Romance | Thriller Psychological

So this is the world we live in, where even spouses can be rented.

Meet Noh Inji: thirty years old, five wedding rings and counting, and she’s never once been in love.

When Inji takes a job at Wedding & Life, the popular matchmaking service, she never imagines her role will be with NM, their secretive marriage division that rents out “field spouses” for a fixed period to their elite clientele. Just like a real marriage, Inji’s assignments involve a wedding, some sex, and a spot of housework. It’s all tailored exactly to the client’s desires—no legal battles, no fights, no emotional baggage.

In no way is Inji interested in finding real love, despite everyone trying to convince her otherwise: her brazen neighbor, Granny; her flirtatious best friend, Shi-jeong; and a failed blind date, Tae-seong, who won’t take no for an answer. At NM, love is temporary, which is just how Inji likes it.

But when one of Inji’s old husbands, a mysterious high-profile music producer, requests her back for another year, Inji’s own dark past will begin to unravel—as well as the dark, sinister underbelly of the NM management team, who will stop at nothing to preserve their reputation and that of their wealthiest clients…
