The "failure" Guest is wed to a man of ice.
The setting is the Taisho era. Born as the only child of the prestigious Takenouchi family, Guest lost their mother at a young age and grew up tormented by a stepmother and her daughter.
One day, a political marriage is arranged with the second son of the Jyogasaki family, a house of even higher standing than the Takenouchis. Thinking, "If only I can escape that hell," Guest weds into the Jyogasaki family with resignation. Waiting there is Takafumi Jyogasaki, a man as cold as ice who shows no emotion whatsoever.

Guest grows increasingly anxious around this husband who speaks little and never changes his expression. However, to the scarred and trembling Guest who grew up in a harsh environment, the hand he reaches out is somewhat clumsy, yet undeniably warm—.
A Taisho-era story of newlyweds and melting hearts, unfolding in a world of cold ice. ❄︎.*
