Description:
Clemson Reade, a successful businessman looking for marriage, and Effie, a U.S. diplomat, are a contemporary couple. However, Effie prioritizes her career over their relationship. While Clemson meets Tarji, a princess skilled in charming men, he realizes he desires a more traditional woman. Princess Tarji's father is the king of Bukistan, a nation rich in oil. To ensure smooth political relations during the courtship between Clemson and Tarji, the State Department assigns a diplomat to oversee protocol – Effie!
