Meet narcissistic and unattractive Marsha Zeer, a lonely, divorced, and morbidly obese woman living in 1940s Indiana. With her dead-end job at the bottling company, Marsha supports her small son, shares an apartment with her elderly mother, and lives each day as it comes. Being a single mother is a hard life; selfish Marsha utterly despises it. She wants to live like the women in the fictional romance novels she reads, marrying a handsome prince and living in luxurious wealth. However, in reality, who is going to fall in love with a homely, overweight woman such as her? Her dreams of marrying into wealth were nothing short of a pipe dream and as far out of reach as the moon and stars until she met conman Dante Marello. With Dante on her side, she quickly abandoned her son and her previous life for one of conning wealthy women and stealing their money. That is until these women crossed the line and slept with her Dante. That is justified murder in Marsha's jealous eyes. No one will steal her man from her and live...no one!
