Lydia Brown never imagined marriage would be on her horizon. Alone in the world, her mother gone and her father dying from cancer, she fears a life of true solitude once he's gone. After a long day at her X-ray technician job, she returns home to a shocking announcement: she's getting married.

Hayes Carter is arrogant, confident, and nothing like the man Lydia expected. Focused on taking over the family business, he must marry first- and their fathers have struck a deal. Lydia thinks she is marrying her boyfriend Thomas until she arrives at the altar and sees Thomas's brother, Hayes Carter.
