Heroine as usual finds herself in need of funds. Rich guy blackmails her into marriage in order to obtain his inheritance from his wicked stepmother. Hero's heart is like a rock ( la roche ) but at the end of it all despite attempts from the wicked stepmother and her son to sabotage the marriage and even hide the heroine in the wine cellars ( to make it look as if she ran away) LOVE triumphs!!!!! and all ends well.
