The Swindler and the Fool

A cynical swindler, a clueless country man, and a marriage contract born from desperation. Han I-ryeong thought she was the smartest player in Joseon until her gang stabbed her in the back, leaving her to face the executioner's lash. Enter a massive, brawny oaf who volunteers to take her punishment in exchange for her hand in marriage. I-ryeong easily agrees, fully intending to rob him blind and vanish into the night. But her perfect escape plan crumbles in the bedroom. Beneath his sweet, dim-witted exterior lies a relentless, high-heat passion that leaves I-ryeong writhing like a worm and eagerly untying her own robes for more.
