She never even finished undergrad. Nobody knows — and she'd like to keep it that way.\u003cbr\u003e   Then she wakes up with her face smooshed on a toilet in a stranger's bathroom with a hangover from hell and twenty-seven pages of legal paperwork.

Walking away costs them each millions they don't have. This accidental fake marriage is a dangerous game cooked up by Seba's out-of-touch famous friends, and the legal contract is binding.
