Pretending to Be Poor for Love is a compelling, emotional tale of love, sacrifice, and the consequences of running from the past. Ethan Calloway, a billionaire heir to a powerful dynasty, has spent his life under the oppressive weight of his family's expectations. Desperate to escape the suffocating world of wealth and manipulation, he flees to a quiet town, hoping to build a new life free from the power struggles of his past.

In this small town, he meets Sarah, a strong, independent woman who runs a modest flower shop. What begins as a fleeting escape turns into an intense and genuine connection. Ethan finds himself falling in love with Sarah, but the dark shadow of his past looms over him. Fearing for her safety and wanting to protect her from the dangerous web of lies he's tangled in, Ethan pushes Sarah away, convinced that he's doing the right thing.

And in the end, can love survive the crushing weight of secrets and betrayal?
