Emma Saxton is a single mother whose life is going nowhere. All her time is spent earning enough money to put food on the table, and she feels as though that will never change. After speaking with a friend, she calls Dr. Lachele at Matchrimony and agrees to meet a man at the altar and marry him immediately. She's lonely, but her main concern is her daughter, Josie, who is her entire world.
Tired of spending all his time working and knowing he needs a wife if he doesn't want his house to crumble down around him, Beau Bainbridge agrees to be introduced to his future bride at the altar. When he sees Emma walking toward him, he is immediately attracted. For him, little Josie is just a bonus. Will the formerly single mother be able to adjust to life as the wife of a man of wealth? Or will she continue to be afraid every day that something will go wrong and she'll once again be left alone?
