Plot Summary of The Prince's Virgin Wife
"Prince Tomasso Scorsolino secretly maneuvers the job and hiring of Maggie Thomson. For a long time now, he has been seriously thinking about Maggie who has become his friend when he has been in college. Maggie has acted his housekeeper and they have enjoyed each other's company. Tom who has been widowed for 2 years already is ready to remarry and provide a mother to his two children. The only woman he can think and will accept is Maggie who exhibits a friendly and nice personality. Added to that is the undeniable attraction between them.
Maggie accepts a 2-year contract to be the nanny of Prince Tomasso's 2 children. It hasn't been any hardship at all to care for the two kids since they are well-behaved and very dear. Maggie has been tormented by her memories of Tom Prince the only man who has awakened her passion. However when he has brought his glamorous soon-to-be-wife 6 years ago, she is hurt and humiliated. Maggie keeps herself busy with jobs to forget about him. But one evening, Tom Prince comes back and thinking that it is one of her dreams, Maggie makes love to him. The next morning she is surprised to find out that Tom Prince and Prince Tomasso, her employer are one and the same. She is furious with Tom although Tom is finally happy that he is able to make love with Maggie. But they have not used protection and Tom tells her that he will marry her. Tom tells her that the reason why he hired her is to find out if she will be suitable as his wife and mother to his children. Maggie is shocked by Tom's actions and words. Because of the contract, she can't just walk away from Tom. Despite Tom's underhandedness, she is seduced by him and falls in love with him again. But she can't accept his proposal because she doesn't want him under any obligation. She is also insecure because his first wife has been beautiful and Tom doesn't express that he finds her equally beautiful. Moreover, she doesn't want to marry him if he doesn't love her at all. Tom has been a fool to let Maggie walk away 6 years ago. "
