Plot
A waitress named Defne Topal (Elçin Sangu) finds herself in a love game when she urgently needs a large sum of money to pay off her brother's debt. Defne looks after her grandmother, her young sister and her older brother. Her father died when Defne and her siblings were very young after which their mother left to start life anew with another man.
One day, a man named Ömer İplikçi (Barış Arduç) kisses her abruptly outside the restaurant where Defne works to quickly rid himself of the blind date arranged by his aunt. Unknown to them, Ömer's aunt, Neriman (Nergis Kumbasar), witnesses the kiss in shock. Neriman later approaches Defne with an offer to marry and then leave the man she's renting her for, her husband's nephew Ömer. Neriman is ready to give 400,000 liras, but Defne only takes the money she needs (200,000 liras) and accepts the offer to free her brother from the people he is indebted to.
Neriman is desperate to find a girl for Ömer in order to please her father-in-law and Ömer's estranged grandfather, Hulusi İplikçi (Ferdi Merter). Hulusi has threatened Neriman and her husband Necmi (Levent Ülgen) that unless he sees Ömer married in the next 6 months, he will sell all the family property including Necmi and Neriman's house. Under Neriman's instructions, Defne begins work at Ömer İplikçi's footwear company as his personal assistant, unaware that he is the man who had forcefully kissed her until she sees him on her first day of work.
She has 6 months to make Ömer fall in love with her, marry him and then leave him. Things become complicated when, without intending to, Defne also falls in love with Ömer, now torn between not wanting to deceive him and hiding the true reason she came into his life for fear that he will never want to see her again.
