaya inayawan niya si Kian na kahit mala-Adonis na ang datingan ay ubod naman ng yabang. Unang pagkikita pa lang ng dalawa ay nagkairingan na sila. Labis na dinibdib ni Jhymea na tinawag siyang ‘janitress’ at ‘ipis’ ng binata at ganun din si Kian sa kanya nang mapunit ang pwètan ng slacks nito dahil sa dalaga. Halos isumpa nila ang isa't isa hanggang napagdesisyunan ng kapatid ni Kian na si Nexie Fuentavilla na mag one-night stand silang dalawa. Kapalit nun ay ang impormasyong hinihingi ni Kian tungkol sa ex niyang si Tanya, at pera naman para kay Jhymea para mapauwi na niya sa bansa ang ina niyang OFW na kay tagal niyang ‘di nakasama. Dahil sa pagiging maloko ni Kian ay pinalabas niyang nabutas ang còndom na ginamit niya sa pakikipagtalik sa dalaga. Ilang linggo iyong iniyakan ni Jhymea kasi ang buong akala niya ay hindi na siya makaka-graduate, ngunit nahuli niya ang binata nung minsan ay may kausap ito sa telepono at inamin nito ang lahat. Doon ay naisip na gumanti ni Jhymea at pinalabas na totoong nabuntis nga siya ng binata. Nakarating ang tsismis na yun sa ina ni Kian na si Mrs. Anita Fuentavilla. Nagkukumahog na nagpaliwanag ang dalawa na hindi totoo ang lahat pero huli na kasi nagawan na sila ng kontrata ng ginang sa nalalapit nilang kasal. Matakasan kaya nila ang kapalarang nagsimula sa isang laro lamang? O mauuwi na ang lahat sa totoong pag-iibigan?

Lumaki si Calista Althea Chiu sa isang makapangyarihan ngunit istriktong Chinese family—kung saan ang tradisyon ay batas at ang babae ay kailangang sumunod, kahit masaktan. Mayaman ang pamilyang kinalakihan niya, ngunit sa likod ng karangyaan, isa siyang bihag ng sariling kapalaran. Sa tatlong magkakapatid, siya ang nag-iisang babae at middle child—tahimik, masunurin, at laging isinasantabi ang sariling damdamin. Ngunit isang gabi, tuluyang nagbago ang lahat. Dahil sa desperadong pangangailangan ng pera ng kanyang kuya at sa malaking pagkakautang ng kanilang pamilya sa makapangyarihang Wang family, isang lihim na kasunduan ang isinagawa. Isang desisyong hindi niya kailanman pinili. Ibinenta si Calista bilang isang “regalo” sa kaarawan ng lalaking minsan na niyang nakita sa Shanghai—ang malamig at misteryosong billionaire heir ng Monaco, si Marcus Romanov. Para kay Marcus, ang lahat ay transaksyon. Ngunit kahit pilitin niyang limutin, hindi niya maalis sa isip ang gabing pinagsaluhan nila. Para kay Calista, iyon ang gabing ninakaw ang kanyang kinabukasan. Hindi nila namamalayan, unti-unti silang nahuhulog sa isa’t isa—isang damdaming isinilang sa gitna ng kapangyarihan, katahimikan, at mga lihim na pilit itinatago. Ngunit may isang lalaking hindi handang bumitaw. Si Lixin Wang, ang mayamang Chinese heir at lalaking itinakdang pakasalan si Calista, ay handang ipaglaban ang paniniwalang pag-aari niya ito—kahit sa pamamagitan ng takot at kapangyarihan. Sa pagitan ng tradisyon at pag-ibig, obligasyon at kalayaan, kailangang pumili ni Calista: manatiling babaeng isinuko ng pamilya, o labanan ang kapalarang ipinataw sa kanya—kahit pa kapalit nito ang kanyang puso.

"I’m a good girl—until I got drunk in Vegas and married a panties-flaming-hot Irishman. Oops. I’ve always lived my life by the rules. Unlike my two sisters, I’m the good one. The responsible one. Going outside my comfort zone is when I wear red lipstick before five PM. That comfort zone of mine? It’s smashed to smithereens on a wild night in Las Vegas when I met—and married—Liam Gallagher. After one shot of tequila, then two, then too many to count, a good girl’s rules tend to disappear. And so do her panties, and her bra, and various other articles of clothing when she’s with an Irishman who knows his way around a woman’s body. Now my husband wants us to stay married. For six months. He says it’ll be worth my while. Considering our chemistry underneath the sheets, I can’t say that he’s wrong. Liam isn’t safe, though. Liam definitely isn’t comfortable. He’s like the male equivalent of wearing red lipstick in the daytime all wrapped up in an irresistible, dangerous package. Yet this stubborn Irishman isn’t about to let me go, drunken Princess Bride-themed Vegas wedding or no. Now I have to decide if I’m brave enough to break the rules for love."

Riley was always considered a normal girl, until one night she gets kidnapped. What happens when she falls in love with the man who took her from everything?
