Para tantanan ni Robert sa panggigipit at pamimilit si Alexa na pakasalan ito ay pinakiusapan ng dalaga na pakasalan siya ni Travis; ang lalaking natagpuan niya na walang malay at duguan sa gilid ng kalsada habang malakas ang buhos ng ulan. At bilang pagtanaw ng utang-na-loob sa kanya ay pumayag si Travis sa pakiusap ni Alexa.

Ngunit pagkatapos ng kanilang kasal ay sinundo ito ng mga kamag-anak ngunit nangako ito na babalikan siya para kunin. Isang Linggo ang lumipas ay sinundo siya ng tauhan ni Travis at isinama sa hotel kung saan ito nakatira. Ngunit sa halip na mahigpit na yakap ay isang contract marriage agreement ang isinalubong nito sa kanya. Napansin niya na ibang-iba na ito sa Travis na nakasama niya sa probinsiya.
