After dying after a lifetime of being treated like a pushover, Isabel finds herself transported back to the past. Determined to change her fate, she immediately sets out to leave her toxic boyfriend and break free from her abusive family. Yet despite her efforts, financial struggles and legal restrictions make it nearly impossible for her to live independently.

Then she discovers a possible answer: a government housing program designed for newly married couples. To qualify, Isabel needs a husband. That’s when Sir Dylan appears — an ideal candidate in every way. For reasons she can’t quite understand, he agrees to become her pretend spouse, allowing them to secure the home Isabel has always longed for. But as they begin living under the same roof, the line between a fake marriage and a genuine relationship slowly starts to blur.
