Hindi siya ang tunay na nobya. Sa araw ng kasal, napilitan si Naveda na isuot ang damit ng kapatid niya, akuin ang pangalang hindi kanya, at pakasalan ang lalaking hindi naman siya ang pinili.

Ngunit sa gitna ng kanyang pagbagsak, may isang lalaking handang baguhin ang lahat. Si Giovanni Delgado—mapanganib, makapangyarihan, at walang pakialam sa batas ng mundo—ang nag-abot sa kanya ng pagkakataong bumangon… at maghiganti. At sa sandaling itinapon siya ng lahat— “If they were foolish enough to throw you away, then let me be the man they’ll regret underestimating. Marry me.”

Isang kontrata lang dapat ito—limang piraso ng papel na magbabayad sa utang ng pamilya ni Jinnie at sasagot sa kalungkutan at kagustuhan ni Aiden. Walang damdamin, walang tanungan, puro sarapan lang. Pero habang tumatagal, ang simpleng kasunduan ay naging mabangis na laro ng pagnanasa kung saan bawat hawak ay parang apoy, bawat halik ay parang pampasabog, at bawat gabi ay nagpapakita ng mas marami pang masasamang bagay na kaya nilang gawin sa isa’t isa—kahit saan, kahit kailan, kahit na delikado at nakakahiya. Hanggang sa pareho na silang nalunod sa ligalig na hindi na nila kayang takasan pa.
