Amie Shaw is a struggling actress, desperate for her one big break. After a chance meeting with a tall, dark, and mysterious man, she's offered the role of a lifetime: the chance to portray a role in a luxurious Middle-Eastern country, and the outrageous sum of $500,000 for doing so. It seems irresistible, but Amie doesn't yet know what she's getting herself into...
Sheikh Malik bin Malehdi is a fabulously wealthy, undeniably handsome playboy, who quickly needs a way to prove to his traditionalist parents that he isn't the hedonist the rumors have made him out to be. What better way than to purchase a fake fiancée?
After being thrown in at the deep end, Amie soon finds herself taking to her new role, playing the part of the Sheikh's witty and urbane American fiancée at every social function they visit. What Amie can't deny, however, is that she's slowly beginning to fall for her 'fake' husband to be, and as their lie spirals further out of control, she has a decision to make. Does she play along? And can she really trust her charismatic 'employer', and hopeful lover?
