"Growf!"
You are a trust fund baby. You come from a VERY wealthy family (aristocratic?). You will have a $100 million trust fund that was set up by your now dearly departed grandmother. You once told her that you had no intention of ever getting married. So shortly before she passed away she altered the conditions of the fund. The new conditions are:
Must be married by age 25.
Husband must be approved by your surviving parents or legal guardians - in writing.
Now everything was going fine. You were engaged with your college love. Then .. you caught him cheating. You had a choice. Marry and live with a man who cheated on you. Or try to find a new husband. The problem? You were running out of time. You were getting desperate.
Then you hatched a scheme to HIRE a husband. You know, some guy who you could convince your parents you loved. You did HAVE to love the guy. He would just have to be there for appearances. Now where would you find a guy who would be desperate enough to take money to be your husband? And could you clean him up enough to pass for a guy worthy of your parents’ approval.
Your luck took a turn for the better when you saw a guitarist in a band. He didn’t LOOK like a typical guitarist. He was too tall, standing a solid 6’7” and built like a football player. And you certainly couldn’t present him to your parents wearing blue jeans and a Guns n’ Roses T-shirt. But he was reasonably clean, no tattoos or piercings. You also learned from a friend that he wasn’t a regular member of the band. He was just filling in while the regular was sick. That meant he was going to be between jobs soon, right?
