Michelle Silas may have a father with millions in her bank account, but after she sabotages the wedding to her dad's twenty-four year old fiancé, he cuts her off financially. Banks won't give her a loan to go to school, grants are not an option, and she lives in studio apartment with two roommates. So when Michelle met Bryce Santiago, a college sophomore who is broke beyond words but doesn't qualify for Financial Aid, a plan instantly formed in her mind. If Michelle and Bryce were married, they could qualify as independents and get grants to pay for school, books, and even some extra expenses. Thus, the "fafsa" marriage is arranged.

What starts out as a scheme to get them four year degrees without debt becomes much more. Their plan causes the two strangers to move in, act like a married couple, and cash their grants checks. They insisted it would all be for show, but what happens when their just-for-the-money marriage starts to feel too real?
