• 3 stars: Many errors (mainly near ending). Husband showed no regard for his wife until she finally agreed to the divorce he filed and wanted to sleep with other men, something he agreed to allow her to do but then tricked her into only sleeping with him. Sammy was the better choice until he started acting extremely rash and immature. Overall annoying storyline but couple is sweet to each other once everything is figured out. ️: Unable to endure the greedy and unscrupulous people from his wife's family, Duke Arthur Kaplan demands a divorce from his wife, Roxanne. Knowing fully well that as soon as she gets divorce her family will sell her out to another man, the Duchess offers a bold proposal.

Roxanne then meets a kind gentle with a mask that seems to fulfill all of her desires and that feels strangely familiar.
