Storyline
Logline:
On what should have been his wedding day, a heart-broken artist is unexpectedly proposed to by a mysterious woman who claims they were fated to meet. Their impulsive marriage ignites a chain of secrets, betrayals, and family conspiracies, testing love, loyalty, and the power of destiny.
Synopsis:
Troy Bennett waits at the county courthouse to marry Lily Sinclair, but she never arrives. Instead, Gabriella Carter, a striking stranger, steps forward and proposes on the spot. Their sudden marriage shocks the wealthy Sinclair family and unleashes long-buried resentments.
As Troy and Gabriella’s love deepens, Lily and her sisters Rose and Iris along with the cunning Julian and his scheming mother Marlene plot to pull them apart. Lies, staged accidents, and explosive confrontations build toward a finale where true love and dark secrets collide.
